It’s no so much Danielle Smith one has to be concerned with ‘fondness’ of the concept. It’s the incumbent First Nations on Treaty 8 land (and the unceded mineral (including oil) rights agreed between the federal Crown and those bands… Albertans who believe that oil and gas in Alberta is...

Not much different than many programs we have as well. CH-147F airframes as bought DCS (direct commercial sale) from Boeing *were contractually different than the engines that were bought FMS from USG, so a ‘GFE’ of sorts, even in Canadian programs.

So, civilian/commercial HR partners who know how to do things properly then?

Legal.

The red-orange smoke is nitrogen dioxide. This is looking like Beruit 2020 or Tianjin, China in 2015 - ammonium nitrate fertilizer stored incorrectly.

SKT noted the practical fail. If there hadn’t been a collision then it might or might *not be an outright failure. Mindful that I haven’t flown in about a decade, but as a past standards and instrument check pilot, if a pilot under evaluation was inconsistent in route and altitude control in a...

My son was on STJ at the time, but was seconded to FRE for their SNMG work ups, and knows several of those lost. He was posted to FRE after that tour. Sombre day indeed. 😔

Without his law school time friendship with VPOTUS, one would agree it’s odd…but here we are. I muse/wonder/predict that Trump will apply some level of tariff reduction/waiver to the ‘Heartbeat of America’ Chevy Silverado light-duty and heavy-duty pick ups made just next door to Jivani’s...

A very sad anniversary, Tar. 😔 RIP to the aviators and sailors. Fair winds and following seas…

79% voter turnout. Not sure yet, but that could well be a record turnout level of any riding in any election. Some (many) will see this as a repudiation of the flavor of Poilievre’s brand with an otherwise broader support of conservatism in Canada. Will be interesting to see how the CPC moves...

There was a chain of compounding errors, however, it shouldn’t be under appreciated that the Black Hawk was out of parameters for minutes, not just seconds, before the collision.

I contend that our choice may not be effectively any better than Trump-Harris, as far as choices that could reasonably be seen to move Canada forward to a new, internationally vibrant, participative and resilient position in trade and politics.

…probably something like: “Today, America moves forward with its tariffs, to keep Canadian cars from flooding America and destroying the things we hold dear. Americans will be especially comforted to know the likes of these horrible Canadian vehicles, helped in great part by China, will pay a...

Exactly, and *baro alt is also displayed prominently in the NVG HUD as well as the Radalt height.

Potential contributing factors. Not sure who was doing the GPS spoofing, that’s down in L-band (1-1.2GHz) while C-UAS is up in C-band (~5.8GHz). Radar altimeters often are in high S-band (~4GHz), and there are known issues with LTE and 5G interacting with aircraft radalts*. That said...

I hadn’t seen the NTSB release the Black Hawk’s CVR… 🤔

Perhaps an anomaly, but stats say that 40% of Carleton riding’s entire eligible voter list voted in the 18-21 April advance polls, so I think voter turnout should be good in many/most ridings.

Macron wasn’t bad, but Poland’s First Lady was. Chef’s Kiss!! https://www.threads.com/@dhbowzeryournonbinarydad/post/DI1kPP-RblA. (From 2017, but still on point)

My millennial son (NWO on an ashore tour at Dockyards) shunned the compressed downtown Halifax (condo in Bedford Basin) and moved out towards Peggy’s Cove. SDH in a small strata unincorporated community that has a shared ice rink in the winter and community-funded access road snow clearing. He...

Canada: “Now we’re talking!”
