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

    It's the underlying infrastructure that's key - together with intelligent land use planning. Unfortunately, water, sewers and electricity aren't sexy, so they're easily ignored or done on the cheap. The City of Ottawa, for example, was amalgamated, and at least one former suburb (Nepean) was...

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

    The current apportionment of senators needs to be addressed, though. Four senators for Anne of Green Gables is a historical abomination.

    Some know him as the star of Corvette Summer. Some know the deep cut that he was originally cast as the oldest son in Eight is Enough (before quitting to do a movie instead). Some recall his minor involvement with the Star Wars franchise. And still others know him as the voice actor behind...

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    You know, Transport Canada could really use an injection of federal funding. Lots of aging federally regulated infrastructure; some of it might even have to be closed for major refurbishment to ensure safety. Like, oh, major bridges. I'd imagine that a bridge closing in on 100 years old might...

    Army Reserve Restructuring

    Divisions should not be planning their own permanent infrastructure, their own TO&E, their own doctrine. On the other hand, doctrine cells should not be twenty year sinecures for officers not to be trusted with troops who refuse to let the real world intrude and protect that fourth line company.

    I was assured CMP has a magic closet filled with Majors, and they just have to sprinkle magic occupation dust on them. I have also heard of project Senior Review Boards where the CMP rep pointed out that personnel are a long lead item, so if you want a major tomorrow, they had to be recruited...

    Giving PEI two senators would be a 50% reduction. And since no province can have fewer seats in the HoC than the Senate, it would also cut their HoC representation in half. TL;DR don't threaten me with a good time.

    The Canadian Senate is apparently the Class A Army Reserve of the government: a job where you only show up if you feel like it, and the potential sanctions are minunal and rarely enforced. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/senate-missed-votes-9.7264884

    RCAF fleet growth needs to have parallel FACT growth. More platforms without the capacity to train sufficient pilots will be a fail.

    So a question: Algeria was eliminated. But, hypothetically speaking, if they had gone on in the tournament and beat France, would French paras have then been obliged to overthrow the French government?
