CANADA Military Service Act, 1917 Explanatory Announcement by the Minister of Justice HE MILITARY SERVICE ACT has received the assent of the IGovernor-General and is now part of the law of the land. It will be enforced accordingly, and the patriotism and good sense of the people can be relied upon to support it. Resistance to its enforcement; however, by word or act must and will be repressed, as resistance to any other law in force must be. Reinforcements under the Military Service Act immediately required It is the intention of the Government immediately to exercise the power which the Act centers and, to call out men for military service in order to provide reinforcements for the Canadian forces. This is neces- sary since the military authorities report that the reserves available or in sight for reie9forcement will shortly be exhausted unless this step be taken. • First call7imited to men between 20 and 34 who`were unmarried or widowers without children on July 6, 1917 The present call will be limited to men not in the schedule of excep- 'dons'who were unmarried brwidowers without children on6th Julys]. 917; are at least twenty years of age, and were born on or since January 1st, 1883. Of this Class all those will be entitled to conditional exemption whose services in their, present occupations, agricultural, industrial or other, are essential in the nationalinterest, and whose business or domes- tic reponsibilities are such, that serious hardship would ensue if their services be required. Conscientious scruples based upon a prohibition of combatant service by the articles of faith of the religious denomination to which men belong will also be respected. The men first required to owith will consequently be those who can be galled upon the least disturbance of the economic and social life of the country. Civil Tribunals to deal with exemptions Questions of exemption will be determined, not by the military authorities or by the Government, but by civil tribunals composed of representative mea who are familiar with local conditions irk the com- munities in which they serve, who will generally have personal knowledge of the economic and family reasons which those whose cases come before them have had for not volunteering their services and who will lee able sympathetically to estimate the weight and importance of such reasons. Provincial Appellate Tribunals constituted from the existing judiciary of the respective provinces will be provided to correct mistakes- made by Local Tribunals, and a Central Appeal Tribunal for the whole of Canada; selected from among the present Judges of the Supreme Court of Canada; will be constituted in order that identical principles may be applied throughout the country. In this way every pian may rest assured of the fair and full consideration of his circumstances and the national require- ments both civil and military. Proclamation will announce the day A proclamation will issue calling out the bachelors and widowers referred to and fixing a day on or before which every man must report for service to the military authorities unless he has before that day made an application for exemption. How to apply for exemption Applications for exemption may be made byy written notice on forms which will be available at every.post office, and will be transmitted free of postage. They will not, however, be required to be made in this way; but may be presented by the applicants in person to the exemption tri- bunals. The casesof those who have given written notice in advance Will take precedence, and appearance in person will therefore be likely to involve considerably more inconvenience: and delay to the tnen con- cerned, so that it is recommended that •advantage be generally taken of the facilities for written application. Ottawa, September 11,1917. Exemption Tribunals in all parts of Canada The local exemption -tribunals will be constituted with the least delay possible, consistent with the 'selection of representative individuals to compose them, and the instruction of the members in their duties. There will be more than one thousand of such tribunals throughout Canada, each consisting of two members, one of whom will be nominated by a Joint Committee of Parliament, and the other by one of the Judges of the existing Courts. Every effort will be made by the wide distribution of tribunals, and by provision where necessary for their sitting in more than one place, to minimise the inconvenience to which men will be put in obtaining the disposition of their cases. A Registrar will be appointed in each Province, who will be named hi the proclamation and to whom enquiries may be addressed. Each Provincial Registrar will transmit to the appropriate tribunal the appli- cations for 'exemption which have been submitted in advance of the sit- tings, and men who have sent these in will not be required to attend the tribunals until notified to do so. Other applicants should attend per- sonally on the tribunal without notice. How to report for service Men who do not desire to claim exemption will report to the military authorities for service either by mail or in person at any time after the issue of the proclamation. Forms of report by mail will be found in all post offices, and, like applications for exemption, will be transmitted free of postage. Early report advantageous No man who reports for service will, although he may be medically examined and passed as fit, be required to go into camp or join a battalion until after a day fixed by the proclamation sufficiently late to permit of the disposition by the local tribunals of most, if not all, of the applica- tions for exemption which may come before them. Thus no advantage will be gained by delaying or disadvantage incurred by prompt report for service on the part of those who do not intend to apply for exemption. Facilities for immediate medical examination Immediately upon the issue of the proclamation, medical boards will sit at every mobilization centre for the examination of men who report for service or who, subject to their right within the time limited to apply for exemption, desire to have their physical fitness determined in order to allay any doubt as to their physical condition, or to know definitely and in advance whether there is a possibility of their services being required: Certificates of physical unfitness issued by these Medical Boards will be accepted without any further investigation by exemption tribunals when they sit, Men found physically fit who have not reported for service may nevertheless apply for exemption on any of the prescribed grounds; including even their physical condition if dissatisfied with the Medical Board's conclusion. Notice to join the colors As reinforcements are required, notice to report to the nearest mobil- ization centre will be given from time to time to the men found liable and passed as fit for service. .Disobedience of such notice will render the offender liable to punishment, but punishment for failure to report for military service, or to report subsequently for duty when called- upon; will be imposed ordinarily by the civil magistrates; offenders, however; will remain liable for the performance of their military duties notwith standing any civil punishment which may be imposed and will be liable to military punishment in cases in which civil proceedings are not taken. Watch for the Proclamation Notice of the day appointed for the making of a claim for exemption or for report formilitary service will be published es widely as possible; but, as no personal notice can be given until the individual'; called out have so regorte d themselves or claimed exemption, men possibly con- cerned are warned t� informthemselves with regard to the day fixed; since neglect may involve the loss by them of important privileges and rights.
