I think FPV drones, etc. are the right weapon for the extremely dispersed Ukrainian battlefield. When you might only have a dozen frontline troops covering a KM of front then SUAVs allow you to have lots of inexpensive eyes all over the front to find and engage those isolated targets. They...
Remember those reports from a while back about thousands of Chinese fishing boats travelling in formation?

What if you deploy those 2,000 fishing boats as a physical shield around your invasion fleet and even equip some of them with...
There is absolutely no doubt that Justin Trudeau was an absolute disaster for the Canadian economy, but the Conservatives really need to pivot their messaging from the past to the present if they want to be seen as a good alternative to the Carney Liberals.

Interesting part of the quote to me was "Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz". I'm not sure that's a flex they want to make about an International Strait.
I wonder how they'd feel if for example Singapore declared that they "control the Strait of Malacca"?
So what part of the video did you find most insightful? The childish editing to make it look like the interviewer was stuttering? The commentator making jokes about Rosemary Barton's weight? Her "$10,000 per month grocery bill"? The East Asian Conservative MP not having a "normal Canadian...
I guess my position would be somewhere between the two of yours. I 100% agree that boots on the ground fighting side-by-side with your allies is the ultimate expression of shared sacrifice. That's why I totally support the Canadian Brigade in Latvia. It puts our "flag on the map" as you say...
