For those that are making fun of the training you see in the video, this is not actually "army training" this is armed forces entry training for all new members of the forces whether in army, navy, air force. Personal go on to more intense training depending on the trade they picked.
It gives a close family/team feel, i like it
The Canadians have always fought for freedom. Without much buzz, they never let down anyone in the World and other wars. Without any direct gains but Honor and keeping up the light of liberty. All the best from Greenland.

"V"
clusterguard more Americans gave their lives for Freedom and peace Canada only lost a 158 men when America lost roughly 6,000 men
Christopher Bateman so you’re saying that the 158 that lost there lives weren’t worth it?
Congratulations! Your standards for irrelevance are the highest ever!
Canada? One of the world's nicest countries with about the best trained army. Huge respect from Scotland.
"Respect diversity and human rights" (zooms in on black person) lol
Lmao
Best thing I ever did. I put in two tours with a total of 8.5 years. I got out at the end of the first gulf war in 92. I still miss the service to this day. Once a Soldier always a soldier.

I agree BUT just looked it up and i'm pretty sure that the minimum push ups for a male who is 34 and under, is only 19
love this military stuff...cant wait to serve, respect from calgary,
Respect to you mr. lam. Regardless if you were last or not. You still made it bro. So respect to you sir✊ it takes a strong mind to get through this sort of training.
I need this in my life. taking my aptitude test on the 26th. Hoping I get a job offer within the year.
+TNGtv +WISECRACK I took my aptitude test on Sept 26 2015, Had my interview and medical on May 23 2016. My medical info got back from Ottawa early October 2016. Got my job offer a week later. Now i get sworned in Nov 2 and head to to BMQ NOV 12 2016 . It took me about a year. I know some people got a job offer 2 years later after they took the initial aptitude test. I guess it matters what trade your heading in to.
***** Yeah that's really quick.
AVN thats airforce right.. Congrats though where is your bmq going to be? Im heading to st jean quebec.
Thank god i'm a winter person. Bmq in the winter for me is much better than dealing it with summer heat and mosquitos lol.
***** I'll be only 4 weeks ahead. The recruiter mentioned all recruits attending bmq during December gets a 3 week Christmas.holiday break (DEC 12 - JAN 4 ).
Ill be starting back up again when you first arrive lol.
But anyways wish yeah the best of luck bro.
Get ready to join us up here in Cold Lake for your first posting ;)
You have a bigger chance since you have a family however duty before self. If we need people somewhere then they'll move you if they have to.
an excellent clip to watch for those looking to join the Canadian Forces
for those that think this course is a cakewalk, it isn't. This and my BMQ Land were the 2 toughest courses, if you're not in peak physical condition it is brutal, I learned that the hard way. Your instructors instead of playfully punching your shoulder, will essentially make you're life a living hell. They want to weed out people, for example my course started off with 45 and we graduated with 18. BMQL was a different story we had 45 and lost 3 but 2 were due to injury, a broken leg and blown knee. It is important to have a good mindset and to never give up no matter how hard it gets. Once you're done you can look back and realize how far you've come and have a sense of accomplishment.
Yeah whatever you say POG
BusterThomasB It's funny because you called her a POG. Laughing hard here.
You really didn't get the sarcasm? Nice you went straight to cursing me out. Mature.
I wasn't "cursing you out" I was merely going 50%-50%. yeah how mature of me by not knowing how comments cant indicate "sarcasm"
I was just indicating how some people overlook others jobs for now reason
That's great!! thanks for uploading. I remember the days they followed us and made this film!!
Good intro video , well done, good luck to all,,
Canadian Forces one of the best equipped and trained in the world.
I love military stuff...cant wait to serve!
It is my goal to Join the Forces after I graduate. What an Honor and privilege it will be to serve alongside generations of Canadians.
Contemplated joining for the past few years, currently in Police Foundations 4th semester on my way to graduate, I believe it is time to make the next step point me to a recruiter! , truly make a difference in the world. To stop the ones whom look to bring harm to our country, and help the ones who need it. As David Grossman once wrote " I am a sheepdog, i live to protect the flock, and confront the wolf". I love this country
Did this many years ago and was an amazing accomplishment. congrats to the new blood who have done the same.
What do you do now?
I'm incredibly excited for the coming months. Just went through my interview and am hoping for an offer soon. BMQ, you're next!
you get an offer yet? I plan to join as an officer in two years when I finish my degree. Not sure when to start the application though, as I don't want to get an offer while I'm still in school and have to refuse it, but I also don't want to be waiting around for several years after graduating before I hear anything :P
Victoria M
You can start your application process now.
