    Our North - SSE Policy Update Megathread

    That's a good idea. And even though it makes perfect sense, I actually think the concept itself would be lost on our current lot There is absolutely something to be said for South Korean military kit & pricing, and speed if delivery. Partnering with them makes sense...

    Trudeau Popularity - or not. Nanos research

    That small fee is already paid in the form of ludicrous taxes, I'd say...ludicrously high taxes that apparently don't go towards paying for a single bloody thing other than interest of a rapidly growing debt or the pay increase for those putting us into that debt! JT or Freeland should...

    Trudeau Popularity - or not. Nanos research

    The problem is...this government won't address this, because it would require them to admit that it is their policies that have caused so much of this in the first place. I too wish they would take some serious measures to address this. But they won't - a party that is causing the problem...

    Trudeau Popularity - or not. Nanos research

    Likewise, if you tend to be late on paying your rent (even if just by a day or two) does that impact you negatively in other areas of your life? If your landlord is an individual & you've discussed it beforehand, I'm sure it's fine. Maybe you get slapped with a late fee of some kind. But if...

    https://betterdwelling.com/canada-sees-domestic-foreign-investors-pull-out-at-a-record-pace/ I was going to post in the Canada is irrelevant thread, but couldn't find it & I'm in a rush. But I figure it's probably budget related also, so here... Like I said the other day folks...

    Federal Budget 2024 megathread

    Thanks for posting that Dimsum. It made for an informative read, even if I dozed off twucs while reading it... (its all government documents, not just this one) I think we will have to see what the final draft looks like, to be fair I'm assuming any pharmacare bill will help cover those who...

    High Ranking Police Folk Allegedly Behaving Badly

    This pisses me off to no end, and it doesn't do the profession any good either. There isn't a single positive thing that results from crap like that, but the consequences for members across the board can be severe and take YEARS to rectify... Best case scenario it creates the image with the...

    Canadian modular assault rifle project, a C7 replacement?

    Holy crap man...no, flares are not an option. The idea isn't just to be able to see so you can fight at night, the idea is that you can see the enemy & they can't see you. (Essentially)

    Munchkin of Mayhem 😅 love it I always want to call her Squeaker of the House for some reason, and have to correct myself... I actually hope she jumps ship & replaces Klaus at the WEF as his successor (as the rumour mill goes...) because it will throw off their diabolical plans for YEARS

    Federal Budget 2024 megathread

    With the introduction of the carbon tax, the government increased its revenues by several factors. (I am assuming this, but have nowhere near the understanding of how national finances practically work like you & some other folks here have) How has the government racked up so much debt, and...

    Federal Budget 2024 megathread

    Agreed. It must be a joke, he jus forgot to include an emoji saying as much... Having Trudeau step down only to be replaced by Freeland wouldn't do them any good, nor would the government start to produce better results. Freeland is a Finance Minister who doesn't understand finance, and...

    Federal Budget 2024 megathread

    I have absolutely no idea what you guys are talking about, and I feel like I should so I can do some reading and catch up. In the meantime tho, BOOOOOOOO to Freeland's budget release tomorrow! (Even though I haven't seen it...)

    Trudeau Popularity - or not. Nanos research

    I read the article and finished it thinking "Nope..." To say this government has a 'fiscal responsibility' problem is an understated epic statement. And what I mean by that is most Canadians have a lack of faith in this government when it comes to fiscal responsibility... and most Canadians...

    Canada doesn’t matter to the rest of the world - and it’s our own fault

    Ugh, people can say what they will but I miss the Harper days...don't forget the constantly upgraded vehicles we had in theatre. (RG-31, those big transformer looking trucks, the trio of EID detecting vehicles, M777, the big Buffalo MRAP's, etc etc) I'd take that level of suck again, too

    Personalities aside.... a good thing for the CAF?

    Hopefully you get in soon & get a trade that you want! If you stick with it, your time in the military will give you as much as you give it - be competent & down to Earth, and you'll find plenty of unique opportunities. In terms of CAF readiness over the next 5 years, I think it will really...

    Our North - SSE Policy Update Megathread

    We were in better shape to contribute in a meaningful way a decade ago, frig almost 2 decades ago, than we are now... (holy crap time flies! I've hit that point in my life where I can now tell war stories from decades ago...wtf happened?) Closest we've been to war since the Cold War isn't...
