    Army Reserve Restructuring

    Some locations for bases leave something to be desired for many. One of the large selling points to hire more Reservists if presented the proper way to protentional members. I just learned something new. They use to just have job protection for Provincial Employees, Which many of the...

    Replacing the Subs

    The question I often ask in industry is how many repeat clients does a group have. Then break down the client types. Large, medium, small contracts. Then what the dollar value of those contracts. Finally how many many of those are repeat clients. A couple of large Canadian Companies have a...

    Replacing the Subs

    Ahh I guess your right, I might have to throw the towel in over a couple poorly.placed insults. One of largest issues we have is our decision makers being limited in what they know due to expierance they have. If all you have ever known is one thing, you were never exposed to other things. You...

    Replacing the Subs

    I hope you are not part of influencing any project currently or in the future. We have some very good companies with very experienced people in many aspects that could build subs. Especially if given pointers and lessons learned by the Main Contractor. The skills are there, selling our work...

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

    I would partly disagree with them being under educated. ( I would say many of our Officer Corps are well/over educated but untrained in the roles they are expected to work in) they lack depth of experience for the roles and responsibilities they are expected to fulfill along with try and grow...

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

    We had Pilots counting waves (every fifth wave they would pull up) as they flew across the straight below the weather so we could service their planes before the busy week. kind of a missed art, knowledge, total luck and stupidness all rolled up into one. I miss working with those pilots. A...

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    They often provide information leading up to the poll, along with leading questions for the poll itself. I guess the same way the cbc does. Add an opinion and then support it with your own truths and facts. Until called out on it and then ask for more money. It is Simple check your sources of...

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    Not a single one unless they are fact checked on their sources. I found multiple times where they had spread false information and refused to retract that Info. Ran their polls with that information to lean support for the liberals. They seemed to get a bit better after the information was...

    Bridges & Equipment of an Engineering Regiment

    So buy the Reserves equipment for disaster response along with being deployable. Buy the regular force equipment that is only deployable. (Can be the same equipment, just label one se disaster response and the other military property). Then stock pile a metric crap ton of the Reserve equipment...

    The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

    I honestly have to ask how does the US ANG make it happen in their timeline commitments? ( I know it is more then one weekend a month) Besides having a lot of resources. Your saying a 6 year commitment just to be able to fly Peace time NORAD in Canada? Does that mean the US break down the...

    The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

    What part is incorrect? Building on skill sets is not being incorrect. Simplifying maybe but not incorrect. If a reserve pilot plan does not work for use because of the lack of resources we have then maybe we need to add more resources. Simply put the system is broken, and needs to be fixed...

    The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

    I also wonder how the Pilots proficiency cross country flights will be effected with the F35 security requirements. No more going to smaller towns/ US destinations. Will Simulator time suffice?

    The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

    Keep doing things the way they are and hope for the best I guess. No way to create a Reserve Fighter pilot cadre from current commerical pilots. 1. They aren't in as good of physical shape as fighter pilots. 2. They don't have the mission planning training and or expierance. 3. They don't...

    The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

    Which is not very many hours until you couple the rest of the hours together. I know. We dont have the numbers because we do the same things over and over again. Things need to change direction or they won't get better. I differ on this as I seen first hand the boys club protect their own...
