Those cadets are probably more afraid of the male shower room and the mess hall food than jumping out of that tower. I don't know about this particular CTC, but if I had the choice between taking another shower in Vernon CTC barracks and jumping out of this tower without a harness, I would choose option B any day
you did not want to reside in B34 at vernon this year of the 7 showers there, 2 were functional. Someone had waffle-stomped in another I was only told this, I was next door in B33, where all 8 showers were functional
I had two people from my unit, the RSM and the CSM who were in the serial that Rick Mercer shot this episode in. They both went on to get into the course.
I'm in Cadets. Army Cadets. We did a winter expedition, and we didn't sleep outside the first night, because we showed up at the sight around 10:30pm and we still needed to be taught and set up our ten man tents. We also needed sleeping bags and other bags, a lot of stuff. The next night, though, we did. It dropped to -46 degrees Celsius. It sucked.
This training was the most formative experience of my life. I was able to safely jump 6 times. Every time I think I have a hard task in front of me, I think back to this training and I know I can get the job done.
@@mrblue2052 had to choose between basic para and BMOQ and I'm glad I chose RMC cause now the virus complicated everything 😂 still wish I had gotten to do it but pre para was awesome!
Well they said "Hooah" - from what I remember that just means Heard Understood Acknowledged. I understand it originated within the marines but its used alot in the C.A.F.
I may be taking it a little too serious and shouldn't sh*t on their motivation, but 1) they're army cadets, not CF (Army Cadets is a great program and the kids should be commended, but the distinction should still be made) and 2) In my so far limited experience in the Canadian Army (about a year), we get sh*t on for saying "hooah" or "oorah", being less than politely reminded (as you can imagine during training) that we are not marines. We just say "yes [insert rank]" or "no [insert rank]" as loudly and aggressively as we can.
Everyone in the CF uses it, a lot of cadets use it, air, army, sea it doesn’t matter, and CF officers in the colleges use it, it probably hasn’t been exclusive to the US marines in years
Canada should also start MAVNI program like USA have where they recruit non citizen also Canada should start hiring Refugees protect person to join canadian armed forces
Cool, but in air cadets we get to go gliding and actually do meaningful stuff. Ever seen a glider on a winch? (I think I have a video on my account of winch gliding) it’s a hell of a lot more fun than jumping 9 feet onto a slow zip line.
Emiliano Ghew exactly! Plus if Adam Polson wants to go there, ok. The basic para course is with out a doubt the hardest course in the cadet program get into, yes getting you're pilots licence is a pretty big deal and it is very competitive, however at least when it comes to getting your power or glider wings, there are multiple flying centres across Canada (Comox, Alberta, Gimli etc...) however there is only ONE centre that does the BPC, there are hundreds of applicants across Canada and only around fifty make it onto the course each year, not to mention if by chance you make it on to the course it is pretty easy to get RTU'd If you need me to continue, please talk to the multiple (former) air cadets who have gotten their pilots wings but joined army cadets to complete the course (I know this because my RSM was the CSM at para this summer and he said there was someone who was an air cadet) 😸Have a nice day!
This is the pre-para course for Ontario, not the actual jump course. Only a certain amount of cadets get selected from each province (most of which have their own "pre-para"). As mentioned above, there are approximately 50 spots each year for the entire country. The jump course is not intended to be fun. I guarantee you it is much harder than any course offered in the cadet program because it is a legitimate military course, and the PIs will treat you accordingly. As for you saying it is not meaningful, it is the only course that cadets can do that is rewarded with a real military qualification upon completion, which carries over to the CAF upon joining. At the end of the day, you're not a badass for being a cadet, especially one who flew in a glider. Nobody cares. This course is useful if you actually plan on joining the CAF and want to join a jump company because its proof that you're not a complete flake. Let me know when you become a pilot in the CAF and then maybe you can talk about what is meaningful or not.
The magic of cadets is that we literally could not care less. We get to shout a battle cry, we get to do so many cool things that the rest of the population would daydream about as kids, so it's definitely worth some lads with boring lives mocking our fun. As for the military members, we know what kind of cadet you dislike. We dislike them as well. No one likes a "My dad is a CWO/ I already know all of this so I'm better" guy.

