Is the link to the Career Im most likely going into, Training includes:
- Basic Officer Training (No Timelines given, Ive heard about 13 weeks) [Quebec]
- Second language training (2-7months, aka 7months for me) [Quebec?]
- MARS Basic Training (~12 months) [Naval Officer Training Centre in Esquimalt, BC]
- Then obtain ship placement and some more courses in Nova Scotia

Looks like roughly ~ 4-5 years spent as being a Junior Officer and training. In other words i won't be back to NS for a looooong time. The job sounds and looks really interesting and cool.

What do you guys think?
