    Government hints at boosting Canada’s military spending

    Maybe adopting a US-style of housing, where a barracks room or family unit is provided at no charge, according to living situation, and a rent subsidy is provided to those choosing to live off base, would solve this. Earning $72,000 a year and not pay rent would be a major attraction. And...

    Station a squadron on each coast, at Comox and either Greenwood, Shearwater or Gander.

    Lead by the best Prime Minister we never had.

    2025 Federal Election - 28 Apr 25

    No one. Because the Prime Minister doesn't appoint the governor of the Bank of Canada. The Bank of Canada's board of directors appoints the governor. The Prime Minister can block an appointment if they have sufficient reason to do so, but otherwise has no involvement in the process...

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

    Maybe have a squadron in Toronto and Ottawa. Opens up massive opportunities in dating and spouse employment for Anglos.

    Indirect Fires Modernization Project - C3/M777 Replacement

    Give the artillery a vehicle mounted 160mm. Everything under that calibre is infantry.

    Indirect Fires Modernization Project - C3/M777 Replacement

    Have they been updated to LAV 6? Do we have enough or should we order more?

    CAN Enhanced (Permanent?) Fwd Presence in Latvia

    What was the weather like that day? Maybe they buttoned up because it was cold, and there was just enough ice over the swamp to mistake it for ground.

    Indirect Fires Modernization Project - C3/M777 Replacement

    Should we have a dedicated artillery forward observer LAV variant?

    Our North - SSE Policy Update Megathread

    Most of their policy is probably just not canceling existing procurement, like the P-8 and F-35, like Chretien did with the "Cadillac 'elicopters".

    New Canadian Shipbuilding Strategy

    I was thinking they'd go to the Coast Guard and RCMP, and another version, maybe with less powerful engines, would be the training vessel.

    New Canadian Shipbuilding Strategy

    What if we built unmodified Sentinel-class cutters?

    New Canadian Shipbuilding Strategy

    Would it be possible to modify the Hero class design to accommodate the same number of trainees? Also, would it make sense to build more Hero class patrol boats for the RCMP and CBSA, to expand their marine patrolling? At 250 tons, any yard could do it.

    Indirect Fires Modernization Project - C3/M777 Replacement

    Would there be a case for a dedicated artillery forward observer variant of the ACSV?

    Indirect Fires Modernization Project - C3/M777 Replacement

    Maybe GDLS can see if a Mjölner turret will fit.

    Government hints at boosting Canada’s military spending

    Just like when Customs and Revenue turned into CBSA and received pistols, some agents resigned, because that wasn't what they signed up for.
