Hey “Shawn” !
I would like to join The Join Task Force Two (JTF2) .
Right now I’m in the Air Cadets and I’m wondering if I have to visit a Military Academy in order to advance.
Thanks.

@ Gabe, u posted like 3 years ago, but just to let u know ( if u even read these anymore), im 16 i train every day also in montreal. i train for several hours daily, outdoors. in snow, rain or even when its really hot. i wake up every morning at 5am and workout for 2 hours before school and then work out for over 2 hours after. I can do a 100 push ups in a row and then jump up to a pull up bar and do 15 pull ups. i can also swim for over a mile. I also paintball every weekend. ( which im quite good at, but rlly paintballing has very little to do with shooting real guns)

Im still worried I may not make JTF-2 but i will do anything to make it.

As a member of the Canadian army i can tell you that there are all kinds of coloured members serving not only in the army but with jtf2 aswell, and for the answer to your second question untill a women meets the physical requirements to be a part of jtf2 and by that i mean the PT test (pushup’s, situp’s,chinup’s,and of course the run), there wont be any women , it has nothing to do with gender or colour, thats all there is to that.

Ray Ray, I am Canadian military and I promise that we appreciate all the thanks we get. As for your question it is simply a matter of population. The young white male is the largest population in the Canadian forces not to say we are not diverse but it’s simply the truth. Assaulters, as pictured in the pictures and videos you have seen, are only part of the JTF2 population, there are also support trades and specialists. I know for a fact that there are many different races and I am sure different genders within the JTF2. I hope this answers your questions.

I’m not in the military but in the Army cadets of canada, and i noticed the same thing how there are very few people of skin colour besides white, and i asked a warrant here, he said it’s because usually they only accept people born in canada into the military other wise you have to pass this special test, which alot of people don’t pas, only very few do.

Hi All,

I’m not in the military, but was looking into who protect this great country of ours and what sacrifice they must endure to make it into such an elite force . First off if anyone is in the Canadian military and/or special forces….Thank you for all you do. I came upon this site and I am just curious as to why there are no people of colour or women in the JTF2 & other parts of the Canadian military elite. Why is that? OF course I am just basing my question on the videos I have seen on YOu TUBE and other web sites…so excuse my ignorance. Thank you

To get in as a “scout sniper” (that’s not what it’s called here but the concept is the same), you would first have to enroll and do all your training as an infantry soldier. This includes all of the basic military training ie. Basic MIlitary Qualification or BMQ follwed by Soldier Qualification or SQ and then finally Basic Infantry Qualification or BIQ also known as DP1 Infantry. After all that is done, then you are a trained infantry soldier and will be posted to one of the Battalions of the 3 Regiments (Royal Canadian Regiment, Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry, or the Royal 22ième Régiment).

From there you have to request and excel and be selected to undergo training for Recconnaisance Platoon, or Recce Platoon. Once you are finished the training far that and are on the Recce platoon, then you can excel and once again request for training on sniper weapons and such. It is a lengthy process and all the while you will be doing excercises, garrsion duty and will most likely be deployed overseas.

Have you guys ever heard about field cock? Its what we do in the military. When you come back from a week long excercise in the bush we dont shower, just wash our face, throw on some deoderant and try to get a girl at the bar to blow us, thus, field cock. Just thought i’d share that with you pussies.
