    Replacing the Subs

    That leapt out at me as well. The SK are experienced defense system sellers and exporters. They are not heavily protectionists about their industry and will adapt their programs and design to meet the customers needs. The Japanese have no experience in this part of the industry. The Germans are...

    US Presidential Election 2024 - Trump vs Harris - Vote Hard with a Vengence

    I would expect a warning popping up for a month or so saying this is coming, speak to your representative. That would create political pressure.

    Army Reserve Restructuring

    Plus this does not require any changes in regulation, etc. Just someone needs to set it up and enforce it across the Brigade, along with some funding. If they start getting every Brigade to do similar, then you might be able to find ways to intergrade 2 brigade FTX's or use components to support...

    "Battleground Toronto: Fears of more clashes between Sikhs and Hindus in Brampton, Ont., as Canada-India rift spills over into suburbs"

    Lovely.... I always get a chuckle out of Indian Nationalists blaming all their ills on the British. It was not surprising the Brits used a heavy hand to keep them from killing each other.

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    It's going to vary, some border states are going to be very supportive and assist, others will tell the Feds to pound sand. Some are going to say yes but show us the money to cover our costs per prisoner.

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    Trudeau was going to balance the budget and make government more open. Politicians say lot's of things that won't happen or happen in way other than promised. Once deportations are up, a lot of people will leave on their own accord. Offer flights home, but take their bio signs and warning not...

    Whither the Royal Canadian Legion? Or RCL Withers?

    God help us if it was run by the military, the approved press releases and ops plans would come out Nov 18th.

    US Presidential Election 2024 - Trump vs Harris - Vote Hard with a Vengence

    You be surprised how many failed to add that. If you want to see snobbery at play, just be the only person in the room without a degree discussing a major project. You get looked down upon quite a bit. The ones that were really anal generally had the fluffy degrees, I found the Engineers...

    US Presidential Election 2024 - Trump vs Harris - Vote Hard with a Vengence

    I saw that in the Feds, people designing the job requirements would set a university degree as a requirement, because they could not fathom any other way to assess people. Most of the jobs that say university degree, does not require that level of education, nor do they pay enough to make it...

    Whither the Royal Canadian Legion? Or RCL Withers?

    One of our local legions sold their property on Lonsdale (main street) to a developer who built a high raise with a new legion on the ground floor, parking and a number of suite reserved for veterans. The one in West Van seems to be a hangout for the local police, fire fighter and anyone else...
