Wasn't the retro already communicated? Figuring out some way to tax these companies for business being done in Canada (and everywhere else they're drawing revenue from) seems worthwhile.

Definitely reads that way. Vive la France!

Looks fairly permissive as far as nuclear-powered vessels.

Reference?

And there seems to be an allergy to setting up a friendly warlord, of late. Probably missing about ninety steps, but weren't there some possibles in Afghanistan?

Isn't it generally a done thing to be a bit shiftier about submarines? Keep everyone guessing where it/they are, how many, which one did what, and so on?

Complimented by an old RN style WO scheme (WFR, effectively) for deep technical experience billets?

Bearing the limited training area in mind, a return to the West Coast and some sort of cost- and time-sharing arrangement with CJCR would be interesting. Plenty of expenditures CJCR-side that provide less value than, basically, buying whatever Oriole time the Navy doesn't want.

What's the actual annual cost?

Could see an argument for that as an RCAF Reserve role.

Which is more than the Lower Mainland has now, and within, traffic allowing, day-training distance.

Buy back/transfer Chilliwack, for starters. Convince some nation in the Interior to sign some sort of lease or shared use agreement for acres, many for mountain warfare training. Buy outright a smaller but healthy footprint for a permanent presence. Powell River might be worth looking at...

Could Industry Canada get on making a physical iteration of it?

The Marine Corps ball is a remarkably couth approach, especially as an all-ranks thing. As for Army birthday parades: if some sort of "march out of the garrison with flags and band, route to conclude in local park with beer, beef, and hopefully adoring civilians" thing didn't evolve in...

Though IIRC there was a parade with tanks and so on post-GW1. Maybe as a routine thing it was seen as too like the Soviet Victory Day?

The lower-deck drum might be dealing with the actual anchor line, or with an endless messenger line seized to the anchor line.

From a purely "amble around Esquimalt and Comox" assessment, and an assumption that everywhere else is much the same: any significant increase in throughput needs to be led with enormous investment in quarters.

Absolutely an area-by-area thing: popup storefront operations in the summer wherever there's significant 17-25 traffic. Get the initial contact and potentially any "any room with a door" parts handled, and then off to the area's main CFRC for medical and anything else better done at a more...

Or insistence on due process, re: warrants, arresting officers being identifiable as such*, and so on, as applicable. *not even touching anonymity, just "is this person law enforcement or a mugger?"

This. An immigration-status crackdown conducted by uniformed, unmasked feds using marked vehicles that saw everyone without authorization to be in the states punted back to their home country would be infinitely less riddled with abuses of people and process than this evolution. On top of the...
