We are proud to introduce a new Online Registration Tool to make the registration process easier to join cadets! Parents/guardians and prospective cadets can no...w visit our website at www.canada.ca/join-cadets to receive information to help them start the registration process. The tool will gather their contact information as well as the unit they are interested in joining and forward it to the corps/squadrons’ generic mailbox. Corps and squadrons will then be able to contact the parent/guardian to answer any questions and arrange for the completion of the registration process. This is the first release of the new Online Registration Tool. It is the first of many improvements meant to support the current registration process, it does not replace the required documentation or FORTRESS data entry requirements. The Online Registration Tool will continue to evolve to streamline the current registration process.

If you were wondering what biathlon was all about here it is! "Cadet biathlon develops power, endurance, strength, skill, precision and calm under pressure for cadets. The sport is a combination of cross-country skiing and marksmanship. But it is not that simple. After skiing fast and hard, biathletes must calm themselves to take accurate and controlled shots at targets 50 meters away. In a single race cadet competitors can ski up to 10 kilometers and shoot 20 targets. For the cadet, the clock is always running. It's action-packed, physically-demanding and extraordinary to watch. Biathlon is just one of the many opportunities the Cadet Program can offer Canada’s youth. Check into a cadet corps or squadron near you to learn more about what Cadets has to offer."

Today, we remember and honor those brave Canadians who took part in the many battles that lead to the liberation of the Netherlands 75 years ago today. Told through the eyes of Canadian Lieutenant Wilf Gildersleeve of the Seaforth Highlanders and of Marguerite Blaisse, a Dutch civilian, this Heritage Minute commemorates the sacrifice of Canadians who fought and celebrates the bond formed between Canada and the Netherlands. #CadetsRemember... #CanadaRemembers See more

Look out your window. You may not realize it, but for those of us who live in Atlantic Canada, we're looking at a former battle ground. Off the coast of New Brunswick and P.E.I, U-Boats prowled the Gulf of St. Lawrence for targets; naval officers gathered in Halifax to prepare and strategize; convoys took in one last stop at St. John's before the perilous journey overseas. For some, through the fog, Cape Spear would be their last glimpse of Canada. The Battle of the Atlanti...c claimed many young men and women. Such the price of victory. And so we're surrounded by a watery battleground. A dark and deep resting place for Canadian sailors, soldiers, and aviators. They paid the ultimate sacrifice. With the victory of the Battle of Atlantic secured, victory in Europe was assured. The freedom of all Canadians was then is now and shall forever be the legacy of that courageous band of comrades. Canada's youth will remember those who never returned from the Battle of the Atlantic; they will remember those who returned, but were changed forever; they will remember those who who serve Canada even now. We will remember them. #BOA75 #RCNRemembers #CanadaRemembers
