    Hamas invaded Israel 2023

    With good reason if the clips of tunnel entrances in UNWRA buildings are to be believed (and they are). Not to mention the reports of UN staff members being a part of HAMAS. Would make as much sense as having Belarus superintend a cease fire between Russia and Ukraine.

    The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

    Wasn't that always the intent. The first squadron will go to a training base.

    Trudeau Popularity - or not (various polling, etc.)

    they don't want to give up their entitlements. That is how people end up bankrupt: they don't know when to stop spending

    Arctic/Offshore Patrol Ship AOPS

    For info, here is another little known "hero" of the War of 1812 who was directly responsible for the British regaining control of the upper Great Lakes. Makes for quite a tale. Lieutenant Miller Worsley

    Justin Trudeau hints at boosting Canada’s military spending

    wouldn't work. Either the cheque would bounce or the recipient would find it post-dated until after the next election

    Trudeau Popularity - or not (various polling, etc.)

    and when you are watching them graduate or as they walk down the proverbial aisle you will have dropped the word sacrifice from that statement. It will have become a value-added effort.

    Trudeau Popularity - or not (various polling, etc.)

    There was a 60's 70's group called The Association who had a tune that identified the greatest problem our kids, and a lot of their parents have as well titled Time for Living. Ray Stevens touched on the same issue with Mr. Businessman. A third tune on the same theme is Cats in the Cradle...

    Electric Vehicles for the ADF

    Do you see your own sarcasm here? Your statement implies no urgency in trips taken by organization or admin. It doesn't really matter if they run out of gas. So by all means duplicate your fleet: doubling the cost of local vehicles as you will still need at the very least some hybrids to go...

    Electric Vehicles for the ADF

    probably true but not before a lot of man years and dollars have been wasted that neither the Aussies nor any of the rest of us have to spare.

    Electric Vehicles for the ADF

    entire topic can be lumped into the category "insanity"

    Arctic/Offshore Patrol Ship AOPS

    Most likely. Its a common tale: the boss said GO and it is likely that saying no isn't really an option. I would like to here from the crews from the other two helicopters. We haven't heard anything from them at all.

    Arctic/Offshore Patrol Ship AOPS

    Serious question: was the Iranian Bell 212 the 80% solution?

    Cost of housing in Canada

    If the developers weren't always trying to get the town to approve exceptions to the plan they wouldn't have the same problem getting permits. Instead they ask for increased density, increased land coverage, more units per acre, no parks or smaller green spaces. It isn't that they can't afford...

    Pro/Anti Child Bearing Policies (split from "Canada don’t matter" thread)

    too true but nothing is done to change it

    Cost of housing in Canada

    with average rent over 3000 mortgages are actually cheaper. More like two or three families will have to learn to live together in the politicians townhouse

    Pro/Anti Child Bearing Policies (split from "Canada don’t matter" thread)

    has existed for years in the child welfare system. Couples that foster larger numbers of kids often use it as primary income. Can be quite profitable

    Pro/Anti Child Bearing Policies (split from "Canada don’t matter" thread)

    you sound like you are or were a Mike Harris fan!! Totally agree though. No one should receive money for sitting on their ass.

    Hamas invaded Israel 2023

    Syria has geography to protect the dissidents. Gaza has everyone crammed into a few square miles. There is no place to hide if you say anything to oppose the leadership

    Trudeau Popularity - or not (various polling, etc.)

    sadly, the senate is a Justin puppet. He has appointed most of them although theoretically they are independent. Lol
