I think they are going to have a hard time finding cadets that meets this requirement.

I may be wrong but I can't think of any Marine Cadet program in Canada, outside the Coast Guard College and CBU or maybe the Marine Institute and MUN, that is associated with or is even considerd a Degree granting institution for their Marine Engineering program

Anyone enrolled in a Bachelor's Engineering Degree would be bloody stupid to give it up for a cadet programme. The Canadian CoC will be worthless in a few years.
