Following extensive consultation with territories, and in-depth discussion with the International Management Council, the General has decided that, with effect from 1 February 2009, certain reserved appointments in some territories will be known as Senior Reserved Appointments. Such appointments will automatically carry the rank of lieutenant-colonel, provided that the officer concerned has served an aggregate of at least twenty years as an officer since being commissioned. Orders and regulations have been modified to reflect the introduction of this new category of appointment.
Orders and Regulations stipulate that where senior rank (lieutenant-colonel, colonel or commissioner) is conferred upon a married officer, each spouse holds the rank in his or her own right (where both spouses are active officers).
Designated Senior Reserved Appointments in the Canada and Bermuda Territory include:
Secretary for Personnel
Secretary for Program Services
Secretary for Business Administration
Divisional Commander – Newfoundland & Labrador East Division
Divisional Commander – Ontario Great Lakes Division
Divisional Commander – Ontario Central – East Division
To this effect, the following officers of the Canada and Bermuda Territory are promoted to the rank of Lieut.-Colonel effective February 1, 2009:
Major Jean Moulton
Major Neil Watt
Major Lynda Watt
Major Ray Rowe
Major Audrey Rowe
Major Alf Richardson

Sowing Hope
With the help of The Salvation Army, conservation agriculture brings lasting change in Malawi.
By Manjita Biswas Faith & FriendsIn Malawi where a significant portion of the population experiences economic hardship, nearly 70 percent of the population live on less than $2.15 a day, and most families depend on small-scale farming plots smaller than a hectare. Droughts, soil degradation, crop disease and lack of access to improved farming practices have long left many vulnerable to hunger and poverty.
In response, The Salvation Army, in partnership with Canadian Foodgrains Bank (CFGB), is implementing a three-year sustainable agriculture and food security (SAFS) project in Malawi’s Mangochi District.
