    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    ask a Maltese about the Arabs. On a slightly different note, a college of mine from Malta's ancestors immigrated to Malta around 1700. They are still considered to be foreigners. People over there just don't forget. It is like the Hadfield and McCoy's on steroids.

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

    not when your government is headed by a person who appears to worship royalty. In that case it is the action that confirms the handshake.

    All Things First Nations - CF help, protests, solutions, residential schools, etc. (merged)

    So I looked at Wiarton with a population of about half of the band and its budget (reflecting a 3.5% increase was 13.5 million. Brighton with a population 3 times that of the band has an operating budget of 20 mill. and is backing a 42 million dollar capital expenditure budget to put in sewers...

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    I beg to differ. Their was the Scottish/British border wars, the Welsh/English border wars, the Irish wars and that is just GB. We could throw in a half dozen mini-wars between France and Germany or the German States (exclusive of Napoleon), the conflicts between Spain and Islam, Italy in...

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

    the go-to substitute seems to be the Raphael. How would it compare for a NORAD role? Is it compatible and does it have the legs for northern dispersal? And finally, would it work for maintenance and service in an austere environment?

    10,000 year old fish weir under the arctic ice

    no basket or net at the end. It would only be shut off when actually in use.

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    why would you need all the fancy stuff that military cart around? Contract with Veritas to mfg shovels and axes. Find a Canadian garment factory to re-open and mfg. coveralls, jeans, tee-shirts and get Kodiak to start producing boots in Canada again. The force that is being discussed...

    10,000 year old fish weir under the arctic ice

    The Piri Reis map, the Antikythera mechanism, the precision fit of the pyramid construction etc. etc. are all proof that those primitive folks knew a lot more than we give them credit for. Steam engines and batteries also exist in the B.C. past

    Replacing the Subs

    interesting question. Would an Argus be able to locate and track a KSS-111? Would that old system be sensitive enough. If the answer to that is yes then the age of the aircraft has little to do with it. ASW depends upon the stuff inside and if a sub hunter has equipment racks that can be...

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    so do you believe the anti-vaxers and their lies or the government with theirs? They are both liars and neither has our best interests at heart.

    Chinese Military,Political and Social Superthread

    won't happen. Too many special interests looking to make money to ever shit on China. Just witness Carney's latest performance or Trump's for that matter

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    are you going to start with all the lies they told re: covid? People just don't believe anymore simply because they have lots of examples to show exactly why they shouldn't.

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

    Don't get me wrong, I am amazed at the things that the F35 can do and that are in development for it but before latching on to the claim that they are unstoppable remember that the F22 was tracked with 40 year old radar technology and downed as a result. The F22. fpr those too young to remember...
