Possible but why would oil be shipped to the East Coast, juts keep it moving to Europe. Are you asking if they ship it to Churchill via pipelines, then load it on tankers to James Bay, then pipeline it to Refineries on the East Coast? I would build a Refinery in Churchill, ship the oil there...

I think we should be looking at the South African 105mm systems in my opinion for replacement of our 105 systems not 120mm mortar. We could order 300 of these gun systems. 200 Towed and 100 turreted. Mount the turrets on a LAV chassis. Integrate them into the LAV battalions. It is a...

What percentage of fires are caused by ATV's and or their operators? Break that down even more into how many because of lack of spark arrestors? I am curious what the data shows here in Canada.

What makes one IFV /APC more survivable then another? Base armor structure is similar or the same across the board. Aluminum/composite for the main structure. Some are made with a steel base. Next we have various armor plates of steel and or composites added. Some spaced some not to increase its...

Keep calling. What BC company was that? Actually curious I cant find the contract for that one. LOL, like Almiq Contracting/ Laval Fortin Group, SM Construction Group, Stantech. Are those the companies your talking about? but true. Thats what makes it so tiresome. The original plan and...

Companies figure out a way to make money and be profitable. The government finds a way to pay a company (s) in Central Canada to pretend to do work and make research projects to line their pockets. Then deliver a inferior product with little to any consequences. :rolleyes:

Medicine hat has a Large UAV test area. Formost Airspace. They can also utilize CFB Suffield.

China had offered to buy the oil in the second pipeline, but made strict stipulations at the time. As they had to have the line operational for 2016. No delays, no nonsense. They had bought interest in many of the northern oil projects but did not have a way to ship the oil. when delay after...

Also who owns the rail car manufacters. Who owns or has large shares in tankers that ship to the east coast from ME. It is interesting when the money is followed.

36-40 billion of tax payer money sunk into the project. High transit fees has a little effect. Tanker traffic bans, concerns. Who wants to sign a deal to ship oil only to have the government ban the ships they need to transport their product. Limits of production on oil. It takes a couple of...

That is a bad incident. RIP to the Sailors who lost their lives. speedy recovery the remainder who were injured.

I often wonder how different the news is across the country. I know many news agencies run extremely biased articles on the norm. Often opinions are passed off as facts. I know my family and friends back east often ask me what is being reported out west as things do not make sense.

The Federal, Three provincial governments tried to kill the pipeline. What happened was a industry said ok then we will shut things down and sit and wait until a more friendly group gets into power. Then the Natives made complaints that they lost hundreds of millions in contracts. It took about...

They are correct, Ottawa has treated Ab as a bank machine while putting up roadblocks to the way they earn money to restock the bank machine. Even when the Ab economy took a swing for the worse the Federal Government still demanded the same level of money. (kind of like alimony child support)...

I am pretty sure China was in Ukraine prior to the latest hostilities developing tech and exploring minerals. Things might get real interesting in the coming months over this deal.

Horse power was low causing problems. They did offer a upgraded engine in the 650hp range. But India refused to trial it, instead going with their domestic built vehicle.

They have a picture of the SPH fully inside the C130. It does physically fit. If you scroll down you can see a picture of it fully inside the c130 https://www.scribd.com/document/83167552/Denel-G7-105mm-SPG

Begleitpanzer 57 prototype by Germany.https://tanks-encyclopedia.com/coldwar/westgermany/begleitpanzer-57-aifsv/ This might make a good multi purpose gun system, even if it was for Rear area Air defense, tie in with a Radar system. Mount it on a tank chassis.

I agree the ECS was a pain in the butt, so was trying to find someone Certified to rig the FCS cables. No where did I say do more with less. We need more aircraft, we need more staff. One person cant fix 5 aircraft at the same time. Oh wait we did that all the time, you more then likely...

Good for them. Makes it even worse that a Maintenance Supervisor feels his staff can't maintain two types of aircraft.
