FORMULAIRE D’AVIS EN CAS D’URGENCE
Réf : Courriel Lcol JSWL MacKay, AJAG Montréal 4 mai 2007 12h17
1.
Avec l'arrivée de la saison des affectations, et le déploiement imminent de la FO
01-09, il serait bon et important de faire un rappel concernant le formulaire en titre, plus
spécifiquement sur l'importance de porter la partie 4 du formulaire à l'attention des
membres.
2.
La partie 4 est très importante car il s'agit du consentement du membre à ce que
les FC divulguent, aux personnes identifiées, des renseignements personnels. Sans ce
consentement, en cas d'accident ou de blessure par exemple, les FC pourraient aviser les
personnes identifiées que le membre a été blessé, mais les autorités médicales ne
pourraient pas divulguer de l'information médicale sur l'état du membre, l'étendue de ses
blessures, le pronostique, etc. Sous le régime de la Loi sur la protection des
renseignements personnels, l'information médicale constitue de renseignements
personnels et ne peut être divulguée si nous n'avons pas le consentement du membre.
Vous pouvez donc facilement imaginer les situations difficiles que cela pourrait créer.
3.
Un rappel devrait donc être envoyé à toutes les unités afin que les membres soient
informés de l'importance de ce consentement. Il faut toutefois noter qu'un membre ne
peut, en aucun cas, être forcé à donner ce consentement.
Merci de votre co-opération.

NEW CFB VALCARTIER SALUTING AREA
1.
We would like to remind all personal, that the new Valcartier Garrison cenotaph is
considered as a saluting area. Therefore, when walking on the sidewalk in front, or the
track behind the cenotaph, everyone must salute. When in uniform, it is customary to
start saluting right before passing the cenotaph (salute to the left or to the right) and to
lower one’s arm after passing it. When wearing civilian clothing (sports clothing), you
may continue running or walking, making an “eyes right” or “eyes left” movement while
holding your arms at the attention position.
2.
“Saluting area signs” will be post in the near future, but everyone shall begin
saluting the cenotaph (paying respect) immediately.
