Hopefully they have an increased budget to have mobile mechincs called, have their credit card in file at the local heavy equipment parts supplier and third party food and other supplies delivered. 🤣

I don't know many if any Heavy duty Mechanics in may area who make less than $120,000 a year most are in the $150 plus a year. It is funny reading some of the responses where people think Military ground equipment is some specialized trade that needs extra time to become effective to maintain...

Mapquest still works pretty good for pictures of the said areas.

The Consultation was originally done and final phases, Waiting on approval. When the Feds, Provincial and Municipal Governments kept adding to the list of requirements then things fell apart. Then the government swooped in to save the day and voila things were approved that previously were...

Private projects should not become public infrastructure. That is what we would call socialism.

:unsure: And environmental roadblocks, BC government added requirements along with the Federal government added more requirements. Don't forget the City of Burnaby's permits. Magically all got approved or set aside after the fact. They actually did things properly. Were in the final stages of...

Understanding during some of the most recent air operations the US was using Communication relay planes to communicate from F35s to other aircraft aka bomb trucks. No different then what C&C aircraft are designed to do. There was never a plan for the F35 to communicate with every aircraft...

What are you talking about? Building a pipeline to ship oil is a good investment. Because companies have a product that needs to be shipped to a client. How to do that efficiently is through pipelines. What is not efficient is dealing with Canadian bureaucracy. The on again off again process...

What other minor and major factors are contributing to those slowing business plans? Were they slowing prior to all the separation talk or started after? Calgary has had a rough go since 2009/2010 with Oil collapse but has made enormous strides in the Tech industry.

I have not seen anything in regards to talk of separation causing issues with investment. In fact it is a bit of the opposite. What I keep hearing over and over again is uncertainty of what the carbon pricing program is going to cost along with other federal and provincial hoops one must jump...

What's better?

But they have Colt Canada. What more do they need?:unsure::ROFLMAO:

Building anything in Canada is not the problem, we have the skills, we have the resources but we do not have the shear will to do so for many military products. It comes down to how the Government conducts business and a few larger contractors conduct their business. You go to a equipment...

That is why some Canadian Tech Companies have remained as a contractor and not a subsidiary of the US giant machine (even though their main business is the US). In reality the US is a large part of Defense around the world. Buying into or up most of all the minors and majors. They often cant...

Canada provides a niche market of sensor fusion and electronic systems. It is not talked about much, but it is a valuable aspect of tech that is required for the systems to all work together. This little box to talk to that little box that makes the woo-way thing spin. Some of the issues with...

My understanding is they have the pipeline route approved here by the previous owners, but are still waiting on Canadian environmental/ carbon tax offset approval along with final land negotiations. Like the Transmountain Pipeline until it is in ground ready to pump oil anything can change. I...

Until the Canadian connectors are built we will see.

Unless Southbow have been granted final approval in the past 22 days their news release on May 29,2026 says otherwise. But mae you know something their. The Federal emissions is a major issue in approval of some current and future projects. MOU may have been signed but final approvals require...

Is Irving still doing the work so many months then a lay off/ job contract change to avoid paying benefits to their trades people? I would be scared also if actual competition was going to open up shop in my neighborhood that did not need massive handouts every couple of years because we cant...

Maybe look up Southbow, CNRL, and any large oilfield projects and where they sit for approvals. Your hatred for Alberta poltics and the Provincial Government clouds your ability to look past your opinions.
