Do you know someone who wants to join cadets?

We are proud to introduce a new Online Registration Tool to make the registration process easier to join cadets!
Step 1
Parents/guardians and prospective cadets can now visit our website at www.canada.ca/join-cadets to receive information to help them start the registration process.
The tool will gather their contact information as well as the unit they are interested in joining and forward it to the corps/squadrons’ generic mailbox. Corps and squadrons will then be able to contact the parent/guardian to answer any questions and arrange for the completion of the registration process.
Step 2 
Join us on our second batch recruitment night on Thursday October 31, 2024 at the Mimico Adult Learning Centre, 255 Royal York Rd, Etobicoke, ON M8V 2V8 at 7:00 PM. Bring items as per the enrollment checklist below:
We will have plenty more recruitment nights in the future.  Stay tuned for more information!!!

Cadet Code of Conduct

Uniforms

Cadets will receive uniforms shortly after being sworn in, usually about 6 weeks after joining, if their attendance and behaviour are acceptable.

Prior to that, all new recruits are expected to be dressed to squadron standards:

  • Clean and ironed white dress shirt
  • Black tie
  • Black or dark blue dress pants
  • Flat black dress shoes

Uniforms remain the property of the Department of National Defence, and must be returned to 142 Squadron in good condition when the cadet leaves the unit.

Hair and facial standards are expected even in a recruit uniform. See the Dress Instructions page for more details on how to ensure your appearance is up to standard.
