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

    I ve mentioned this before but at one time the Brits used to keep what they called the War Books. Basically a bunch of binders that covered the whole process of going to war. It was described an quite literally a How to book . It covered all the legal steps, the economic ones ,medical...

    Tumbler Ridge

    Yes , if only to find out how many are real people. I don't really care about the disaffected and the non violent loonies. What interests me are how many a foreign state players and bot farms ? Disinformation is dangerous and some of these people are a real threat. Correction not...

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    No , we or rather the PMO aren't that stupid . Donald Trump once again proving he is the biggest ,baddest spoiled 4 year old on the block. He's even incapable of winning gracefully. I now expect him to demand one of the Olympic gold medals....because no body deserves it more then him...

    Continental Defence Corvette

    I wonder what say 12 to 16 CB 90s along with a medium sized trawler as a mother ship would provide for coastal ops in this region

    Continental Defence Corvette

    Ideally that the best place at least in my opinion to hold a war is as far from your country as humanly possible if not farther. But as a way defending one's own soil if not having that choice I'm thinking defending as offensively as possible

    Continental Defence Corvette

    They have two things going for them . One they go really, really fast, they look absolutely bad ass just standing still. As recruiting tool for young people what's not to love . Besides Coastal Forces tend to attract young people with a slightly feral and buccaneering sort of...

    Well at least we now know what the going rate is . The real question is is there any sort of tax advantage to leasing a President as opposed to buying one ?

    CMMA - replacing the CP140 Aurora

    The way Canadian procurement works or so I was told. Is that a project office studies an issue and determines how many widgets, warships or tanks the military requires to do the job understand the bare minimum. And they cut a little more . It goes up the Department food chain and gets...

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    The Trump administration seems to be of the opinion that there's not much point in being in government if you can't hurt people.

    CMMA - replacing the CP140 Aurora

    It is the curse of Canadian Defence procurement . We tend to not only purchase less then absolute minimum but most often will cut those purchases to even smaller levels . It's small wonder that our operatiing costs tend to exceed those of our allies operatiing similar equipment.

    From what Ive been reading and hearing . It turns out that the device in question had been turned over the ....wait for it ! The Department of Homeland Security. Supposedly for testing and use against Mexican cartel drones ,which actually do exist and are a real threat (albeit minor at...
