    Pipelines, energy and natural resources

    Commercial or residential? I know AI data centers consume large amounts of cooling and consume large amounts of electricity. I wonder if the population increase has been accounted in those exact numbers. Many newer HVAC systems are very efficient. Not a chance Especially when someone else pays...

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

    LCOL = Low Cost of Living Canadian abbreviation for Lieutenant-Colonel is LCol or Lt.-Col depending on who is writing it. Unless there is an update to the abbreviations listing. So promote the ones who have the experience quickly. As in tomorrow, if the person in charge does not know...

    Pipelines, energy and natural resources

    Did you read my actual post or did you see the name and write? I did not say that did I? Currently yes. But usage may go down or it might increase. As we have seen here in Canada Electric Bus fleets have not fared that well. Break that down even further and it should make one ask how can we...

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

    Why is it that only LCol and above have operational experience in those roles? The reason for it simply put is if the people doing the job (except a handful) does not know the capability, then how do you expect all the others in the Combined armed battle to understand. Was there not discussion...

    Except the Oil ( specifically oil sands), Natural gas along with that coal they import from Canada is using not only for fuel in ICE vehicles but also a major ingredient used in making the plastics and exotic metals/polymers they use to manufacture their Electric cars. Oil, Natural gas and...

    New Canadian Shipbuilding Strategy

    How can a Civilian company ship cars, trucks, Tractor Trailers and heavy equipment over seas every other day (once a week)? Yet here we are unable to ship our equipment, Funny how the past failures and lack of forethought fails us to this day. Canada should build a few RORO ships under Federal...

    Army Reserve Restructuring

    Some locations for bases leave something to be desired for many. One of the large selling points to hire more Reservists if presented the proper way to protentional members. I just learned something new. They use to just have job protection for Provincial Employees, Which many of the...

    Replacing the Subs

    The question I often ask in industry is how many repeat clients does a group have. Then break down the client types. Large, medium, small contracts. Then what the dollar value of those contracts. Finally how many many of those are repeat clients. A couple of large Canadian Companies have a...

    Replacing the Subs

    Ahh I guess your right, I might have to throw the towel in over a couple poorly.placed insults. One of largest issues we have is our decision makers being limited in what they know due to expierance they have. If all you have ever known is one thing, you were never exposed to other things. You...

    Replacing the Subs

    I hope you are not part of influencing any project currently or in the future. We have some very good companies with very experienced people in many aspects that could build subs. Especially if given pointers and lessons learned by the Main Contractor. The skills are there, selling our work...

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

    I would partly disagree with them being under educated. ( I would say many of our Officer Corps are well/over educated but untrained in the roles they are expected to work in) they lack depth of experience for the roles and responsibilities they are expected to fulfill along with try and grow...

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

    We had Pilots counting waves (every fifth wave they would pull up) as they flew across the straight below the weather so we could service their planes before the busy week. kind of a missed art, knowledge, total luck and stupidness all rolled up into one. I miss working with those pilots. A...

    Liberal (Minority/Majority) Government 2025 - ???

    They often provide information leading up to the poll, along with leading questions for the poll itself. I guess the same way the cbc does. Add an opinion and then support it with your own truths and facts. Until called out on it and then ask for more money. It is Simple check your sources of...

    Liberal (Minority/Majority) Government 2025 - ???

    Not a single one unless they are fact checked on their sources. I found multiple times where they had spread false information and refused to retract that Info. Ran their polls with that information to lean support for the liberals. They seemed to get a bit better after the information was...
