You’d make a really convincing Pedro pascal stunt double.
Thanks for the tips! Taking Reserve BMQ in the fall. The second (last) ball cap is best, IMHO.
Thank you for the comment and good luck on your course!
Excellent video! Very helpful! 👍👍👍
Glad it was helpful!
Can you do one of these for the Army? Love the videos!
Thank you for the great video! You mention that smoking/vaping is permitted. I’m wondering what the rules are around nicotine pouches like Zonnic or Zyn. Many ppl are now using those as smoking alternatives, as they get the nicotine without all the other harmful toxins from a cigarette. Thank you!
Great video! Are you allowed to bring face creams / body lotions? What is the shower situation like at the base, do we get 5 mins to shower or 30 mins, what is it like?
Great video! I appreciate how clear and articulate and enthused you are about the whole process. Couple quick questions for you if you don't mind. For Mod 3 you say around the 27 minute mark of this video that officers in training may be awarded with a weekend off base if all goes well. But in so saying you imply NCMs, with the shorter training window are not eligible for such an award. Is that accurate? I know someone in Mod 2 hoping to do Mod 3 soon and am looking at logistics of meeting up with them before, on weekend during or after training if possible. It seems before and after would hinge around military issued prearranged travel plans we would have no control over. And are likely not to involve off base civilian accommodations at any point. Is that accurate? If they are not allowed off base on weekends, are civilians allowed to visit trainees in Valcartier? Or would that conflict too much with weekend activities? What about the graduation ceremony at the end? I appreciate the content and commitment to clear accurate information. Thanks,
Thank you for the excellent detailed question. NCMs do not get a weekend off during the course, and visitors are not allowed. Guests are normally invited to the graduation parade. The best time to plan to get together will be immediately after graduation. Usually the flight is the following morning and graduates will be allowed to get accommodations off base the night of graduation. Hope this helps!!
Thanks for the video. Regarding hats... humble suggestion, both looks great, yet it would be nice if we imitate Americans and have a Navy Store with different types of merchandise. Canex is very limited regarding products of this nature.
This is great. I would add: some protective gloves if you, like me, are allergic to the CLP fluids that are used to clean the weapons. My hands were already too dry and swollen; then when they came in contact with the CLP, my fingers swelled up and were painful. I could not use my cell phone fingerprint ID for about a month afterwards, due to the swelling on my finger pads!
This is a good tip. Usually rubber gloves are included with cleaning kits. If not, you can request them. I was a BMQ instructor this summer and we always tried to fulfill reasonable requests, but I also acknowledge there were sometimes delays in providing necessary items.

This may be a stupid question but why do NCO members not get issued Cadpat again?
are you allowed to take books to read in the armyy?
I leave for basic very soon and i am wondering what are the rules on smoking cigarettes i have seen very different answers and am now stressed out about having to go in possibly cold turkey
There are designated smoking areas. You will have limited time to smoke, but it is allowed. It will be difficult to get to a store to buy more cigarettes so I would recommend bringing enough for the entire course. And maybe some to share, some people become temporary smokers in the field or don’t bring enough and can’t get to the store.

On the NCD shirt, sometimes I see people wearing the NAVY / MARINE badge on the side opposite their name tag. Most of the time that area has no badge. I'm curious to know why some people have it and some don't?
When the Navy / Marine patch first came out there was a brief period were it was to be sewn on the NCD shirt. It is now to be on the NCD jacket only.
I think you are alluding to not being able to, but maybe I missed it. Could a new recruit bring a laptop with them?
You could bring a laptop, but it would be kept in civilian lockup for the vast majority of the time. For us it was a large sea container where everyone had to put all items that were not in the kit list. You got access to it for very limited time. I would recommend against it, but technically you could.
What if somebody doesn't know how to swim? can they still join Royal Canadian Navy?
Yes, you can still apply if you don't know how to swim. I recommend that you start practicing as there is a swim test during Basic Training. However you do not need to pass the test to graduate. If you are unsuccesful on the swim test you will be assigned remedial training to learn to swim.
What kind of bags do you suggest buying for BMOQ? Would any duffel bag and backpack work or are there specifications for what you need to bring?
You will be issued the green army kit bag, you do not need to purchase your own. You can bring your luggage in any type of bag. On your first day your luggage will be put into civilian lockup, and all of your military kit will be stored in your issued kit bag and barrack box for the course.
Thanks!
@@PrairieSailorthank you for making such informative videos. Are the bags issued during enrollment? or do we take our suitcases to bmq and get the bags later?

