Carney has spent a lot of energy and time expounding on the benefits of European collaboration. Perhaps Germany is providing him with talking points from them to justify his decision

Sauble comes into the picture. A number of cottagers up there lost their family retreats as leases were not remewed

The only issues that I would personally favour going to referendum or those regarding constitutional changes. A cleverly worded question can achieve the goal of a minority whilst screwing others e.g. the naming of Thunder Bay when Fort William and Port Arthur amalgamated. There were 3 choices...

so Canada, with an area of almost 10 million sq. km figures 88 a/c will do the trick whilst a country 1/10 our size opts for over 100. I think we are looking at our requirements all wrong. We are thinking peace with a commensurate military size but as Europe is starting to do, we need to think...

from experience: depends. Trenton had a basement, Esquimalt a slap but the one next door had a basement

also looks like Ukraine is ensuring that a Donald Trump scenario never happens again

and then they put the next one 4 ft. from those lovely windows so no light gets in anyway. At least for singles and duplexes, stay with the lot, gut the interior and get a standard 2 or 3 bed design with your open concept living area and do them all the same. They aren't intended for re-sale...

now that is where factory built would come into its own. Bulldoze the site, erect the foundation on the same footprint so no delays with surveys and approvals and so on and then truck it in. PMO in a month

some high paid lawyer would argue successfully that this would be discrimination and the law would be overturned although I fully agree.

he is just fanning the flames. There are still several (used to be called) NDP types who can easily be bought off. There won't be an election. Much as I would love to see Carney and company gone, there are not enough voters who are afraid for Canada re: his policies particularly on resources...

Air force training begins with a simple single engine, fixed gear civilian modified aircraft and progresses in complexity and lethality from there. Why are so many even here reluctant to apply the same training process to the navy?

There are still a number of navies that maintain and utilize a large sailing vessel to teach seamanship and leadership. With budgets the way they are, there must be some rationale they are relying on to justify the expense And they definitely aren't armed except for maybe the odd 12 gauge.

too true. they keep making the same mistake: trying to find a real leader instead of a clothes horse

you have a good memory. A trip down memory lane can be a very humbling experience

They take the Constitution out into the harbour on an annual basis, turn it around and tie up on the alternative side if I remember the tour guide correctly
