Tariff impacts? Alot of manufacturing has been working reduced hours in Q2 and Q3.

Between the years of 2025 to 2028 India will add more people to their population than our entire country. Let that sink in. My no longer having a plastic straw with my drink at the bar is really going to make a difference.

Seems that HMCS Corner Brook was recently up in Dutch Harbour, Alaska.

Need to cover the bridges in Sarnia, Windsor, Queenston, Niagara and Fort Erie, lol.

They’ve got lots and lots of strong engineers, maths, science majors in the Ukraine

They would in a heartbeat if they could get away with it and still keep whatever is left of their reputation. Would be interesting to see if the US would allow US gun rights to apply within an annexed Canada. Arming those Canadians opposing this, even if it’s 1/2 of 1%, that would still be 200k...

I would have major concerns of these Chinese EV’s gathering data about our streets/traffic patterns and sending it all back to China for them to hold

What's interesting is that in both your article coming out of Canada and the article that I posted coming directly from the US 'Defense Security Cooperation Agency' is that they BOTH used the words 'potential' or 'possible' sale to Canada. They used the words like it 'hinges on something else'...

Well, that's alot less than what was expected I believe. Someone else can chime in if I'm right on that. I thought that the number was around 5$ billion for this contract.

Go ask a US farmer if they are happy right about now with how 47 is running things. So when you mean 'Western provinces', what you're specifically talking about is the oil/gas employees in Alberta and some living people in the cities of Calgary, Edmonton and Red Deer - that's about it.

Wonder if Canadian flag and Canadian pin sales have spiked in the US over the last 8-9 months.

I believe that the original post said that the role came with 25 paid vacation days.

How does one truly assess the effectiveness of a CIWS unless its in a scenario such as this? Is it all about simulators now and not 'real world'?

5 weeks paid vacation is pretty solid as well. Add in the typical 10 paid holidays in Ontario and that's 7 weeks of vacation.

Start a Go Fund Me page!! I'd chip in some money for this if it was live streamed. Make it as close as possible to a 'real world test scenario' where a remote controlled CIWS on a ship goes up against air/sea drones operated by experienced weapons techs.
