First off, we're talking about the Canadian military here, not USA.


Well then at least you won't have to actually do anything.

But actually, I joined the Air Force, (USA) and it is pretty sweet.

What about intervention to stop conflict, which was Canada's focus up until Afghanistan?

BTW @rushorz: How far away from New West do you live(purely out of curiosity)? From the transit time, it sounds like you are either in North Van (horrible transit from what I've heard) or east of Abbotsford.
Darkness called...but I was on the phone, so I missed him. I tried to *69 darkness, but his machine picked up. I yelled "Pick up the phone, Darkness", but he ignored me. Darkness must have been screening his calls.

You mean like, sending your nation's military into a foreign nation, to pick a side and fight the other? What if their people are in the midst of their Great Revolution, who are you to intervene?

Or do you mean intervention as more like Operation Ajax?
People who fail to distinguish Socratic Method from malicious trolling are sadly stupid and not worth a response.

im sorry but the lack of proper info on this subject drove me nuts,

first off, THERE IS NO CONTRACT IN THE RESERVES, meaning you get the life experience but can quit the day you realize your a pussy,

second, As a reservist you don't just get deployed, you HAVE TO ASK and will 9 times out of 10 be shrugged off, unlike the states, Canada has much less soldiers in Afghanistan and for that we only send our best soldiers (dah)

third, the army WILL pay for some types of education just ask your recruiter before you join if its covered?

fourth, the reserves is a great thing to put on a resume.. dah

and last but not least, USUALLY training is kept in your own province, but even if it isnt, you'd probably go to Wainright (idk if i spelt that right) for training, and the army pays for your transportation,

to become an infantryman, (and there is infantry groups in BC) http://www.army.forces.gc.ca/39cbg/content_e.html

that would be your brigade,

3 courses must be completed to become a soldier;

BMQ, SQ and BIQ each for reserves about 3 weeks long, you are payed throughout the whole ride, the reserves is a BIG life changing decision don't join if you arn't ready
