Don't trust it...Everyone of them jumps through hoops to apply. We cheer for a MNRF fully staffed and at strength ......and then because of cuts to the budget no new people can be hired and current people will be laid off.
Wish I was in a position to apply.
Wish I were fifty years younger....
You and me both,brother. If I knew,then,what I know,now.........The only trouble,now,though,is visible minorities,only,in PC Ontario,need apply.Quote:

Anyone interested in this should also keep in mind that the job will drastically cut into your fishing and hunting time, because that's when they're busiest. I've met some CO's though. It can be a very fun job. It can also be dangerous at times, but very rewarding.
Too big of a paycut:)
You come to a point in life when you realize $$ isn't everything.
That following your dreams far surpasses chasing the greenback.
That doing what makes you happy, surpasses all else.
That Socrates said: "“Thou shouldst eat to live; not live to eat.” for good reasons.
Me?
Id take the pay cut, a hefty one at that in a heartbeat
I realized money isn't everything a long time ago, but it sure makes pursuing your interests much easier.
Things like travel, high quality equipment to name a few are easier.
I work to live, it will never be the other way for me:)
ya these types of jobs would be a dream for most outdoorsmen. but there isn't great job security and you get shipped to wherever there is work at the current time. not to mention being particularly busy at work during hunting season...
if I was young qualified and flexible I would jump all over an opportunity like this, but as with most people its not an option.
Some "interesting" trends being studied in the US.

When you think about it. $1,300 /wk ($67,600 annualized) is actually pretty good.
The mean duo is 75,000.
Lets not make this political. Point being, people "perceptions" are skewed and as a result, see what it's doing to youth in the US.
My second oldest son is applying and keeping his fingers crossed. You never know.
Is that $1300 gross or net pay
That would be gross
Gross before perks....such as out of town living and travelling costs...:o
I would if it didn't cut into my hunting season lol
