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

has he responded to Iran's idea of taxiing the cables?

but not every road. There will be, of necessity, a lot of driving around. The 401 gives a good demonstration of what that will entail. About every 8 to 10 miles

I can appreciate that. But those classes don't yet exist and the first one arriving is kind of late to be training. At that point your training should be more of a familiarization cruise. Your crew should already know their tasks and the levers to pull it should be more a matter of finding...

you seem up on things there, are there any signs that they are working on the other ice breakers needed? They should be entirely built in Canada.

leaving out the subs for a minute, with even 12 each of the destroyers and corvettes we will need close to 400 crew members. That is a lot of 5 or 10 trainees per small ship to get through and we don't really have the ships for those larger patrol vessel assignments yet. Acquisition and...

With the increase in personnel required wouldn't you be better off replacing the Orca with a training vessel? The air force has a training aircraft for every phase of flight training and every type of operational equipment would be nice if the navy could get something other than the Oriole

Here is a clipping from their promo add that you attached. If they can't spell Machinery correctly I have no faith that they can get everything else right and do we really need a high speed boat capable of outrunning and outgunning smugglers or a ship that can fill in for the Destroyers on less...

but I couldn't find it anywhere on CBC news. Both Global and CTV carried it a bit but not our national network

if you are looking for historical tunnels how about Brockville?

so now they have to actually state to what extent they are going to do just that. I will buy that but not a sometime in the future promise to do something. I have bought too many used cars on those types of promises to believe them

and gee whiz all those pesky peasants living there who might otherwise be able to take the train except having a stop midway would ruin the timing for a two hour run. Must keep it for the elites in the big cities (sarcasm)

Well stated. A number of the chiefs of intelligence in Europe are forecasting war within this decade. China is anticipated to go after Taiwan within 5 years. Every planned delivery is for after the war? is underway. What can we start building next year for delivery in less than 5 years that...

and nothing in Quebec. Our 3rd member of the team that is accepting beaucoup de dollars doesn't seem to be giving us much in return. Granted it took the other two a couple of years to start producing but one would hope that by now there would be at least one block under construction in Sorel.

From your Google search: We’re building nearly 1,000 km of electrified rail spanning two provinces, and, importantly, ancestral territories and Treaty lands. Our trains will move at speeds of 300 km/h or more, providing environmentally sound, fast, and reliable service to millions of riders...
