Does anybody know what happened to the C5 gas masks? According to Wikipedia we have 77,800 C5 masks, but I remember hearing that there was a manufacturing defect and they were all returned.

How does it work when selling your house that is above 1.25 acres? I know an appraisal has to be done based on 1.25 acres, but what happens if you sell for above the appraisal amount? Are you out of pocket for the difference?

Hello everyone,

I’m looking for some advice from anyone who may have gone through a similar situation. I was on Course 1.1 but unfortunately did not complete it. After that, I was sent to MIR, where I underwent a series of medical examinations. During those examinations, I was diagnosed with cancer.

I’m now trying to understand what kind of support or benefits may be available to me as a CAF member. If anyone has been through something similar or has knowledge about the process, I would really appreciate your advice.

Specifically, I’m wondering:

1. Am I eligible for any compensation or benefits?
2. Are there any CAF or Veterans Affairs Canada programs that I should apply for? 3)What documents should I start collecting now? 4)Is there anything you wish you had known earlier?

Any advice or personal experience would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much.

Posted there coming sept, any atv trails, swimming holes, things to see, etc? Just gettin a feel for it before we are there...and of course best pizza joint?

Question for those who have been there - I'm heading to Latvia in the near future for a while, just wondering what options I'll have for mobile internet.

I'm a fairly heavy user, will be streaming/gaming a lot.

Not expecting hard lines, so mostly looking for non-limited phone plans that can tether, or a dedicated mobile router.

I’ve called 9 different extensions today and none have answered. I get that some people are hard to reach, but before I finish going down this call list, is there a base closure I’m unaware of?

Thanks!

Good day.

Does the moving company that is bringing your F&E from point A to point B call you or let you know that your stuff is on the way or do you call base traffic and they let you know if its arrived?? We are arriving in Esquimalt today and I still haven't gotten any word from anyone.

Thanks
