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

    Quantity or quality? Anecdotally a lot of training failures on RQ Pte/DP1 because of the CFAT loss. Recruiting will also go up once the economy takes a crap, which is has and we're paying Privates $52K to $60K a year now.

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

    Also a great soundbite to distract from Carney refusing to acknowledge his new strategic partner is engaging in forced labour.

    We don't, we have a boat load of federal and provincial gas tax though.

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

    There's a huge group of folks opposed to the project. Lots of expropriated land is required. Construction isn't even supposed to start by the end of the decade. How much are tickets going to cost if the rail project needs $90B CAD before the overruns start???

    I had to move it here :confused:

    Informing the Army’s Future Structure - CAMO Discussion

    The reservist augmentation is valuable but is honestly only required because we have an insufficient regular force size for the tasks we've been given by the government. The 15 to 20% augmentation is mandated, not requested for expeditionary ops and I distinctly remember reservists being...

    Canadian modular assault rifle project, a C7 replacement?

    No one else follows STANAGs, why should we?

    Informing the Army’s Future Structure - CAMO Discussion

    Would you rather the PRes exist in a vacuum with no real task? They thumb their nose at being an augmentation force, didn't jump into the niche tasks (HUSAR, etc) and now you're thumbing your nose at Defense of Canada and DOMOPS? If 2 Div is only capable of DOMOPS then the PRes leadership (yes...

    Canadian modular assault rifle project, a C7 replacement?

    Absolutely. There's a giant venn diagram with the center point of "not blown up by FPV today" and that very much includes fieldcraft.

    Canadian modular assault rifle project, a C7 replacement?

    Trap/Skeet shooting come close to those numbers for target speed. We'd be wise to spend some time training folks to do that as a tool in the toolbox. Defeating a air threat needs layers and the shotgun falls under "oh fuck that's close" in the final layer. Immediately dismissing it means you're...

    No no, I meant the nursing homes sucked so we cap the fees they can collect.

    So your solution is to pay them less money to fix that problem?

    Its a combat uniform. Sleeves down. Doing office work? Maybe 3B is the dress you should be in.

    The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

    The same CNN that claimed the US OK'd the Pars gas field attack? If the F35 "is vulnerable" to a weakened Iranian AD network, an absolutely inferior by every measure of the word Gripen wouldn't have even been able to cross the border without massive losses.

    The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

    If you're inclined to believe Baghdad Bob's PR firm, sure.
