The CFRC (Canadian Forces Recruiting Centre) in Edmonton is located, according to the website, at:

Canada Place, 9700 Jasper Ave., Suite 110
Edmonton AB T5J 4C3
Tel. (780) 495-2274
email: edmonton@jointheforce.com


Edmonton is the location of the LFWAHQ. It is also where the 1st Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group is located (reg force), as well as the 1 Area Support Group.

The Loyal Edmonton Regiment ("LER" also the 4th Battalion Princess Patricia‘s Canadian Light Infantry) is part of the 41 Canadian Brigade Group, one of three reserve formations in the LFWA. It is the ONLY reserve infantry regiment in Edmonton, in this brigade group, according to the list on the website.

The 41 CBG HQ is located in Calgary.

If you don‘t have them already, the links for the LER‘s official and unofficial sites:

Could I not just go to the armory? and are there any complications if I have previously applied in Calgary. Will I have to send them my transcripts, 2 refernce letters and SIN number again?

thanks in advance

If you goto CFRC Edmonton to join the reserves, they‘ll just send you to Jefferson Armoury...
