Your comments are noted. We are worrying too much, perhaps, on keeping our current members of the NSS occupied. As things stand, that really shouldn't be a problem nor does it require bringing another shipyard into the group although we do need that other yard. Consider, if we tell Irving to...

Are they talking in the liquified state? Every thing I read has output in the cubic meters not in barrels> That would seem to be about one large tanker per day. Does Keyera own that level of delivery at the harbour or does this mean another loading facility will be built somewhere?

If we wanted to show we were serious we would have ordered them months ago. The navy knows which one is best-suited for our needs but Ottawa has demonstrated that they are more interested in the best deal than the best sub although we could end up with both. We need at least 2 more support...

Have you ever set a dried out Christmas tree on fire? Flares up real fast, burns hot for about two minutes and then fades to nothing. Well meet the government of Canada. The only reason we bought tanks was to keep our seat at the table. The only reason we are at 2% is because the pressure...

sad but true

at this stage, she needs people to recognize her name. This is one way to do it although pit bulls are seldom given a leadership roll.

With the exception of Saturday Night Football what would we actually lose that we couldn't substitute from someplace else other than China.

True but they have more ports above Lake Ontario than we have on Lake Superior and it wouldn't be impossible, I hope, to revitalize the North of Superior rail line to bypass the locks entirely and ship out of Sault.

I wonder how much patience Ukraine has. The US under Trump have proven to be liars, thieves and almost enemies. It must be hard not to say enough is enough

far fetched maybe but start by simply saying no without the fancy political bafflegab. Use some of those hundreds of thousands of civil servants to assist stricken industries to identify other markets. Remove the industrial roadblocks such as the entire carbon capture conditions on acceptance...

crap, don't you know anything. That will require at least a full day in the class before the 2 hours on a simulator. Boy are you dumb.

Iran seems to have a solution that doesn't require bending a knee. Perhaps we should take lessons in intestinal fortitude

since the entire advantage to a sub is its ability to disappear it is time to put the fleet to sea or perhaps a useful exercise for the CP140s

Love the way you think. And why not a free chance to check out the merchandise. If you can't find it that goes a long way towards vindicating the money being spent.

guessing but the notion that we might shop elsewhere rather than in Washington for our defense procurements could be a major factor.

your reply suggests that my first scenario is the more likely. As Altair suggested, with Trump having spent the last year or more dumping on every single one of his allies whilst backing Xi and Putin what government in their right mind would go to their aid. I suspect if 9/11 happened today...

either Trump has to capitulate or, failing that, the rest of the world has to gang up on Iran. At the moment it is anyone's guess.

so in your mind, what will be the Chinese version of bread and circuses? Will they use a flat out war? Their current policy of building islands probably doesn't truly register with the general population so Xi will need something that creates drama and patriotism.

and next week another should make the trip and then another and... Maybe there might be a liberal with morals