Piano Roots Music Vernon sucked
Piano Roots Music I took para this year, And the mess hall was amazing and we stayed in like military 2 person dorm rooms, off of Trenton CTC
Lol, you should have been at Vernon this year; we had a game in the male barracks called "musical showers"
Aquafina Waterbottle why am I a little bit afraid to ask?
I was at Albert head CTC
FSIC

LOVE IT WHEN RICK HAS FUN WITH PEOPLE OF GREAT STANDING
Definitely Agree 👍 Wish Rick was,Still doing his Show.
My little bro is in this video training! So proud of him
I'm an Army Cadet and for some reason watching this made me happy to see
What Corps?
I’m an air cadet and gotta say I’m jealous that you guys get the parachute training and we don’t anymore
I had two people from my unit, the RSM and the CSM who were in the serial that Rick Mercer shot this episode in. They both went on to get into the course.
Rick's always willing to try anything. Makes all of it fun. 😄
Lol
“Is there a little heater in that room up there?”
“No.”
“Oh for God’s sakes. I’m going to start a Go Fund Me.”
Brilliant, wish I'd discovered this guy sooner.
Somehow happy to see the younger generation still knows how to conduct a proper handshake. lol
If you don't break their fingers, than it is not a proper shake
Rick is a good sport...

Well air cadets also do that.
Anyone ever say “suck it up your a Canadian” by any chance?
I can't wait until I'm old enough to do this
are you yet

Yes finally! I'm in army cadets so this is really cool!
Jacob Freeborn Ayyyy same here bud
Jacob Freeborn just saying you gotta be a really good cadet to get accepted
TheGeneralJacob lol I don't want para, I just want to staff Blackdown again
True I'm probably going to cfb meaford this summer for basic training, I'm infantry
I'm still waiting for my acceptance for basic training, wanna be a vehicle tech
I've done that before, it's so fun, seems scary at first but once you do it once you want to do it more
i loved doing this
That’s my goal I’ve got a few more ranks to climb and a few years to age
Rick Mercer for Governor General.. I love this guy
3:16, The guy with Patterson is RSM of our core. Pretty good job. Congrats
*corps
Rick:” do you want to jump out of a plane” me:” gg bye lol”
They made a huge drill mistake lol when someone is blocking your way your supposed to mark time and wait for them to get out the way lol.
ikr but then again the first scene while they were marching was probably scripted
They forgot the PI yelling tabernacle at everyone and everything
Look cool!!!
I live on base this is cool
We met Warrant Thibault there for an FTX I'm pretty sure, quite a nice guy!
Poor Rick ; gets conned into all this stuff !!! I think he should make the jump with those kids !!! LOL
Kd Lang hallelujah
But he did...
What year did this air?
Noooooo way that was my Captain in Cadets, I went to that same coarse around the same time.
hereminds me of kenny hotz if they had a tv show together thatd be great
I want to do para and airborne training, but I’m in air cadets, we don’t have the program😭
When ghouls said, nope, did he really meant, yup?
I'm going summer 2022
Next year il get in!
Good luck! If you're in Ontario, the pre-para is extremely competitive
Lol. And if you're in BC, prepare to kiss your arms n legs goodbye!
Next year maybe😂, -Mack
How it go?
@@mrblue2052 had to choose between basic para and BMOQ and I'm glad I chose RMC cause now the virus complicated everything 😂 still wish I had gotten to do it but pre para was awesome!
SGT BRIDGE!!!
I still wish to get into the Para's
Hen. Jamz in R22R yes

Hang on. I KNOW MAJOR ALLAIN. THATS MY OLD CO
2:25
Craig Smith lol
My friend is there
He is general sergeant
I'm private orchard
Anyway he says the rick Mercer team team took way too long
I know 2 people that were there
General Sergeant? that isn't a rank.
It seems like a miss translation from french.
BOOOO ARMY YOU TOOK THE AIR CADET TARINING COURSES. THIS WAS OUR COURSE
Cope, this is something the army does, not the air force, so it didn't even make sense to begin with.
Did the Army cadets really just use the U.S Marine cheer....
Zachery Syganiec
Hhhhhhh

I didn't realize the US military has the copyright on the phrase.
Canada should also start MAVNI program like USA have where they recruit non citizen also

"Meaningful stuff"
Okay chair force. You do the same stuff as us, except your have more boring stuff in between the cool things.
Владимир
Don't blasphemy
The fact that they said “Ooh Rah” in the end ruins everything and strengthens the mockery of cadets 🤦🏽♂️🤣
