Read as, reserves are an after thought still

Speaking just on the NSE/sustainment brigade. The div maintenance battalion would be a massive element that RCEME has not seen since ww2. On paper, 6 Coys, and a training platoon if fully staffed. Similar for the S&T battalion. They are massive organizations that if actually created, equipped...

exactly why 2 div would form the back bone, as it stands 2 div will have a significant regular force element once at full fruition, complete battle schools, admin coys etc, again this is all dependent on the plan actually being executed

I read somewhere the other day in the event of mobilization, 2 Div (defense of canada) would be split in 3, each around 8-10k, forming the core of the force, recruitment and training would then commence to fill it out to full strength. Which makes for a solid plan in theory for a west, central...

Perhaps but lets hope the talk is more then talk of the ARes being changed to "an army in reserve" rather then the current force it is. On paper it will be, but ill be waiting for the follow through.

Speaking of tariffs, some aluminum industry data

I suspect its the unwillingness of a large faction of the liberal party to admit the post cold war world of not needed major defense budgets is over. If you look historically, until 1963 we invested heavily in defense regardless of party. There then was a shift in both major parties and we saw...

No, i should of expended more but for core services there shluld be a cap. The have add on services. As well as government subsidies per number of seniors below the income threshold.

Because a court already stated it was an unconstitutional question, they are seeking an injunction to stop collection of any more signatures. April 9th is the hearing from what ive heard

Seems to be ignoring it, they announced a committee to study it but also didnt set a date to meet. Meanwhile rumor is the separatists are still 100k signatures short, and facing an injunction April 9th potentially.

What I would like is a cap of say 30-40% of a seniors income can be taken by these facilities unless they make over X amount. Covid showed just how bad seniors homes can be, we can, and should do better for one of the most vulnerable parts of society.

Well thats one confirmed UCP seperstist MLA

im really curious about that air defense bit, cause it aint the GBAD project, is this simulators of some kind or other training infrastructure for GBAD?

Confusion? Pretty clear he was defending a foreign government that has well documented evidence of child and forced labour

Agreed it needs to be refocused on to what its goal was, making sure we didnt have homeless, poor seniors. The entire situation of elder care needs reform, my grand mother in law lives at a home that takes about 80% of a seniors income as rent, after medications etc she has maybe $40 a month of...

This was candidates!

I remember going out to a biv during covid when we had 14 courses in field. I rilled uo and saw civi tents of all different colours "what the campers village fuck is this" i recall saying

CA level

Or we go classic and pull out the Lee Enfield for ceremonial drill
