The Canadian Armed Forces offers competitive salaries and world-class benefit packages – including health, dental, vision, four to six weeks paid vacation annually, great pension plans and continuous training – that start from the moment you put on the uniform.

And we’re striving to do better.

Canada’s military is working hard to provide talented and capable members with the best possible opportunity to stay in uniform.

In coming months and years, military members can expect modern initiatives focused on wellbeing, workplace culture, and work-life balance. Members can also expect to see enhanced programs and policies, to allow for more career flexibility and increase workplace satisfaction.

If you’re thinking of joining Canada’s military, it’s a great time to join. Existing members – stay tuned for exciting changes and opportunities ahead.
