or Carney will be revealed as the Emperor with no clothes in the same manner as Trudeau. With his history since January do you really think he can go 4 years without being caught out again and again and again as a liar.

or the chinese? They probably have more to gain than the u.s. by de-stabilizing any western country

do you need more than one supplier? I wouldn't think the total need for specialty steel for the navy would keep more than one kiln up and running. Be more logical to have the mills agree on their specialty range and go from there. or would it?

the good thing is, she can't give her opinion

the first 10 years all profits are supposed to go into re-building Ukraine and after that it is a 50/50 split so perhaps one of those rare win-win outcomes.

anyone willing to live in weather at -40 for 5 months of the year deserves to receive the benefits from that flammable mud and the banker in Toronto has no business trying to horn in. We all profit albeit not to the same extent granted when a barrel of oil is shipped to Texas in the same way...

don't think they will agitate for an early election unless it is a really obvious deviation from the election platform. For example, if the libs plan for replacing the carbon tax is smoke and mirrors and the tax payers are painfully on the hook or if they continue to obstruct resource...

Isn't Carney one of their disciples?

There are a whole lot of people who are betting on war within 5 years; 10 at the most. We should have started planning, training, and buying at least 5 years ago. I will defer to the air force as to what a/c they need to take into battle but 88 only meets our peacetime requirements where...

would they want NFLD back? After all they rejected Malta's application

So the long and the short of it is; the air force is in actuality, an AIR FARCE. Not belittling the serving members at all but there are probably larger civilian flying clubs that have more active pilots than we have in the air force. 88 aircraft do not replace 300 which is the number of 104s...

You keep them proficient by letting them fly which means access to a simulator for much of it and enough hours in the air to solidify the lessons from the sim. Where do you get them? Offer a Porter captain the chance to fly an F18 today with someone else footing the bill and he will jump at...
