    New Canadian Shipbuilding Strategy

    Depends on what part of BC and SK you go to. Many I know from the island and Northern BC like Alberta to the point they work there regularly. Without that work they wouldn't be able to sustain their lifestyle they have grown accustomed to. Most of the people I have had conversations with from...

    Pipelines, energy and natural resources

    I wonder what the Chery Point Spill response is or compared to Vancouver Harbor? All this Congressman is trying to do is delay our access to other markets. Nothing more and nothing less. The spill response for the area has already been discussed years ago during the original proposal. Any...

    2026 Wildfire Season

    I don't have no cpap machine, nor do my friends have them or mental health tags. The majority if not all of my military friends would look forward to defending our Country on our ground for once. They would not want to fight our neighbors and good friends to the south. That only hinges on if...

    2026 Wildfire Season

    Not sure why Canada has not started to charge the US for all the pollution coming from them into the north. But this it starting to feel like a pre text to a hostile take over. He is still pushing to annex Greenland and Canada. I am all for Canada working on building a Nuclear, biological and...

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

    T The last A+ were used by one of the Reserve Sustainment units out of Mirimar and flew the last one in 2024. I thought they were still flying them. I remember they had pulled some of their low hour A/C/D models out of the yard to help when the F35 was not delivered on time. There was a bit...

    I guess their last flight was 2024 for the A+ model.

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

    I understand they still have a few A+ models flying. A couple of years ago they went though the older models with lower hours to make it through to 2030.

    CH-148 Cyclone Progress

    Interesting read on that matter. The door is still open just for private and exceptional circumstances for commercial uses. It will also be interesting to see what the US and Mexico do also as they are all tied into similar programs.

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

    Lots of people either glossed over or never knew that Canada was not actually trying to replace the F18 with the F35. There was possibly a interim fighter replacement, that could carry over into the 6th and even 7th gen programs. A multi role jet that could do a it of everything especially carry...

    My MP gets back to me with in a day or two max. Even if it is the generic reply we are looking into things. Then they usually call and or send a emailed and or a letter response within week with the answer or what they are doing to deal with the matter. Even though there is not much they can do...

    Logistic Vehicle Modernization Project - Replacing everything from LUVW to SHLVW

    For the Oil and Gas workers money money money. The Oil field first starts off slow trying to hire the right people for the right position that is already trained. Reality sets in that you can't hire a safety minded, experienced trained dedicated worker. So you start to throw money at the...

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

    How about we ask for the US's half for the Gordie Howe Bridge and call it even. Most of those industrial offsets were specialized Canadian Companies who made things others did not and or could not.
