I can't believe there's CAF members that support this absolute travesty of a policy to cancel the F-35 purchase. We're our own worst enemy on procurement.

Green energy superpower. Also by superpower they mean we'll cut our GDP by 50% to reach NetZero and make absolutely 0 change to global emissions. Then we'll be the green energy superpower of the third world.

I'm sure a trucker will chime in, but usually with a full driver's licence (in Ontario its G not G2), A1 and B1 are granted as long as DDC, and potentially Safe Backing Course are completed if its the same when I got my 404s eons ago.

You're kidding right? Or trolling? Pollievre has made policy promises and announcements every single day since the campaign started. Carney has stolen half of them and he's just finished his third time in a 3 week old campaign not taking media questions or flat out hiding from the campaign...

As soon as you run additional courses you need additional staff. What you gain in direct training is lost in efficiency. If the problem is course content, you don't fix that by blowing up the system.

How many people in your section, and unit are you willing to give up to create a RCNLRS and a new logistics school? If RCN wants better training, create it and push CMP/CDA to add modules to current DP1. We're too damn small, too damn underfunded and too short of people to make good on...

@lenaitch You're talking out of both sides of your mouth. If young people aren't politically engaged they're never going to care about Jenni Byrne in a MAGA hat. You're are right in that social media run by China as a giant InfoOp or by 90%+ left leaners in Silicon Valley skews the view to the...

Except somehow for CWO corps, which is borderline grievable because women and men have different standards for Platnium (most in that zone are around the same 45+ age group).

@lenaitch The folks that believe CPC will remove abortion rights are folks ideologically in sync with LPC or NDP and will never, ever, vote Tory. Despite an almost 10 year majority rule and multiple leaders stating over multiple years in multiple unequivocal statements each year that they will...

Claiming the CPC is going to reverse abortion rights in Canada is a polite version of Goodwin's Law. People only trot that out once any legitimate argument they had has been trounced.

5 grand out of 10s of millions in fundraising doesn't buy a lot of influence. A $250M loan probably does though.

That doesn't make you eligible for Pte(T). It makes you eligible for a Pte IPC credit of 180 days which should have been applied on enrollment. Pte R, B and T are all paid on the same scale.

It means it's equivalent to a 6 week cadet trade course. If you don't have cadet time this doesn't apply to you.

I mean, the article selectively used quotes from PCO, and not CSIS. Actual story is much less rosey (unless through LPC-tinted glasses): Content was "loosely positive" and "fairly laudatory". Over the top positively would be easily flagged as IO campaign support, this is the kind of...

See, it's not the thing. He's refusing to be read into a compartmented program so he doesn't have to be bound by official secrets act. That's not the same as not having a security clearance. He could have TSSA lmnopq caveats but still require the NDA for compartmented information that is likely...

You mean the NDA that muzzles his criticism? The continued use of "security clearance" by people who should know what a read-in NDA for a special program is really just cheap partisan shots instead of fact based criticism. If there was actual evidence of candidates being influenced, he'd be read...

Antifa is a domestic terror group. Being "anti-fascist" is as useless as changing your Facebook profile picture. I'd wager 99.99% of Canadians are anti-fascist. The ones that tell people they are are attention seaking activists trying to create a Nazi strawman waiting just around the corner for...

You're quoting Press Progress, basically as far left as you can get without being Antifa. Rachel Gilmore is a far left reporter that didn't bother hiding her bias and has been let go by 2 media outlets. CTVNews hiring her to "fact check", which is such a loaded term I have no idea why mainstream...

I mean, dropping $32B a year is the opposite of that. It's also done very little for the lives of many on-reserves first nations. An Avalanche of Money: The Federal Government’s Policies Toward First Nations

Contrast Carney's waffling with actual decisive leadership: EXCLUSIVE: Conservative candidate booted after CTV News uncovers audio of him joking Trudeau should receive death penalty Less than 24 hours and that CPC candidate didn't even get a chance to resign.