Begin your ROTC while still attending university (you'll have gainful employment between your winter and fall semesters - May to Aug). Good luck.
@@victoriam6171how did it go for you?’ Long time after this post
3 years in sofar as an air craft structures tech. we had our course outsourced to ENA in st Hubert Quebec so we had to live on the ST jean garrison for a year and bus there and back... however we did have wifi and staff gym, cafeteria, etc.
if you have any question or concerns I can probably answer them lol.
Love the Canadian Military Forces.
Greetings and respect from the US>
Bravo !!!!
As We Serve , we are so PROUD !!!
Of all of you !!!!
For the teenagers contemplating whether to join or not.Join the reserves the army is a awesome experience you'll meet great people and get great training
I'm only 17 but I plan on applying for the Bold Eagle program in the summer and late on after high school, looking into the Canadian Forces
I did my training in '74 and did 20 years...it was tough back then and it's tough now. ...and there's no life like it..
good luck all going for this.
Nice me too i still have 5 years to go until i graduate grade 12. I am going to start training in grade 9 to make sure i am ready and also start to wake up earlier to change my eternal body clock.

You are in for a shock buddy. Check this out. ua-cam.com/video/GxGh9BGc_Po/v-deo.html
If you did truly serve in the military then thank you for your service.
I had no problem completing this course but hell my engineer DP1/RQ Sapper was something else
Its challenging and you just have to play the game.
14 weeks i will never forget in my life :)
I'm signing up, I keep watching this video to pump myself up
Me too
worst day of my life was when i went for my tests and failed the color vision section. tried a second time and no go,, but to all u guys in the forces you have my utmost respect =)
@ TheGuilbran I have heard you can only apply online now. The interview etc. is when you are with staff.
if you did truly serve in the military then thank you for your service
That’s for regular forces, my BMq is in valcartier Quebec for 4 weeks, army reserve!
i am planning on joining the forces and being an infantryman but i still have a lot of work to do too get ready to join the forces
Ahhh memories, some great, some painful. Glad I'm finished that part.
Right on! Im heading out the end of May.
Me too :P but I graduated this year, My well worth it wait is almost over, I hope yours goes quick.
I respect everyone who risks there lives for this great contry
Country
OMG! I cant wait, I've been working at MacDonald's for the last 3 years, Just finished graduation, and when march comes I apply :P (March could not come any quicker -.-)
Are you able to go wherever you want on weekends after the first 6 weeks or can people only come visit you?
I wish I could get into this... Im trying to get into canadian military and Its such a long wait
ohDannyBoiii Yea the Canadian forces only have 68k troops all together and their training is pretty outdated even when they go to tech school for their specific job after their BMQ they still don't even get field training on those situations, it is also odd that they have a specific job to enlist for for being in the honor guard band. In the u.s you have to do basic combat training where you train as infantry then have to go to training for your MOS and honor guard band is extracurricular done by anybody in any MOS because it's voluntary and its temporary and not an actual job. I agree they need to have seperate basic training for seperate branches and not to keep comparing it to the u.s but here the navy recruits are trained how to take control of situations on a ship by simulations and field exercise even on how to take out fires on a ship or to get ready to fire on a target simply in basic training no matter what their job is same for air force, marines army and even the coast guard. But the air force and navy have started becoming more physically demanding but I get what you're saying. That's why here unless you had a certain MOS that is needed the army, Air force and navy won't let you re enlist if you're prior service with a different branch.
what good looking lads! I hope one day to be a part of it
This normatives for run in a simple lightweight sportswear or for run in uniform and full equipment (including body armor, weapons and helmet)?
Is the Canadian army now using C7A3 rifles, because I heard the C7A2 does not have a free-floating barrel??
i am very excited I have always wanted to be in the army im starting to train for it 2 years till I graduate i want to be in the Infantry
Does anyone know if combatives training is part of BMQ?
are you aloud to use a go pro during basic training?
I'm so psyched!
Finished BMQ in June 2013. Currently posted in Gagetown NB
Just 4 more years of school. But I'm not entirely sure what to do, Electrical and Mechanical Engineer, or an Electrical and Mechanical Engineer Officer. Which one would you recommend?
I have two years until it’s time to go and right now im kinda scared for what the future brings
what if you are in Vancouver BC. where do you go for training?
