    Trudeau Popularity - or not. Nanos research

    for a person to arrive at that conclusion they must be capable of independent thought: a skill we neglected to pass on to those younger than ourselves

    Constraining Canadian Federal Budget during Post COVID Downturn

    and find a way to get school guidance departments on side. A flyby with the Snowbirds doesn't cut it, it only serves to illustrate how old and decrepit the CAF has become. Buy new a/c for the demo team and stop pandering to the woke

    Hamas invaded Israel 2023

    or finally printing some truth about the utter depravity behind Hamas. Maybe some of those flag waving useful fools with notice seeing as it is on the BBC

    CMMA - replacing the CP140 Aurora

    yet if your reaction isn't exactly the same in both cases you are dead. Students who start their training with simulators are far easier to convince that they are working with reality in the sim. They don't enter with a pre-conceived bias. Finances are always a problem but the discussion is...

    CMMA - replacing the CP140 Aurora

    Going back several decades, we were being given a VIP tour at CAE in Montreal and a combat simulator due for delivery was being flown by a major from the Luftwaffe. The simulator was stationary, motion was implied via an air cushion with hundreds of pockets that applied pressure as appropriate...

    CAN Enhanced (Permanent?) Fwd Presence in Latvia

    if that happens you can look for replacing each posted detachment with new recruits as soon as their current hitch is up unless that is an accompanied posting which it isn't. No one's family can tolerate having one parent away for a year at a time.

    Constraining Canadian Federal Budget during Post COVID Downturn

    one reason might be that we have closed all the small hospitals and treatment centres and didn't increase the staffing at the remaining facilities by the numbers that were made redundant. Bigger isn't always better and all the fancy equipment is useless if is not available to you due to...

    Lets get real, Canada and talk defence.

    amen to that. Well worth the 5 minutes to read and the following hour to mull over what he said

    Justin Trudeau hints at boosting Canada’s military spending

    so how long before we finally give up on the 295 and go shopping again or do we continue to make do with decades old H models? I have noted before that the C390 meets all the requirements and is now a viable a/c so unlike Bombardier and the ASW proposal it would be worthy of consideration...

    CMMA - replacing the CP140 Aurora

    If the GOC can convince Canadians that they need to spend millions of dollars on a part-time wind generated electrical system and a duplicate natural gas system to fill in when needed then I am certain they could convince those same Canadians that they need to pay to ensure that our country...

    CMMA - replacing the CP140 Aurora

    do you think TC is going to have any more luck recruiting pilots than the CAF or the airlines? With the cost of fuel being so high the only people who can afford to get a license are foreign students on subsidies and folks who don't need a job in the first place. Airlines are employing people...

    Constraining Canadian Federal Budget during Post COVID Downturn

    consider priorities. A senior who put 40 years in at low paying jobs with no pension benefits receives far less than someone who walked across the border in Quebec pleading refugee status. He gets a hotel room, meal allowance and medical benefits the senior gets a rat hole near the tracks off...

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    since so many use private a/c, airline access is really not necessary, in fact, it might even be a draw back since all the riff raff can join in as well. Cheapens the joint
