    Didn't see the article. Is the idea I.E. the the PS in Ottawa will be compulsory enrolled in the Supplementary Reserve? Thus when there is a flood all the PS of certain classifications (Clks) are called out to fill sandbags and the government grinds to a halt (maybe a good thing).

    Army Reserve Restructuring

    That is where you are going to have a problem getting people to sign up. i.e. look at our history wrt conscription. Additionally, a lot of those targeted folks may be in a relationship with dependants. I can just hear she who must be obeyed saying no fricken way. Anyway, it's just a Liberal...

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    Carney doesn’t need to find 3 votes, he simply needs 3 MP’s on the other side to be out ‘sick’ or whatever. It’s that simple. MP's DO NOT have to be in Parliament to vote. They can vote remotely via a remote voting app since Mar 2021. It is possible, I guess to be too sick to vote.

    This will never end. The FN will continue to demand "their" land back, more money. I think the FN were nomadic and moved around to hunt and fish so they think wherever they fished etc, buried a relative, it is their land. Where would they be today if the colonizer never arrived?
