An Administrative Writing Course for Esl Writers}
36 MEETING A NEED (AN ADMINISTRATIVE WRITING COURSE FOR ESL WRITERS} Marian Holobow Hi story The hi story of the Admi ni strati ve Writing Course (Mobile Command) dates back to 1975 when our School of Language at Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Montreal in St Hubert, Quebec, began to receive numerous requests for training in advanced English--in particular, the sort of advanced English required for admi ni strati ve purposes. One might wonder why a course in English administrative writing would develop within a school expressly designed to teach non-Anglophones. Two important events must be recounted to explain. First, in its drive towards attaining its goal of eventual bilingualism, the Canadian Armed Forces, in the late 1960s, stepped up its recruitment of young French Canadians who, in due course, reached positions where they were required to perform administrative tasks in their second language. Servicemen of officer rank are often graduates of military colleges or of Staff College where some administrative writing is taught. Non-commissioned servicemen received some training in military writing in their Junior Leadership courses or otherwise learned to write in a sink-or-swim situation (often by copying the writing style of their predecessors). By the time these servicemen reach the rank of corporal or sergeant, they are presumed to have graduated from the school of experience and are even expected to train others to do military writing. Second, in 1972, under authority of the Chief of Defence Staff, the Department of National Defence (DND) produced a military writing manual (A-A0-121-COl/FP-OOO), familiarly called Canadian Forces Publication (CFP) 121, giving guidelines to administrative and staff procedures. -

Text on Sign at Memorial Highway of Heroes
Text on Sign at Memorial Highway of Heroes When the first four fallen soldiers were repatriated at CFB Trenton in 2002, members of the public stood in silence paying their respects to the soldiers and their families. People saw the live coverage on television and wanted to find a way to embrace the families of the fallen. After that first repatriation ceremony in 2002, individuals and families began standing on bridges overlooking Highway 401, to share in the grief of the families and to let them know that they were not alone. Each time since, when a fallen soldier has come home for the final time the numbers have grown along the bridges from Trenton to the coroner's office in Toronto. Day or night, people, families, Canadian Forces members, veterans and emergency responders attend bridges along what is now known as the Highway of Heroes, letting the families know that they are not alone and thanking the fallen for their ultimate sacrifice. Today, a dedicated group of volunteers, made up of veterans, active service members and families of the fallen set out to clean the Highway of Heroes every spring and fall so it remains a respectful place to remember and pay tribute. No. 26 Ordnance Depot of the Royal Canadian Ordnance Corps Canadian Forces Station Cobourg was a military logistics base located in Cobourg, Ontario. The facility was created due to the expansion of Canadian military capability brought about by the Korean War and Cold War. Logistics and supply facilities for the Army were being expanded across Canada. -

Proposed Funding Distribution Methodology
THE NEW DEAL NON PUPLIC PROPERTY (NPP) PROPOSED FUNDING DISTRIBUTION METHODOLOGY References : A. CDS Letter “New Deal” Study Directive dated 24 October 2008. B. The New Deal Study Directive Funding Distribution emailed 4 October 2010. C. A-PS-110-001/AG-002 Morale and Welfare Programs in Canadian Forces, Volume 1 Public Support for Morale and Welfare Programs and Non Public Property. AIM 1. The aim is to present a new Non-Public Funds (NPF) funding distribution model for implementation at the commencement of FY 11/12. BACKGROUND 2. After reviewing funding distribution options (ref B), the Environmental Commands agreed that Option D had the most universal appeal and requested further refinement. 3. The model at reference B, Option D, negatively affects four bases (Suffield, Montreal, Leitrim and RMC). The funding model presented at Annex C is the most equitable solution that could be found by the Tiger Team. Alternate proposals resulted in a large negative outflow for other bases. While a complete solution was not found for aforementioned bases, Annex C minimizes their negative net change while achieving national equitability to the greatest extent possible. Each base that suffers a negative net change is addressed individually later in the “Unique Circumstances” section. 4. Work has commenced with VCDS with respect to reference A and the Outside Canada (OUTCAN) units: CFSU(E), CFSU© and CDCS (W). PRINCIPLES OF FUNDING DISTRIBUTION 5. The “New Deal” funding distribution methodology minimizes “prescriptiveness” in order to permit flexibility by the local chain of command to address local requirements. The funding provided by DGPFSS is only one part of a Base’s overall funding.
