The high readiness thing is a bit different. A friend of mine at 1 CER was on it for something like 18 months. Basically you need to keep a bug-out bag (but of course it turns into your ruck, small pack, duffel bags and a barracks box) ready pretty much always.
Kinda like, get the call, grab your shit, drive to your coy/bty/whatever lines and gtfo
Edit: You probably had a bat boy for all that stuff, so it wouldn't apply to you anyhow
Edit again: @
Lorico not sure about Ontario, but in Ab at least, it is illegal to drive around with loose stuff in the car. Not sure if it's only in commercial vehicles or not. But I was given a cargo net to Macgyver into the back seat of work truck so that all the loose equipment I carry around could be secured.
