⚠️Phishing e-mails⚠️
We are currently seeing an increase in phishing emails targeting members of our organisation. These emails impersonate Officers or Cadets and typically follow this pattern:
-
Initial email: A request to meet.
-
Follow-up email: Claims they cannot meet and asks for personal information or gift cards.
-
Source: Suspicious Gmail accounts, not official addresses. (Sometimes not visible until you click reply)
What you should do:
-
Do not respond or click any links.
-
Report the email in Outlook by selecting Report as Phishing.
-
Notify your chain of command immediately.

✈️Effective speaking 2025/2016
We are looking for cadets who would like to participate in the Effective Speaking competition.
The selection of topics to choose from has been released for 2026. Are you ready for the challenge?
It takes diligence, lots of preparation, rehearsals and a good deal of courage to deliver your final speech in front of an audience.
It is a skill for life, that is acknowledged by schools and universities. If you are planning to apply for any specific educational program, you could add this as a bonus on your resume.
Please check the themes below, and if interested, we will have our first meeting on November 12th, at the museum. All subsequent meetings will be help at the museum on training nights.
Date for Effective Speaking competition: February 11th, 2026.
Effective Speaking times: Wednesdays during the 3rd period.
Cadets can register with Capt. Lemieux or Mrs Belhache – deadline for registration to participate in the competition(s) is December 17th.
