I wonder if they paid the entrance fees and expenses for the other candidates to make it seem as if it was democratic?

small side bar: there appear to be as many off-shore candidates admitted to medical courses as there are Canadian residents. How do you expect to get the positions filled when 50% or more of your graduates go back to their homeland?

Is Haida available?

Why are you trying to pin it on the generation gap? It wasn't old line of thinking that disposed of a lot of the base housing and allowing the remainder to deteriorate: It was Ottawa nickel and diming. Likewise for the on-base schools. The medical staff should have been available to...

They have been around for a while. They originally organized to attack O'Toole and have been laying in the grass since. Their website says they are a group of annonymous donors who are concerned about Canada and the direction that a conservative party would lead. Their spokesman was an NDP...

possibly so but the greater issue comes under the heading of indoctrination. We have at least 20 years worth of a school system that has put down manly activities and labelled those who pursues them as Neanderthals. That same system has put down those who admit to being proud Canadians and in...

must be a real joy having her watching your back

See where Harper has joined the clamor against Carney, denying that he had anything to do with maintaining financial stability in Canada in the 08 crunch: he attributes it all to his finance minister at the time. Carney is looking less and less like our saviour every day.

Even though I wrote it I agree with your comments which is why a just settlement short of total victory is not attainable. Russia is already saying they won't accept European piecekeepers at all so unless that changes the gathering of the willing is a non-starter. If they change and say they...

No agreement signed by Putin and Trump without boots on the ground from ALL Nato countries and a commitment to initiate Article 5 if Russia so much as sends a reconnaissance drone over the border is worth any more than the paper its printed on. I also haven't heard anyone demanding that the...

15 csc,s AND 16 subs and 12 Corvettes somewhere betwen 1,600-3,200 tonnes and have a 57 or 76 bow gun and some mix of ASW and Air/Surface capabilities. It is not a friendly world out there

Does his own right wing allegiance mean that what he has to say is wrong? Of course not to answer my own question. Nor should it be accepted as gospel but simply as another factor to consider when assessing Carney's suitability to replace Trudeau. Canada has one chance every 4 years to select...

The Russians had the notion of mounting a reactor in a ship's hull, independent of the propulsion unit to provide a portable power source. Not a bad idea for places like Churchill. Saves a bundle on foundation/ground preparation and avoids the issue of permafrost.

serious question: could Trump forbid the use of or further transfers of F16s

pardon the vernacular, but your approach would have advised him to shut up and suck. The Ukraines have earned the right to stand with their heads held high. Vance had no right to attack in the manner in which he did. All that the Ukraines wanted was some assurance that someone had their back...

never was very good with math, me bad

I read it that Davie would build the large Icebreaker working with Seaspan's blueprints which gives Davie time to come up with a design for the middle grade fleet while coming up to speed on the construction methodology since it has been a while since they actually built from the ground up so to...

That photo takes me back to North Bay and the Bomarc era

st staying out of it was probably the only way they could go against him without severe repercussions.

Sad in a way. The U.S. paired with Russia whilst most of what used to be the USSR block either abstained or avoided the vote entirely. My Uncle Sam is keeping bad company
