Not a option anymore unfortunately, those people likely wouldn’t hold up to the commissars ethics requirements to be in uniform.

The reality of modern manufacturing is we can make so much so fast. The problem is it takes time to make the tooling needed to do so. A mold used in making a car might take 6 months to a year. There might be multiple molds needed. The specialized machines which will drill out ream and finish...

The Conservatives aren’t exactly defence oriented either. Lots of talk, lack of deeds (by numbers the Liberals have actually contributed more per capita in the last 40 years). We don’t have a truly pro-military party in Canada, no one has been at 2% GDP since the 80s.

Can’t keep raising the costs eternally if the regions income isn’t following suit. Eventually something has to give.

None, because they don’t care. The revolving door justice system we have I am convinced is the perk in the minds of the elites not a con. Last I checked it averages 160k—250k a year per prisoner. Not funding it enough so they get released costs a lot less. The politicians and their ilk can...

So basically standard Canadian practice, low quality results and no plan to correct it.

Alternatively how about we keep the charges on the potential murderers and instead charge the criminal jail guards instead? If the jail guards are failing to follow the law that isn’t the justice systems fault, that is the guards. Root out the bad ones and put the legal boots to them.

How about we change OAS so it just applies to those that need it? It is welfare, period. We shouldn’t be providing welfare for those making above the average individual income, let alone average household income. Whatever the poverty level is for the area should be the determining income for...

No offense but your generation failed to pay its way. Greatly increased government spending well never increasing taxes enough to pay for it. Yes you paid in, but not enough for what you received or want to receive. That burden now falls on your children and grandchildren. Unfortunately we are...

There are ways to encourage retention and recruiting. For example if they made a bunch of Nelles Block type buildings (4 to a room, communial bathrooms and a mess hall) in the larger cities, offered free lodgings in said rooms and assistance paying for schooling (or completely paying for...

I mean they aren’t wrong about systemic racism existing. It still exists and permeates our whole society. How else can you have a two tier system where some based on birth are granted more rights and freedoms than anyone else and everyone else can never have the same amount of legal rights and...

Recruiting would have to change to make those numbers, but that could be a positive thing. As long as they can pass a medical and a security clearance they should be able to join. Mind you this also means your military is going to be more reflective of society warts and all.

We can however kick said ambassador out and make the point that we won’t tolerate such behaviour from a high level diplomat. If you want to be treated with respect, sometimes you need to demand it.

Maybe it’s time to declare someone persona non grata.

I wouldn’t call them a enemy, however they are the greatest potential threat. Mind you without nukes we couldn’t do anything to that threat so unless we decided to get serious on defence as a country we are basically at their mercy.
