Will that topup allow the RHG to sail past Alaska without needing to refuel?

So sabotage and assassination does work in Canada every time the Leafs go on the ice

Any word on the Coast Guard acquired Drone from Germany. It has caused some confused excitement in the skys near Greenwood.

A Submarine capability does not have to have sailors in them. Who knows what imagination will be developed for Arctic operations. Of course the most silent of the Naval service won't and shouldn't share.

Your point sadly exemplifies how the Deep Ottawa thinks about most defence decisions. Its OK for Ottawa to fuck around with fighter replacement as the USAF will always fill any gaps we create. So the ACTUAL defence of Canada is ultimately an American responsibility. This Whitehouse of course...

OH MY GOD Its just missing a Jukebox with Fleetwood Mack playing

Good question that I do not know the answer to. I do know they hire a lot of taxpayers that work at the Hilton, Macdonalds, Gas stations and other business's on the Reserve. Not everyone is Mic Maw.
