    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    I don't even know what to thread move those last posts to as they're so off topic that they don't even have a topic title that would fit.

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

    You know those investigations are like turbo classified and rarely result in named individuals charged, right?

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    How defense procurement lost its way. Dan Driscoll was on Shawn Ryan and this clip covers the "$2000 M777 part" that's grounding their fleet until 2027. There are some key lessons that will impact our rush to 2% GDP and beyond a lot more due to our smaller purchases: Peace dividend forced...

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

    I did live through the last 10 years of the Trudeau government, so I've heard plenty of them made into government policy.

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

    That response would be something I'd be expect for the hyper partisan right, and same hyper partisan left that decries the "bad timing" of Pollievre's scheduled social media posts. Both of those opinions should be discounted by the majority.

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

    2 days before a long weekend is absolutely last minute. It smacks of a knee jerk reaction to public pressure not a deliberate policy decision. They set this date when they made the badly needed relief months ago, this shouldn't have been a surprise or fuel (no oun intended) for the opposition.

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

    They've been making the same posts for months. Are you seriously trying to dig that deep to find fault with the Tories instead of focusing on the actual issue of Carney waiting until the absolute last minute to make this announcement? It was an easy win announcement to make after trade talks...

    3 RCR transfers to the Light Infantry Regiment

    That would also be assuming RCAF can muster enough serviceable aircraft to insert them.

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    I'm sure we did a lot of things better back in the day @FJAG (and I don't mean that sarcastically), but MRP is absolutely required with the current operational tempo. The entire Bde is gone 1 year of every 3. Some units are 1.5 years of every 3 because of the distribution of specialties. That...

    Infantry Vehicles

    Your inconvenience means we have to exponentially increase how many pers are assigned to transport tasks. There's a tipping point when a unit having organic assets sitting unused a majority of time means they are more efficient and effective being brigaded. We pay adults big bucks to do those...

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    We'll just do what we do for every other NTM in CA, make sure a bunch of random boxes are green on MonitorMass with giant gaps in the TO&E and then just shut down a Bde to panic waive requirements and deploy anyone who has a heartbeat. Proper high readiness involves isolating that unit/sub unit...

    3 RCR transfers to the Light Infantry Regiment

    Tracking its 3rd Canadian Light Infantry Regiment because we have to add Canada to everything like CANSOF adds Special Operations to every course they run.

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    If you had spent the 5 minutes to make this your original post, then you wouldn't have had to worry about violating the political forum rules which haven't changed in years. They are evenly applied across the political spectrum so no, you were not censored. - Milnet.ca Staff

    Logistic Vehicle Modernization Project - Replacing everything from LUVW to SHLVW

    What special features has Roshel put in for LSCO that JLTV doesnt have? We're buying an armoured box on wheels, not a tank. I'm certain Roshel will win because we have to buy domestic and they're an actual successful company without porkbarrelling but let's not be disingenuous here and make it...

    Logistic Vehicle Modernization Project - Replacing everything from LUVW to SHLVW

    That kind of iterative development is not how our procurement system is set up to fund. You'd spend years recompeting every design change to new bidders.

    Logistic Vehicle Modernization Project - Replacing everything from LUVW to SHLVW

    They're converted Ford trucks. We had to pay extra to remove the radios from the GWagons. I think we'll be fine with a few broken switches.

    Signal Operator vs Infantry: Trade Choice Advice

    You're on the right track with working on a fitness routine, diet and completing your Grade 12. Not having a high school diploma will hold you back in the CAF and it just adds something else to worry about while you're training or deploying. The Army is very routine based, so if you have the...

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    I don't think LIR is going to deploy as a standalone Regiment, at least not for decades. Like you said, not enough enablers. What it will do is take managing the GRTF tasks, which are markedly different from FG for the NATO Bde, and have a HQ manage that directly. Having 3 BNs is efficient as CA...
