The amount is like Goldilocks porridge - not to hot and not to cold - an amount that won't necessarily set people off initially but just enough to show that something potentially serious is happening.

The main issue is that the 'services' industry in Canada is overwhelming geared towards the 'consumer oriented model', whereas in a place like Germany, the service industry is focused on high-skill technical services and logistics. Which do you think pays more? Which do you think adds 'more...

Because we add minimum to no value in any of these goods. No intellectual value. We let others add that value. We have an 18th century mindset in terms of these industries, not a 21st. It’s great thing to have these resources available but it’s a terrible travesty that we don’t refine them into...

I’m old enough to remember hearing Michael Wilson deliver a speech on the H of C talking about Canada being a ‘drawer of water and hewer of wood.’ I was sad when I heard us described in that manner and 40 years later I’m still sad that it applies to us.

Oil and Gold is not what we should be relying on.

The 5 bill 110k each, on average, not the available 206k.

I agree. Unless we choose the German subs…

With the next G7 being held in France on 15-17 June and SK being on the invite list of attendees, does anything want to venture a guess if our decision on the submarines will be made, before the G7 meeting, during the G7 meeting or after the G7 meeting? https://archive.ph/eRZhi The contest is...

Chris Hadfield - that's my bet.

Is there a no alcohol 24hrs before handling ammo in place as well?

If Russia made a play for Estonia and failed to take all of its northern coastline, they will have effectively landlocked their ports in St Petersburg. The Estonians would do their utmost to sink every Russian ship attempting to run along their coastline.

It’s the exact same concept of having oil/gas holdings in your RSP/TSFA. The money you make off those investments offsets the increase in money you pay to fill up your vehicle or heat your house.

I proposed a pipeline to the Cornwall area and then ships through the St Lawrence to the world.

I’ve not no issues with that. All options to get more oil to the coasts and willing buyers at world prices.

So on 1 hand they are importing from us 4+m bpd of our oil - at below market prices - on the other hand this is occuring. U.S. crude oil exports surge to record as tankers flock to Gulf Coast during Iran war U.S. crude oil exports surged to a record 5.2 million barrels per day in April...

I would think that the US will need those ships assigned to Iran to rotate back home. I doubt that the majority of them will be able to take on another assignment directly after this.
