Why Army Cadets? We promote 3 things in army cadets:
1. To promote good citizenship and leadership skills.
2. To promote physical fitness.
3. To promote interest in the Canadian Forces.
As an Army Cadet you will follow basic military traditions including the wearing of a uniform and the learning of military drill. Each of these traditions will increase your self-awareness, personal pride and teamwork. You will be joining a corps that prides itself on being the oldest youth movement in Canada and one of the finest in the world.
