    All Things AB Separatism (split fm Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???)

    Besides the investigative authority of the Election Commissioner, seems like at least one LE agency wants a piece of it. https://discoverairdrie.com/articles/rcmp-confirm-investigation-into-potential-misuse-of-alberta-voter-list

    All Things AB Separatism (split fm Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???)

    Since Forever Canada doesn't specify who they mean by "the separatists", accusations that it is illegal might be premature. There are probably "separatists" sitting in the legislature; it's more than likely that there are some in the hierarchy of constituency associations but there are rules...

    British Military Current Events

    Annexation of Hawaii, 1898 One of the immediate reasons for annexing Hawaii in 1898 was to use it as a base from which to conduct naval and military operations against the Spanish (and others) in the Pacific (i.e. the Philippines). US presidents trying to repeat history. Tariffs and using...

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    Lots of things are "perfectly legal" but still questionable. There are some (many?) who would consider "sugar babying" morally ambiguous; some suggesting it is more similar to prostitution than "dating". Even if the "compensation" aspects of the relationship were mutually agreed, the claims of...

    Updated Army Service Dress project

    Even if more were needed to win the war, the quantity was limited to the individual services requirement. Navy - none; Army - one; Air Force - two.

    Alberta government thread

    If you don't like how an independent commission draws the electoral map, you just change the rules. Alberta wants to set aside commission report, strike MLA committee to look at 91-seat legislature https://edmontonjournal.com/news/local-news/alberta-new-electoral-map-launch-mlas I tried to...

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

    If you look at the current membership of commons committees, you may notice that the chairmanship of the majority of committees (especially the ones that matter) already follows normal commons practice, in that the chair is from the government party. I doubt there will be much, if any change...

    After swinging to ~ 900 vote lead, now settled back to just over 400 around 260. It's gonna be a long night.

    Colonel Edward Campbell

    A loss to the country, the military and this site. The collective IQ lamp dimmed. From googling Ted, I was reminded of his (semi-anonymous?) contribution as part of the "Ruxted Group" which to a great extent was responsible for the good reputation that this site enjoyed.

    All Things AB Separatism (split fm Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???)

    My expectation is that Alberta separatists (overt and covert) will not "frig off" even if the result is a 'no'. The current UCP government has become very obvious about putting their thumb on the scales. With even modest support for separation Smith will continue to make it easier for what was...

    RCAF Col Jeremey Hansen to orbit the moon in 2024

    I enjoyed the comment from mission control: “Happy to report that toilet is go for use. We do recommend letting the system get to operating speed before donating fluid, and then letting it run a little bit after donation.”

    RCAF Col Jeremey Hansen to orbit the moon in 2024

    Good explanation. So, Col Hanson gets to go round and round the moon because Canadians specialized in a particular arm and hand function. There were probably adolescents dreaming of being engineers who years and years ago conceived of . . .
