Its more important symbolically anyways. It gets harder for the USSC to push the decision on this. It gives our cause legitimacy.

The vote to remove Canadian tariffs passed the House btw.

Since we're talking dream Senates I keep the unelected aspect but legitimize it by devolving the selection of Senators to unanimous consent by their provincial legislative assemblies. A list of names are forwarded based on merit, good standing in the community, etc and all politicians must...

Minorities? Perfection.

The fact that a party blue or red can get a third of the vote share and next to no seats shows why we need PR asap. MMPR imo.

It is not illegal to enter a country unauthorized for the purposes of seeking asylum per the Refugee Convention of 1951. The USA is a party to the 1967 protocol.

Chatgpt cant replace critical thinking. An iota of that would tell you Alberta separating would be a disaster for the LPC as it would be a disaster for Canada writ-large. Are some of you truly so partisan you think the feds would welcome separatism to "own the cons"? Are we really debasing...

In the west, Shilo, Wainwright, Suffield. Dundurn is too small and the Chilcotin has no base, just an RTA.

Idiocracy is more and more a documentary

It most certainly would - so it wont happen

They learned how to devastate their economy to a degree that it still hasnt recovered? Lots of the business headquarters are in Calgary/Toronto and not Montreal anymore for a reason.

Well the homer in me is gonna hope Shilo so we have an armoured unit to play with haha. Maybe theyll even take the laid up guidon in the Manitoba Legislature.

I always like to imagine what your constructs look like and on paper they seem legit - my question is what do you see the infrastructure needs looking like? Using extant armouries? Building modern instead? The infrastructure costs alone would be in the billions for this I would think, nevermind...

Huh - I thought Suffield was the idea. Shilo is interesting. It was a tank base in the past and the terrain is a good analogue for the steepe. I thought Wainwright was at capacity for local demand and couldnt support upwards of a 1000+ people.

Rumour has it they may be reactivated somewhere else. The some of the units have geographic elements in their name (Manitoba Horse, 1 FGH) or have active active Reserve units (1/8CH, 1 FGH)

The only heavy armoured unit is the LdSH

"Armoured bde" and a "light bde"? 😂😂 In all seriousness is there any more information on reforms in the reserves? I havent seen much of anythinh.

The Chinese do not have the force projection capability to unilaterally level every military installation on the coast. To do so theyd need to project a massive force through the JMSDF, USN and RCN unmolested as well as keeping the RCAF and USAF on the ground once they approach North America...

K2 is a perfect fit imo on the tank side. Lighter and logistically less burdensome than Abrams and far more available than new Leo hulls.

Why? Why demoralize the Reserves even further without tangible benefit? There's no kit, no institutional support, limited training budgets, crumbling infrastructure, a lack of communications equipment, poor quality personal kit and few plans for actually addressing this for the next decade but...
