PARENTS:

Some of you have been sent an email (please check your junk folders as well) regarding one of two things;

  1. Renewing your cadets’ expired health cards! We know and understand there has been a delay due to covid-19 restrictions, however, per the government of Ontario website it is now possible for everyone to go and renew their health cards. We need this to be done as soon as possible! If we do not receive updated information it will become increasingly difficult for your cadet to join in-person activities.
  2. Detailed Health Questionnaires are due at the beginning of each year to re-confirm medical information. We will have to send an updated version of the document to some of you who have already sent in the document; we acknowledge you’ve received and sent it already but we ask that you do it again since we’ve recently  been made aware that the one that was provided to you originally is no longer valid! The document that was included in the email has to be filled out and mailed to RCSU at

ATTN: Medical Section
RCSU (Eastern)
PO Box 100 STN Bureau-Chef Richelain, Québec, Canada
J0J 1R0

If the document is not sent in, the cadets who require this document will be prevented from joining activities requiring registration both in-person and virtual. 

Please note, not everyone has to fill the document or renew health insurance information, if you did not receive an email, you do not need to do it at this time. 

Do you know who your level officer is?

Don’t forget to join your classroom every week for mandatory training. If you’re having difficulty joining your classroom or have questions, you can get in touch with your level officer: 

We are going to keep you updated as we learn more information for our in-person return to operations. We have begun providing weekly attendance credit to all cadets who attend. This counts towards our merit list for promotions, summer training, awards and rewards. Note that only cadets who are registered members are able to attend training offered, including virtual training.

REGISTRATION FOR NEW YOUTH MEMBERS:

If you know any 12-15 year old youth interested to join 75 Squadron, our registration process opened September 1st.

How to register:

1. Parents/guardians use this link to register on any device, by choosing 75 Barrhaven Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron;

2. Submitted forms will be received by Squadron staff, who will verify the information, and contact parents/guardians for proof of Canadian Citizenship and to present their health care cards.*

3. Once registered, an email will be sent with instructions on how the new cadet will be assigned to a group, and introduced to their supervising adult – a Level Officer, who will be their primary point of contact.

*To all the parents/guardians of interested cadets – we have had an unfortunate delay to our ability to process applications as this newly updated process is often blocked at the second step – we are unable to process registrations without having a photocopy of your health card and accepted proof of identification. Given that our physical venue isn’t accessible yet, there is one option available:

1. Drop them in an envelope marked “Attn: 75 Air Cadets – P.O. Box 34038” off at Shoppers Drug Mart’s Post Office, 3781 Strandherd by Home Depot

In addition, the following resources are available:

Online Registration Tool for Cadets – this page has information for parents that can support parents through the process for successful completion of the registration.

Online Registration FAQs for Parents – This page will grow as we receive more feedback from user’s experiences.

START OF YEAR NOTICES FOR RETURNING CADETS

Annual Validations: As we begin the new year, returning cadets should have been provided a google forms link by their level officers to have all of their information verified. This will include but not limited to: Addresses, phone numbers, emails, parents contact information, as well as medical insurance information. The google form can be found here

Cadets365

As many of you may have heard, cadets will be migrating to Cadets365! As such, Teams will be our main platform for this training year. However, the region is still working on the onboarding of cadets to Cadets365. Cadets who are already set up with Teams are encouraged to use this as their primary email for the program. If you’re not set-up yet, don’t worry, until more cadets get onboarded to CDT365, we will continue to use Google Classroom, so keep an eye out for communications from your Level Officer, and we will keep you posted on your onboarding
