What CSS and Engineer Units were amalgamated? Ultimately if the Military needs to stand down one unit and stand up another then so be it. I look at 15 Field Regiment and 5th BC Field Regiments. I know the 5th has gone from Regt to Bty back to Regt. I know the men and women serving had no...

The Regular Force should also then. That's a large problem for units on the West Coast or northern parts of the provinces. How about the we stand up a Air reserve with Helicopters and Hercs who can fly to local Airports, Pickup the units and deliver them to the training areas. You can male it...

They could install simulators in the Armories and base the actual K9s at the training centers. Hire the Techs to maintain them there. On a long stretch you could outsource most of the maintenance to local Civi companies. Ya someone is going to say they need security clearance and also know how...

AI posting is getting down right criminal. Needs to be addressed sooner then latter.

They have large large oil and gas reserves they are not developing. They are "profiting" off the backs of others in the country by not charging a proper price for their services. I think the latest figures are $60billion in debt. With an aging infrastructure. Crown corps are good but when they...

Alberta does sell lots of refined product to consumers. They also sell Heavy crude that has been upgraded to sell to market. The difference is one form of resource gets taxed heavily the other does not. Do not forget the cheap electricity Quebec buys from Newfoundland and sells for a nice...

How does it work for Quebec hydro then? The program seems similar to a tax shelter, but I guess a easy way would be for Alberta to add all oil and gas production under a crown corporation, then taxation would be different then it is now.

Does the The F35 not have the capability to transmit on Link 16, but they loose their stealth? There are solutions and workarounds. The question is do we want to integrate them into any Airborne Electronic aircraft? Does the US want to sell us platforms such as their Freedom 550 radio for...

Except Trudeau said there was no case for Canadian Natural Gas to be sold to Europe. He canned a large NG port project. We will see how the liberals deal with this case going forward.

I am actually a bit more concerned then I was 6 months ago, people who I know that were left leaning are getting behind this movement a little more and more every day. Not a good situation in my opinion. I have been saying lets fix the issues and concerns before stupid actions cause bad damage...

Not if you start to look at person hours over life cycles of a project(s). Then if you look at the overall trade deal that could be coming with them. Oil and gas, mining, manufacturing, smelting plants green energy products such as battery plants. The manufacturing of the infrastructure...

No less them a tandem 46k rear end set up but I would go with the 50k set up. Then you can haul almost any military required load cross country. I would go with the heavy planetary set up for tank hauler and heavy wreckers along with the specialty trucks requiring heavy off road hauling. I...

Buying trucks isnt the problem, nor is upfitting them or transferring equipment over. The issue is they want direct benefits to the few to many hands in the pot in between. I would love to see the Cdn Military operating C500 KWs across the board. The series of trucks are so versatile in their...

How many km and hours are on them? What shape are they actually in? Ya they should be doing low rate purchasing to sustain all the fleets

I think there is much more then building a few subs and armored vehicles in the works with South Korea at play here. They want a safe secure partner moving forward for energy supply both conventional and Nuclear. They want safe and secure access to minerals we have, they want our tech sectors...

That is very interesting statement. QC is required at different levels and standards.. we have many people in this country who are skilled in welding exotic metals in pressure vessel situations. I have to ask when they make repairs to the pressure hulls of our current and past subs who made...

Part III of the NDA might disagree

Taken in to context the NES policy, along with when a member of the Reserves is subject to the CSD how would one expect to get an actual conviction under the sections you have stated? How do you interpret NDA 33(3)? Add to that the previous cancellations where the Military has cancelled...

There are a few rules province to province on how this works. I would Say if the Reservist responds by phone within a hour they have met the requirements of a fan out. expecting a Reservist to leave their place of work and or school for a call out would put their standing in question...

I wonder if much of the AI hesitation here is the fact that skill fade happens very quickly and our industries do not want to loose the physical/mental experience we already have. Our Military has been fighting this for decades. Artillery is one example where high tech is good until it isn't...
