    2023 CAF Recruiting Ad

    Combat arms, like combat sports are summed up nicely by Joe Rogan. "High level problem solving with dire physical consequences" Anyone who puts themselves in harms way for the good of others should be paid the most but society never does that. The most physically demanding jobs are the least...

    Or they come on here as part of their research and see the intense negativity that is the norm here and suddenly reconsider.

    Lawyer dies after his hidden gun goes off during MRI scan

    Same, I had to get an x-ray of my eyes to make sure I didn't have any metal in them (mechanic). They gave me shorts and a shirt to wear and they even gave me a new mask because the one given to me in the lobby had a metal wire in it.

    2023 CAF Recruiting Ad

    I know nothing about being enlisted but Covid and the GOC's response to it would leave me not really wanting to risk my life for the politicians that behaved so very badly. I love the Canada I grew up in but I do not love the Canada Trudeau is trying to build. I'm sure retention and recruitment...

    CMMA - replacing the CP140 Aurora

    I'm not sure it would be that bad. PAL has successfully built an MPA from a Dash 8, the P-6 is supposed to use similar systems as the P-4. If the article is right and they get a launch customer it won't be an orphan fleet. I do realize that's a big if. Bombardier has a global support network...

    CMMA - replacing the CP140 Aurora

    Excuse my ignorance, if it can drop torps and sonobuoys and find and track subs than why would it be a bad buy? The planes size dosen't always denote capability. " CP-140M Aurora: Long-range maritime reconnaissance, anti-submarine warfare (ASW) aircraft for the Canadian Forces. Based on the...

    New Canadian Shipbuilding Strategy

    I was at the 2017 (I think) Summerside air show and toured the CP-140. I asked the Pilot about the speed as I had once heard the CP-140 and/or P-3 held the record for the fastest turbo prop production aircraft. He had not heard this but said they limit air speed to around half to prevent...

    Isn't that why the Falklands attack was successful? It never occurred to the Argentines that the brits would walk 56 miles across the Island. At least that is what one documentary said.

    The Great Gun Control Debate- 2.0

    The Great Gun Control Debate- 2.0

    Hopefully it ends like "Wang (David) Chen case and he gets acquitted. It's absolutely ridiculous how the police in this country arrest innocent people when they try to defend themselves or their property but let the bad guys get off. The crown even gave the thief a deal to testify against...

    CMMA - replacing the CP140 Aurora

    If that makes us actually buy stuff then yeah! American arms even if not the absolute best for Canada in every case are good quality and have great support. Better than our indecisive government pandering us into a disaster. Oh wait, too late!

    Bringing 'Em Back or Not? (I.D.'ed Cdn ISIS fighters, families, kids?)

    People like to cry rights in these cases, what about the rights of innocents? Extremists will extreme! Bring them back and let them run free and who knows what jihad shit they'll pull here or what other country they will run off to to further their cause. Canada should ensure Canadians are safe...

    A little (or a lot) of imposter syndrome in there as well, Canadians think nothing of defending Europe or Korea, or Kuwait, or Afganistan but we don't see the need to defend Canada. It's like we think "why would anyone attack us, hell most people don't even want to visit our frozen wasteland"

    Haitian leaders must all agree before Canada would lead a potential military intervention, Trudeau says

    It's done, we own it now. We sent assets to Haiti so as far as the world sees it its our problem. It will be 100 times harder to get anyone else to intervene now.