Riley Osborne actually no as of Jan 2014 there are 68k troops in all counting reservists in that number. There are 400k soldiers within the army's national guard component alone.
What are normatives of a physical training in the Canadian armed forces?
For example, for how much time (for how many minutes) I have to run a 3 or 5 or 6 or 10 km?
Good old BMQ cannot wait to get back in the Force!
just wanted to know is it better to apply to CF online or in person and why?
Do they do some boxing or martial arts there? Im 16 n leaving for the summer to go there but gonnna miss boxing lol
Does a reservist have to do the Basic Training?
I graduate in 2 years (2015) and I've already started training, it's not as hard as you may think, the hardest part is passing the medical ( eyesight, height, weight and reflex) a lot of people get turned Down because of that. I want to join the air force.
My buddy did his reserve bmq in Fredericton for 6 weeks?
hey guys, how bad is the gas chamber / gas hut training? has anyone done it recently? is it really that bad?
its free to join there,but i'm not quite sure its gonna be hard for me.Well i can do swimming,push ups,sit ups and that's all...
Sent my application in for the Reserves on June 11. Waiting on the call to start training. Been working out since April to try and get a head start, just yesterday I went on 2 5km walks... admittedly it was to the bar and back lol but hey, it's a good work out none the less :P Got a good sweat on the go both ways.
Did you get in?
I've watched almost all these videos
bmq looks so fun gonna join
Im leaving for basic in a month to be a combat engineer, what should I expect for it? I cant find anything good on the internet
Is that at CFB Borden?
I'm going to enlist!
What if you cant swim??
keep in mind you dont have your frag vest on at all in basic. Makes it much easier.
How often do you get time off to visit friends and family and for how long?
Sundin456 during basic or after you are done your training?
I joined the Navy in 1974 as an Ordinary Seaman in the Sonarman trade. I served 21 years and retired as a Lieutenant (N). The Navy encouraged me to finish my high school and then sent me to University of Manitoba in Winnipeg to finish my Bachelor Of Arts. Somewhere along the line I changed classification to the Military Police and spent the rest of my career in the MP. It was a challenging life but I wouldn't change a thing.
Keep in mind this is only the basic training for all service members, including mail men, and office workers. It’s actually even easier now. But if you go a combat trade (mainly infantry, combat engineer, etc) your trade training will be twice as long. And it will be pretty old school. I know courses usually start with 42 people and will end with 21 or so.
How is it easier if you can share please?
@@camaleon18 they’re no longer allowed to throw your stuff around and trash your place. And the fitness standards are lower. However if you choose a combat trade it won’t leave you prepared for the trade training. Well.. at least not for combat engineer
I still have 5 years till i graduate grade 12 then i wanna join, I wanna be a combat engineer, but Im worried about only being able to make bridges or blow some stuff up, i wanna fight still.im confused, but i still have lots of time till i can serve to think
depending on what you want to do they wont be taking apps for most of the forces check on their website first or you'll be forced to wait the next two years
I want to apply for Edmonton city Police. Can I do this course? Should I do this course and will it counted as a plus?
I was going to join reg force, then afrer my contract join OPP
would this course be hard for a 16 year old male in the reserves
Hard for anyone but being young would actually give an advantage.
I had an interview with the Sergeant just a couple, maybe 3 weeks ago. Gave him some more info, and he told me I just needed some more references. Told me that my application is pretty competitive now. The only issue is that I live 5 hours away from Brigadier James Curry Jefferson Building, and he told me they're not accepting applicants that far away because the long drive might be too much of a strain for the recruits. I called him with a reference, and said I'll do whatever it takes.
What does it matter where you live? Don’t all soldiers reunite and live in one place?
Does anyone know what the minimum push up / situp ect amount is thx.
The minimum is around 10 but if you do that you go through a specialized training program for 28-90 days you want to hit 19 pushups minimum to avoid that.
They changed the fitness tests as of 2012 or 2013, I can't remember what to.
BMQ is only the first step in the Canadian military. The real challenge i soldier qualification SQ which varies from 2 weeks to 13 weeks. Everyone no matter your trade or branch dose SQ. Radio operators do 11 weeks SQ infantry do 13 weeks SQ.
In the Canadian Military everyone is a soldier first and expected to fight, there trade is secondary. In the Canadian Military Supply Techs do all the jobs and are trained in all fields of supply tech. Where as in USA its separated training and jobs. So that means a Canadian Supply Tech is allot better trained than its American counter part. This applies to all fields of the CF this is what makes Canada one of the best trained Military's in the world. Now if only we had the funding to have the best equipment and lots of it.
