I am sure who ever will bid and purchase the Aircraft have a great overhaul system to address those issues. Again, those who would be interested in these used aircraft would also have a maintenance process that would address those issues and concerns. The only stop will be if Canada refuses...

Similar to a certain excercise on a certain naval air station more then a few years ago where a group of well armed men in a white van performed a snatch and grab of the Admiral selects assistant. Hours later we errr I mean the white van was pulled over by the local Police with firearms drawn...

I am sure they have plenty of life in them once the government replaces them. Nothing a long shop period cant find, fix and modify to continue their life doing other duties. High hours means reliability.

So do I understand this correctly. $3.9billion for the first phase. Plus the $371.8 From 2024 allocated for the first design phase. Unknown cost of the overall project. I am not sure we can actually afford this. I would hope the project would be funded entirely by Ontario and Quebec taxes...

Yup happend to more then a few of us.

No confusion at all. lots of open sources in regards to this issue and others.

Trump should clean up his own yard before telling others how to clean up theirs. Lots of open sources on China and its attempted and or influence on US politics, media and trade. U.S. goods imports from China in 2024 totaled $438.9 billion U.S. goods exports to China in 2024 were $143.5...

A few of you have stated the issues. It is the entire system of procurement has failed. From what I have seen it simply is set up to line the pockets of many people along the way. Not to provide quick cost effective procurement of products to the end user. It is sad,because they are not...

All those who think not a drop of oil, piece of soft wood or mineral should leave this country need to think about the use for the product. Most Coal for example leaves to be used to make steel. Unless we want large steel making plants here again then the finished product is the coal itself...

I use to work my full time civi job, take time off for weekly runs as required (Fridays and some Thursdays) for the unit and put in 6-8 hrs evenings just to make things work. It was all for a better process going forward. We had three people putting in 30-40plus hrs a week keeping the Bty...

That's reality of their initial promise. But you would have done the research into their process. The history of their program was for a outright ban of ICE vehicles. Then reality set in. Manufactures can't make that many vehicles, what about the big trucks? Then there is that little devil...

Your supporting the use of electric vehicles here and abroad. You don't know about things happening here in Canada. I thought you said you were well versed in these matters. I guess not as much as you think you are which is surprising considering how much you support your opinions. If you type...

LOL, yet vehicle prices across the board have increased. LOL, matching volumes seems silly. out of the price range for most, coupled with the actual cost of usage will limit those further. With out extremely large subsidies the electric vehicle market is a no go for many consumers. We are...

Once the subsidies go away (which they are) the costs start piling up. The average citizen realizes they don't have the money to buy, operate and maintain one. Not really, but sort of in a round about way. Most of the large fleets of delivery are running electric motorcycles and or three...

Rivian is having a hard time with meeting their current commitments. Amazon let them out of their contract to try and find new customers and clients to make more money. Amazon is a 15%shareholder and lost nine hundred million dollars on their investment. No culture war and no talking heads...

You should revisit that deal, actual orders and actual delivery times were on the low side. The exclusivity deal was ended. Again without heavy subsidies electric vehicles are not holding their own even in Europe. But when gasoline is $2.59/liter cdn. People will try what ever they can to cut...

Like what is specialized that cant be installed or fitted in a sea can?

I think the Diesel electric or gas electric is a great way to go. I can see a large Military application for this system. Every truck can run silent for 4 or five hours if required. When at the bivouac they can use the generator (s) to power the camp. Excellent ideas.

Check these guys out. About the best process I have seen so far. I even think it makes sense for Military Suppprt vehicles. They are working on a system for pickup trucks...
