Not this Ark?

FHKS around, finds out?

If Air Services is unable to support an op it’ll be zero FHKS given.

No one, especially Canada is going to go Iraqi Freedom against China.

Hyperbole aside, I’d be up for a little Government responsibility for doing something, anything of value, against China’s multi-faceted (including. *narcotics) assault against Canadian society.

It FHKS alright.

Man looking at that sexy beast makes me want to be a Chopper pilot now!

Is 1 Wg really Air Force though?

 

[Good2Golf]

As Air Force as 12, 14 and 19 Wg.

The role of the RCAF is to force generate pilots for 431.

Is it not CBSA job to detain,escort people out of the country?
The few I have dealt with that's how it was done.

After due process, yes; but not directly on the side of a border road. Deportation is a process (with appeals) and the SCOC has ruled that that Charter applies to all on Canadian soil. My preference would be for that not to be so, but here we are.

There is also the problem of what if the receiving state refuses to accept the deportee. They then must be returned to Canada. This isn't a Tom Hanks movie.

If you’re going to go historical, 14 and 19 Wgs would be Air Force since they’re modelled under the RAF construct (where Maritime Patrol is an RAF thing) rather than the US construct (where Maritime Patrol is a USN thing).

Le Canada a acheté des drones inutilisables à la frontière

Selon nos sources, la Gendarmerie royale du Canada s’est trop précipitée pour satisfaire Donald Trump, qui sera investi président des États-Unis le 20 janvier.

Whoops.

Jesus Christ, did the procurement folks at the RCMP even bother to Google the company? Or is this another case of national security being trumped by lowest cost?

AFAIK the RCMP falls under similar procurement rules as us.

the problem with the SCOC is that common sense is sometimes lacking.

That’s the thing though - my lay understanding is that there’s common sense, then there’s law which (in the Common law sense) is based on precedent. The two aren’t necessarily the same.

Slightly different example: At work, sometimes I send things to our JAG office for review. If it’s correct, the response is “no legal objection”. Now, perhaps there are other objections they would want to put in, but legally it’s fine.

Understood and thank you for that. Still when a person violates children sexually multiple times and courts refuse to toss his ass in jail forever...

I can’t find an English version of that article- but I assume it’s the China aspect. These drones are reallocated to the border- we own them already. We re in the midst of identifying alternative companies as we re looking at not using this company anymore.

The purchases were made because we required thermal capability immediately for wildfires and search and rescue. They ve been retasked.

DJI is not a “good” company to use whenever we re discussing this stuff. They are good to deal with but there’s a security issue for sure, All the RCMP drones are locked out of communicating over the network with DJI. It’s an issue- it’s not the size people think it is

There’s actually lots of drones that are similar priced to DJI for capabilities- the simplicity of the systems etc is what we keep going to them for. It’s like an IPhone now. We just know the setups

The other thing they have is volume. When we ask we don’t have to wait on a long lead in time for them to come up with the numbers,

I believe in 2025 we re supposed to identify the company we re moving to if I recall correctly,
