The Supreme Court as already in effect ruled that that is the case as Bill C69 was unconstitutional due to Federal overreach into provincial jurisdiction. Some Liberal tinkering has not changed that. https://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.6993720

Seems like Canadians have a massive disconnect with reality on the linkages amongst the items on the X axis. Also massive disconnects between root causes and effects.

How do you think companies factor in the LPC emissions cap? Are these projects economically viable under an emissions cap? The stated intent here is to reduce GHG emission by oil and gas by 35% from 2019 levels...

GMARS vs HIMARS 2 Pods vs 1 Lockheed increasing ability to manufacture their systems via European manufacturing lines? https://www.rheinmetall.com/en/products/tactical-wheeled-vehicles/wheeled-armoured-vehicles/gmars

Trump Administration aside, it’s likely beneficial for Canada to get involved in one of the 6th Gen programs now. Similar to how we joined the JSF program in 1997. Maybe though we can learn to not insist on a fly off competition between GCAP, FCAS and NGAD after spending 15 years resourcing and...

Here is a running tally of policy announcements in this election; https://www.ctvnews.ca/federal-election-2025/article/promise-tracker-what-the-parties-are-pitching-in-the-federal-election-campaign/ My key takeaway from this election so far is that no party or leader is seriously concerned...

At an individual level I would say that statement is correct but it’s wrong at a societal level. A country and its national government needs to care about the birth rate, that’s tied to immigration levels, and a bunch of things. If the birth rate is skewed in some manner generally the...

Na, the Engr got there own LAV 6.0 ELAV thing.

The OPV and Engr LAVs were all upgraded to LAV 6 at the same time as the Infantry ISC LAVs were.

Numerous threads to energize if people are interested. Also lots of thoughts and ideas. Ie. Ricks Napkin Challenge- The Infantry Section and Platoon Or https://army.ca/forums/threads/infantry-of-tomorrow.23394/

We could, however it would likely be harder than you would expect. We would likely want to use Colt Canada, but it’s been 30 plus years since they have built a C9. The C9 A2 program was a refit not a build program. Due to the transition path from Diamaco to CZ Group, the TDP and IP stuff means...

Simply saying that considerations of mass are still a concern. Exact scenarios are always guesses. Agreed but I think you missed my overall point, which is again mass. Even with the F35 and a 100% pK of its load out, considerations of ability to mass effects in time and space are still a...

Canada: Challenge accepted eh! Hey dude watch my beer I got this. 😎

In terms of mass a fleet of 36 F35s airborne can carry the following missile load out; Internal bay only: 216 Internal and External: 576 I wonder what those missile load outs x the kill probability of the missiles would equal? The Aim 120 operational pK seems to be at least 80%. So 216 Aim...

Are we looking to buy another Chinook and Cyclone to replace the ones we have lost? I think that answer might give some insight into our overall attrition replacement plan.

Looking at those numbers 51% of the largest cohort in the poll support the LPC. That cohort of voters is female over age 55. Interestingly enough that over 51% of female over 55 provides the same amount of votes to the LPC as all other female age classes combined. Male support is more...

If I am remembering correctly there is an intent to replace the M3 84mm. However I seem to recall that it’s approaching the problem not from an iterative upgrade, ie. buying the M4 with the Aimpoint FCS and modern ammo natures. Instead it’s coming at it from a SRAAW Heavy perspective. It’s...

Seems this election might see a very wide divide between those over age 55 and those under 55. https://nationalpost.com/opinion/boomer-millennial-divide-defining-the-canadian-election https://leger360.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Leger-CAN_voting_intentions_March_24th-FINAL.pdf This poll...

Having a suite of RCN radars and data links; on CCG ships in the current CCG configuration; plugged into the Defence networks would not meet the requirements for NATO to include those items into our 2%. The NATO wording seems clear. The CCG would need to be trained, equipped and able to...

In terms of forgiveness, the LPC has used guns as a wedge for over 30 years. Whatever Carney says is irrelevant as the LPC as an entity regardless of leadership has thrown firearms ownership under the bus of political convenience in the pursuit of Toronto and Montreal votes. Trudeau stated...
