    It just seems like three.

    Pipelines, energy and natural resources

    I was under the impression that part of the reason for planting SMRs on an existing nuclear plot was a 'proof of concept' role. There's not a lot of real world experience with SMRs, and part of their alleged attraction is repeatability and scalability (up or down). At the OPG site east of...

    Pipelines, energy and natural resources

    It would seem that if that level of scrutiny or 'proofing' is necessary, best not to rely on components from a questionable source to begin with. Using fully separate networks by private industry (even for government and military I imagine) would be going in a completely opposite direction than...

    New Canadian Shipbuilding Strategy

    Aren't we putting something like that with the new oilers?

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    So you have always used the spelling 'recognise', 'synchonise' or 'aluminium' (with the second 'i')?

    Pipelines, energy and natural resources

    Ok for an off-grid residential/small commercial user. How does a large, distributed utility operate sites if they are not networked?

    New Canadian Shipbuilding Strategy

    Without some kind of embarked sealift/airlift, it strikes me that relying on a ship that is dependent on some kind of shore facility seems quite limiting. Nunavut is over 2Mn sqkm and currently has, what, one deep water port. Even with a few more, Murphy says they would not be where we needed...

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    Is there any indication that there have been overt/covert discussions between Canada and France at any level?

    No, not really. Merry Christmas.

    NORAD Ready to Track Santa

    Drugs or no drugs, damn socialists - giving out toys, for free, I can't tariff 'free'. Our daughter did a stint on the NORAD call centre. She said it was busy. They are given a script of answers to FAQs, but one caller asked 'where does Santa poop?' (Not on the script, apparently). She said...

    Trump Class Battleships?

    But images like #27 work. No worries. I'll survive. Tnx

    Pipelines, energy and natural resources

    There are apparently two systems out there; neither are straight EV. What they call a 'parallel' sounds like a hybrid. It runs on electricity until an engine has to kick in to run pumps, etc. A 'series' system is essentially an EV with an on board generator that kicks when the batteries become...

    CAN-USA Tariff Strife (split from various pol threads)

    Gaa. Kevin O'Leary; is there a way we can revoke citizenship from a naturally-born person? Process Gretzky while we're at it.

    Trump Class Battleships?

    You know I thought I posted it somewhere but I do follow a couple of forums. I guess it was considered political. Some forums will tell you when they nuke a post. Maybe in the 'funny pics' thread, but I won't go begging. I thought it was funny. Tnx

    Pipelines, energy and natural resources

    Some jurisdiction are trying EV police and fire vehicles. for front line work. I suspect they will be shuffled off to non-front line roles once the media stops noticing.

    Quebec sovereignty?

    Well, before that, the Catholic church ran Quebec (along with Duplessis for a while) and were quite happy to have their fiefdom supported by the collection plate.

    Defending Canadian Arctic Sovereignty

    Yet you use so many. What is the point of this post, other than our Saturday night history lesson? The pace of the Iditarod is a poor example. It's a brutal go, but teams benefit from pre-positioned food caches, bedding, vet care, etc. 5000 by snowmobile would need fuel and logistical...

    Trump Class Battleships?

    I got a kick out of the trump decal overlooking the flight deck. I'll bet he wants a hand designing the command suite. Lots of gold, maybe mirrors, and a big chair with a window. That's a cycle the US system has to break; an administration spending much of its time trying to prosecute its...

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    Your scenario ties the status of an MP to a tie to a particular party. As previously mentioned, political parties are not mentioned in the Constitution. What if the opposite were occur: for whatever reason, the party kicks the member out of caucus. Would they cease to be an MP, since they no...
