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

    https://macdonaldlaurier.ca/government-subsidies-for-canadas-media-were-supposed-to-be-temporary-but-they-keep-on-growing-and-could-be-here-to-stay-dave-snow-in-the-hub/ I take it back, I would start with our government's various media subsidies first...

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

    I know I've had a fair share of jobs before I settled down - and heck I can't even say "I've settled down" confidently I would take a good hard look at what we spend on foreign aid, and start there (but that's just me) I'm sure there are some good foreign aid programs that actually do help the...

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

    https://www.ctvnews.ca/business/article/walking-a-fine-line-economists-caution-canada-on-commitment-to-defence-sector/ I'm not sure where the funding is going to come from either... Hitting 2% took us forever. Now we have a shrinking economy with massive layoffs happening across all...

    2025 U.S. - Venezuela conflict

    I know the US wouldn't put their forces at risk the same way the British did during the Falklands (not a criticism of the British, they used what they had available at the time) And MEU's certainly deserve proper air cover But a CSG to the region just seems so "overkill" given Venezuela's...

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    I don't know... If drug cartels are now being labelled as terror organizations - and if those boats are indeed carrying drugs, proceeds from drugs, or cartel members - could they not make for legitimate military targets? (Kinda think of them as Taliban but with speedboats instead of...

    Chinese Military,Political and Social Superthread

    https://defence-blog.com/china-shows-armed-z-20t-helicopter-in-action/?amp Boy I would hate to be a MANPAD operator if war in the South Pacific ever kicks off. Aircraft identification (at low level anyway) would be tricky as hell... Squinting through the sight system, asking myself "Is that...

    Ostrich Cull in BC, 2025

    Wow I'll leave it to one of our local law enforcement types to maybe expand a bit on what's being presented here & help put it into context - but on the surface, I'm trying not to be infuriated

    Canadian Foreign Interference (General)

    And people still call us 'conspiracy theorists' and roll their eyes whenever one suggests a narrative outside of the mainstream... Will the conspiracy theorists finally be right when this giant embassy has it's opening ceremony? Up until that point are the people who suggest the PM is...

    Global decrease in population

    The sad part of this whole thing is that this was entirely preventable. It is the policies (and quite frankly, the subversion) of modern governments the world over that is causing a cost of living crisis, and a pending unemployment crisis, and a 'social satisfaction' crisis for many...all of...

    2026 NDP Leadership Race & Pick

    As much as I would never vote for the NDP, either federally or provincially (as things stand now - open to changing my mind in the future) I think Tom would actually do the Liberal party a world of good.

    Global decrease in population

    Mr. Campbell, may I be so bold as to kind of put you on the spot...?? Your post here has me wanting to ask you something I try to work into most conversations I have when chatting with senior citizens... Looking back on your life, what "life advice" would you give to the younger generations to...

    Global decrease in population

    So I'll admit it - no. I don't think I quite grasp the dull depth or scale of how getting a lead on AI will give a person, corporation, or country a distinct advantage. (If I'm being totally honest) AI will be a huge advantage for companies & corporations vs their competitors, absolutely...

    Canada Post Woes (merged)

    At this rate there won't be anybody paying it - the province will go bankrupt in no time... Between spending all this money they don't have + immediately shooting down ANY projects that would actually generate revenue, BC is screwed. Eby = worst premier BC could have asked for. (And I'm...

    Freedom Convoy protests [Split from All things 2019-nCoV]

    Couldn't agree more. Tamara Lynch & Chris Barber were used as political pawns in a legal system that doesn't seem to mind being weaponized by the government from time to time... And to be fair the system works for the other parties also, and often seems to agree with lawsuits filed against...

    Police Folk Allegedly Behaving Badly

    I don't know... The last several FBI Directors have ended up being less than impressive, and have been sucked into the partisan political nonsense regardless of which party has been in power. The FBI does some great work, and I imagine most of their rank & file are competent and good...
