Royal Canadian Army Cadets
The Royal Canadian Army Cadets is a national organization for youth aged 12 to 18. There are more than 25,000 cadets which are split up into over 450 corps across Canada. Each member meets up once a week during the school year on their designated training night to learn citizenship, leadership, drill, effective speaking, outdoor survival, range and more. In addition to training nights, corps may have other optional nights of the week dedicated to sports, drill, range, biathlon or other additional training. During select weekends during the year, many corps engage in outdoor bush exercises, competitions or a variety of other trips.

During the summer, cadets have the opportunity to go to a variety of summer camps. These courses range from 2 to 7 week courses and include basic training, introductory and advanced courses to leadership and instruction, drill and ceremonial, outdoor and sports training, and the Canadian Forces basic parachutist course.

Army Cadet League of Canada
The Army Cadet League of Canada is the civilian non-profit authority governing the Royal Canadian Army Cadets. This is done as a partnership with the Canadian Forces, which also funds the Royal Canadian Air, Army and Sea Cadets, as well as the Junior Canadian Rangers (all related youth programs). The Army Cadet League finances and supports each corps through 11 provincial and territorial branches, and then to the support committees of the individual corps.

ACLC - Ontario Branch
There are 11 branches in the ACLC, one for each province, and one for the territories. The Ontario branch is the largest, in charge of 111 individual cadet corps. Based out of Toronto, the Ontario branch oversees the interests of the ACLC, and works with corps and local communities to help support the Army Cadets. For the corps, the Ontario branch provides funds, training for adult volunteers and staff, insurance and financial services, awards and medals for cadets, volunteer screening and registration, and conflict resolution.
