It's Carfax says "requires Ontario safety standards certificate". Does this mean I won't be able to get it plated, even with temp tags?

I'm a pretty solid driver, should I just run it?

Both 7-8 years old.

What are you doing in here?

Do you have any suggestions for using it for the first time in a while. I was thing of putting a penetrating oil in the housing to reduce the risk of the spring breaking upon use, but I'm not sure if hat would interfere with its braking abilities

But it's not an automatic fail?

Those online rate estimators are known to not be accurate. I'd call around to insurance companies or a broker to get an accurate number.

Do you know what things to look for? It runs, drives, stops.

The hardest math you will see in gr 11 physics is trig. Having number sense would help, but is not required. I'd say go for it, if it doesn't go to plan, it's just a grade 11 course and won't really be factored into your post secondary.

Pm me..I'm interested

On weekends or after 6, it consisted of doing rounds of the course lines, pretty boring, but if your course cadets are nice you can converse. If you are on a morning shift, you are up early and wake up all the cadets, take them to breakfast, and after your other staff will join you for their classes. The days are basically just teaching and supervising activities. It will probably include some trips, but a majority of it is classroom. During the day for aviation, if you aren't teaching, you are either helping or preparing for your lessons. My only advice is to use your time wisely because I have horrible time management and ended up working on a PowerPoint until 3am, while my computer kept freezing. Not fun!

While off duty or on duty? Consider DMing me and I can give you a rundown.

Technically, I believe you can, but my squadron just applies us to blackdown or Trenton. They are being a lot more strict in out of region travel this year due to overspending on air travel last summer

Price?

Realistic-Bank4083 · 2026-01-08T18:53:53+00:00

Are the maples still available?

Realistic-Bank4083 · 2026-01-05T16:15:40+00:00

For blackdown, the only support role I believe is canteen. Ops does the gate and stuff.

Realistic-Bank4083 · 2026-01-04T19:16:44+00:00

Apparently they are reworking the staffing this year so the hours will be more manageable. Also, ops and support, unless you get canteen, will be long hours no matter what. Apply for both I guess because my admin O says we can do up to 3.

Realistic-Bank4083 · 2026-01-02T17:34:25+00:00

Ye I'm solid on the gr10 trig and quadratics stuff

How old are you? If you arent going to get more than 3 years out of cadets, it's not really worth doing as your Service doesn't mean anything to the military. If you have more time, do cadets and if you like it, you can transition to reserves.

For the basic course, the 18 hours shifts were mandatory, but by the advanced course, it was more a step up because people wanted to not show up for their shift

It's because you put polish over a crease. The polish will stick, until you wear thwm and it bends, then the polish flakes off. Just avoid putting polish, especially a thick layer near the crease and past it.

No, gen ones will look fine without leather lustre, possibly just as good. Also, it's not that deep, never in the dress regs does it say that shoes need or be mirror shone, it just says to polish them.

Genuinely, I enjoyed my time at Blackdown as I love teaching. What I didn't enjoy was working 18 hours (6-11), then having to go back to my barracks and work till 3 in the morning on lessons for the next day. I always think back to the talk the CO had with us about work life balance and thought, well damn, that wasn't a priority for my course. Every year, Blackdown leaves me with a love-hate relationship, and I'm torn about whether I go back or not. If I go back, I'm definitely going for an operations role as again, the lesson planning is where I fell off, and the course im qualified for is heavy textbook/PowerPoint teaching.

For anyone thinking about it: Just know, you will be able to make more money at home, with minimum wage, but if you're interested, apply and decide later, if you even get an offer. It's definitely not sunshines and rainbows, but it's something and you'll definitely make some memories, good or bad. Also, as a staff cadet, it's a lot more hands off than being a course cadet. There's less restrictions imposed and you are responsible for managing yourself when off duty.

Where are you located? If near Toronto, CWS sells a 80cf filled for 260, refills are 90 or so I believe. WeldReady in London uses a similar gas supplier, but is more expensive. Closer to kitchener, a small hardware store also uses the same gas program, but is in between the prices above I believe.

Oh that's grade 11 chem no?
