Who are the Royal Canadian Army Cadets?
The Royal Canadian Army Cadets appeal to teenagers (12-18) craving exciting outdoor activities where their personal limits as individuals and team-members will be tested. The hardcore outdoor-oriented will love the challenge!
What activities are the Army Cadets involved in?
Army cadets develop abilities in the use of map and compass, GPS technology, orienteering, first-aid, camping and survival skills, canoeing, abseiling, trekking, mountain biking, leadership, instruction, citizenship, outdoor adventure, and much more!

Three Aims of the Cadet Movement:
How much does it cost to become an Army Cadet?
NOTHING. There is NO COST associated with being an Army Cadet (no joining fee, no uniform fee, and no dues). The only thing the corps asks for is that cadets help in fundraising (such as Tag Days).
Why should I become an Army Cadet?
Cadets have been helping develop Canadian youth into leaders since before Confederation. Astronauts, Premiers, Olympians, doctors, engineers, professional actors, major league athletes, and many more have spoken in great details how cadets made a great difference in their life. Cadet Alumni include astronauts Marc Garneau and Chris Hadfield, Major Maryse Carmichael (first female Snowbirds pilot), Senator Terry M. Mercer, (Certified Funding Raising Executive), George Canyon (Country Music Artist) and Ms Afshin-Jam Nazanin (International human rights activist, Miss World Canada 2003 and Miss World 1st runner up). Because your future is waiting for you!
