Seems a bit wobbly at the upper end. Wonder why the arm was chosen, instead of, perhaps, something with the tray running all the way up.

Isn't the "linked to the CCP" criteria a bit broad? Thought Party membership was somewhat the done thing for the ambitious or connected, i.e., the sort of person who'd also be inclined to study abroad if it offered better outcomes than domestic ed.

Depending on the model, definitely. One (probably) not needing a "United Nations of Canada" treaty could see the AFN acting as facilitator to bring together a per-consultation group of affected nations, and perhaps get a bunch of the intramural politicking addressed, before putting everyone...

This, especially within the arcs of their trade or field (e.g., a hypothetical green Tac Hel platoon formed of flying WOs and supporting pers, various species of shop, office, and cell, medical establishments, etc.). Hopefully the creation of this sort of WO would also come with CFR, CT, and...

I don't really care about mechanics, just "a decision." The process (committee of the whole, regional sub-assemblies, per-request groups; majority, consensus, supermajority, whatever), as far as an outside entity looking for indigenous input, matters far less than that the decision is accepted...

Putting questions to the AFN or equivalent organization would be an answer.

A barge/landing craft that's already in place could be taken over by naval reservists or (engineers? Loggies?) in the case of hostilities. Meanwhile, it's provided a decade or three of mobility for Ranger activities, DOMOPS, and what-have-you at points in the year when Desgagne isn't around...

One party is an immigrant gaoler, the other an elected federal rep. There should be no question of who defers to whom if there's a question of appropriate action.

Whatever is required to ensure that the representative is able to carry out their lawful duties: in this case entering, without warning or oversight, ICE facilities. That could be Congressional ID slid across the counter, an asp to the knee (or whatever), or the sort of force @Good2Golf...

The fact these goons felt they could play power games with elected representatives (almost entirely a political and appearance matter) rather than deferring and saying "sure, bring the mayor, whatever" matters more than the legal points. As in where/when/how one might transition to the other?

A bunch of those wouldn't be the worst thing for non-green settings: fill that step between "Gator" and "vast crew-cab."

That's where I'm coming from as far as "a nudge." Upgrade the local level to "bootlace," chin off a couple of decade-old layers of staff (Area and Zone; each area's got a Major, each Zone a Capt, with associated NCMs and Class A Area Elemental Advisors (also LCdr/Maj, and of late not even being...

7, and a major nudge needs to happen to see much increase in any sort of "doing stuff," regardless of the particular nature of "stuff."

I wonder what the precedent, written or otherwise, is as far as aides, pet experts, and other hangers-on when a rep or senator is poking around somewhere?

That looks awfully tall... How about this?

Especially: right off the bat. Wouldn't be terribly surprised if there's mandate letters, or some similar per-minister public tasking docs, come the fall, aligned with whatever's in the budget as a public communications exercise.

Could see an argument for a few federally-owned Pickups of the Sea LSTs, or something akin to the West Coast-standard coastal freighters with landing ramps. Not necessarily CAF (maybe CFAV, maybe CCG, maybe someone breaks out all the CCG roles into separate fleets, whatever) but available to...

No idea of US law, however the only errors committed were by ICE. While immediate recourse to lethal force might be overkill, Congress has right of access. This is absolute. If the Rep had turned up with a dozen goons and forced entry through beating up ICE agents, there would still only be...

How skid-prone is 70ish tons of tank on a steel plate?