14 weeks? Dang, back in 2006 I took part in the "experimental" 13 week course. And yeah Canada has an Army.. have for Hundreds of years..
Is this still accurate as to what its like in BMQ or has it changed alot
Still accurate, but the physica (EXPRES) test has changed. The push ups and sit ups have been taken out of the test and replaced with other activities.
I think I'm gonna finish up what College I got left here, then move back to Newfoundland, join the Reserves, and finish my education at MUN as a Reservist. Since jobs in history are few and far between, I'll probably join the military afterwards anyways, which is one of the many reasons why I want to join the Reserves now.
and for those of you prepping for BMQ, focus on lungs and legs. upper body is also important but having no lungs or legs will make a decent portion of BMQ difficult and distracting. i knew this with my family all being ex army at some point in the last 10 years. one thing i didnt do was swim before i left. get into the pool and do some swimming or if you cant, get some lessons. 50% of our platoon failed the swim test and thats not an exaggeration! best of luck
What if you don’t pass the swimming test? I want to join but I can’t swim to save my life
Is there a hand grip test in BMQ in 2020? Im so confused cause i suck at hand grip. People say that there is a grip test but my brother said there isnt when he did it (in 2016-17)
Did BMQ in 2014, no hand grip test then, and they haven't brought it back
@@SnoopyBlexican Thanks!!
This video is outdated now. BMQ is now 10 weeks not 14. I hear it’s going down to 8 weeks. I know that the pool has been closed for years. The force test is completely different now. Sand bag lifts, sand bag carries, etc. The standard has been lowered. Things that used to disqualify you from join, for example flat foot, have been lifted. I breezed through BMQ, but if you join a combat trade (with the exception of artillery, and armoured) know that the trade training lasts twice as long and it’s actually a living hell on earth.
@@Shiggy_ thanks! Are you in the reserve?
Sergeant Serge no
I'm leaving in 2 weeks for bmq the fitness qualification changed a little then what's in the video
Whats changed?
oh man i cant swim
Rene Roux don't worry about it
ok so can they teach you how to
Rene Roux not really, but the swim test isn't vital. You'll do pool PT with a life belt. Like 10 people on my platoon did that. Don't worry out it
OK thank you man
Also the pool is under construction right now; if you're going in soon then you won't be doing your bmsst in St. Jean, but later on somewhere.
I heard there's an autobiography you have to write about yourself? Anything else like that?
+IsnanaDayton Nah, just the bio. Every course you'll ever take wants you to submit a bio about yourself so that the staff can "get to know you."
Hey everyone, I'm curious if anyone knows the minimum requirement for push ups, pull ups, and hand grip strength. Thanks
+PeanutButterJellyChickenTuna Sandwach They no longer do those for fitness testing. They now use the FORCE test which uses the main physical movements required of a soldier. A lot of people say it is actually easier than the previous traditional testing
Nice!...
Can't wait to join once i am of age, just hope i make it in haha
Ive been waiting 5 years to get in an unhonestly im still going to go in once im givin my chance. The only problem im alot less fit then i used to be and it makes me nervous
They havent replied to you in 5 years???
no i been trying to get for 5 years. Just a bad time to try and join since major missions are over
Josh Heighton Wow you must of done really bad on the CFAT or are applying for a job they rarely bring anyone new into.
CFAT was fine just kind of got lost in the paper several times. That happens when you move a lot
I just turned 24 this month and the path in front of me is unclear. I've had an interest in the military for a long time and think it could be for me after years of consideration.
Currently I'm an unorganized, unfit, undisciplined person. It's my goal to get in much better shape and start following a strict regiment, upgrade my education to prove this is something I want, and enlist.
If anyone has any advice for me on what to focus on, i'd really appreciate it. Merry Christmas everyone.
+Steven M go talk to a recruiter. And start going for runs. All it takes to change for tomorrow is to start today.
I worked at the base in Farnham for several months. Was I ever a pain in the ass :)
i cant wait to join up
haha yeah, it's a sucky time but you get an amaxing feeling of accomplishment after.
plus you end up liking it
How much do you get paid during basic training after deductions from housing and rations? I can't find it on their website.
About $600 on the 15th and last day of the month
back in 2010 when I went through St.Jean it was about $565 every 1st and 15th. considering you have all you can eat three meals per day and housing, its not bad. it gets better once you're stationed and qualified. some trades start making $5000 a month out the gate. do the math in the civvi world with student debt etc etc.