Where do you get full kit from, is it all issued? BEFORE basic training? Surely you can't just buy it all yourself before you join up?
It is issued before Basic Training. In the Reserves in Canada we do Basic Training primarily in the summer to accommodate for high school and university students. So you have some time as a member to be issued your kit before BMQ. In the Regular Force you would be issued your kit at BMQ.
If your living in modular tents what are the inspections like sir? Also when is the training usually for NCM's 3 week course.
Inspections are admittedly easier on this course (compared to my experience in Borden 2005) with no hospital corners etc and less orders of dress to maintain (they don't have any boots to spit polish), but also presents different challenges because it's harder to keep clean. They are still formed up next to bunks for inspection of uniform, quarters, and weapons. Training for NCM BMQ mod 3 residential 3 week courses run all spring/summer from May - Aug each year.
@@PrairieSailor Thank you PO. Sounds more practical and efficient use of time.
@@PrairieSailor What do you use to keep the "boots" clean when out in the field/tent? Anything special to bring. Boot brush?
@@REMMc-jx7vc Yes, usually two boot brushes. One to apply polish and one to brush off and/or clean boots.
The new hat looks alot better, Id wear that one, btw, could I get one of those as well? (CFRD Commissionaire here)
If you can explain what a cfrd commissionaire is I may be able to answer your question
I will be back at HMCS Chippawa in the fall and if you stop by for a tour we'll see what we can do about that hat.
@@sleeque6809 A Commissionaire is who does security at the Canadian Forces Recruiting Center
@@ericsaltel1234 Wearing genuine issue CADPAT is illegal if you aren’t a CAF Member. You can buy third party CADPAT which is usually legal, but just be careful.
Does the Naval Reserve also issue Ceremonial Uniform during or after BMQ?
In the current structure with the 3 modules, the ceremonial uniform is issued after graduation at your home unit. Grad parades at camp vimy were done in Naval Combat Dress.
Is everything shown here given to you?
Do you get basic t shirts. & gym shorts?
Yes, everything shown is provided including t-shirts. When I joined you even got underwear but I'm not sure if they do that anymore. O was issued gym shorts and sweats as well, but most people wear their own gym clothes now so I'm not sure if they still do that. Some people buy their own gear for higher quality or specialized items, but most of the time what they provide is good enough.
@@PrairieSailor Cool! I’m in the process of joining the Naval reserves here in Calgary!
One more question, is credit a huge factor in getting accepted?
My credit isn’t the best, but I still would like to join.
@@CGYBLACKBEAR Financial situation is taken into consideration for security purposes. It becomes an issue if an applicant has a financial situation that raises concerns regarding liability that could affect security clearance. Deciding where that bar is is above my pay grade.
Are you allowed to wear a necklace in religious regard? Such as a cross
Yes, you can wear a basic necklace with a religious symbol like a cross, but it must be worn under the uniform and not be visible.
I want to know after Basic Training, am I allowed to quit
When enrolling in the Reserves it is an "Indefinite period of service" meaning you voluntarily release at any time. The caveat is that you can be called into service in case of an emergency for 1 year.
Did you figure out what the Combat Ice Sweat Shirt is? im missing it too but the code for my fleece cadpat shirt is the same as the Combat Ice Sweat Shirt so I dont know if they are the same thing or 2 different items
I never did figure it out. It didn't seem to matter, the field clothing is not strict like the clothing in camp to have everything perfect.
In case anyone is wondering a year later, it's the same thing.
"Leather Luster Kit" for boots......is that a good brand for those spit and polish parade boots?
I have always used Kiwi brand black shoe polish. Some people also use Kiwi parade gloss. I don't often see anyone using anything else.
@@PrairieSailor Well glad you dont need them for BMQ this summer :)
Are Oakley sunglasses and electric toothbrush allowed?
Honestly it will vary depending on the staff. With the new dress regulations Oakleys should be allowed, but sometimes instructors are extra strict on BMQ. And an electric toothbrush shouldn’t be a problem, but I would bring a regular one as backup. Charging it could be a pain. Worst case scenario, anything you bring that is not allowed you can lock up in civilian lock up and have access to it on leave days, so I say go for it.
What's the current rules on electric razor?
Every school is going to be slightly different. Where I was teaching we were not strict on personal toiletries. Electric Razors are not specifically listed on the prohibited articles sections but I guess could be considered an electronic device: www.canada.ca/en/department-national-defence/services/benefits-military/education-training/basic-training/recruit-school/joining-instructions.html#prohibited

Where to go to order name tags
You can order name tags from either your unit Material Management Technician or from clothing stores depending on your unit. Or, you can buy them from this civilian source: www.soldiergearmembers.ca/name-tags
What about beards? Clean shave is compulsory?
Being clean shaven is no longer compulsory in the CAF in general. However there are some operational situations where you must be clean shaven, and you must still be clean shaven for Basic Military Qualification. You can request a religious accommodation for a beard.
Gotcha, thanks 😊
