    High Speed Train Coming?-split from boosting Canada’s military spending"

    There aren't really any good reasons the kinds of deals extended to indigenous communities should not be extended to all communities, so that all may benefit equally.

    Medium Cavalry: Critical Capability or Poor Man’s MBT?

    Third guy: "All your base are belong to us."

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

    An "expert" would know how much was due to monopoly pricing, and how much was due to removal of subsidies (unless the privatized operations are still subsidized). Two simple numbers. Why are experts and/or reporters so shy about producing them?

    The property owners can make a profit, but not the people operating a business on the property. What an odd country we have.

    High Speed Train Coming?-split from boosting Canada’s military spending"

    Well, there's a quick way to slow land acquisition down. Find some pre-Columbian human remains and arrange for them to be "discovered" on the land.

    Political impacts of Ukraine war

    Not really. I wrote about quality of your response (the idea). You essentially called me "pathologically partisan" (personal).

    Political impacts of Ukraine war

    Sure, that's a well-reasoned critical response. I bow to your quantified and wise objections.

    Political impacts of Ukraine war

    I'd pick Israel over France. There aren't really any purely "good guys", just "better guys".

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

    Yes, but then you'd have top men in the discussions. Top. Men.

    Canada seeks to buy Long Range Precision Rockets (probably US MLRS or HIMARS)

    I suppose, if everything a HIMARS can launch can also be launched by an aircraft likely to be available.

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

    Welcome to the new Canadian government-military-industrial complex.

    Iran Super Thread- Merged

    Yet he invited anyone who cared to do so. Too much taking-counsel-of-fears of everything from military defeat to mere humiliation is paralyzing non-US countries.

    Iran Super Thread- Merged

    Was Canada even invited to participate in all of those? We can't claim "didn't follow" if following was never an option.

    Informing the Army’s Future Structure - CAMO Discussion

    Nah. Condemned Carl G tubes. And unlike the artillery who shout "bang" in unison, the AD team shouts "whoosh".

    Forget the very recent number. Go to the link I provided and look at the past 15 years. That is the problem.

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

    Because Canada has a serious problem with people with high potential emigrating to the US. Right now BC is working to attract health workers from the US. It's a fact that health workers in the US (as with most workers in the US) have higher incomes and can consume at higher levels. For now...

    Very few single measures do. Put them all together, though, and a trend is obvious. Not failing, but faltering. The US is in a breakaway by itself, and Canada is still part of the chase group. It's unlikely that we can join the breakaway, but we could certainly fall out of the chase group if...

    Iran Super Thread- Merged

    Why "at risk"? A few countries selling and buying oil in alternative currencies isn't going to unseat the stability of the USD ("full faith and credit"), nor its widespread usage in countries with unstable currencies. About half of USD extant is thought to be circulating outside the US. A...
