We used to sell a lot of snow to the US but due to global boiling not so much any more.

If we are holding people accountable for their lies, then there are a lot of leftists like you who are just as guilty for a lot of violence going on right now.

Great post! Make the objectives so convoluted that no-one could ever question if tax payer's money was put to good use. And if you do question it, then you hate women and little girls.

If I was in charge and had $11 billion to spend on foreign aid, I would keep it simple. Send military engineers and contractors to the world's most destitute places and provide those in need with a clean water supply, food, and medical assistance. Now that would be something.

Concerns raised that another Canadian Army project is being tailored just for U.S. equipment There has been growing frustration among some Canadian defence firms that the military is ignoring Carney’s call to decrease reliance on U.S. suppliers. Published Dec 01, 2025 Last updated 7 hours ago 4 minute read The Canadian Army's Joint Fires Modernization program will acquire modern hardware and software to aid in targeting enemy forces and connect forward observers with artillery units and other systems.Photo by CANADIAN FORCES IMAGERY A new Canadian Army equipment program that could be worth almost $500 million is designed to select only U.S.-provided equipment, despite claims by Prime Minister Mark Carney the military will be reducing purchases of American systems. The Joint Fires Modernization program will cost between $250 million and $499 million and see the acquisition of hardware and software to enable the Canadian Army to digitally share data and targeting information between its various units and coalition forces. But the technology for the Joint Fires Modernization will be acquired through the Foreign Military Sales (FMS) process with the U.S. government, according to the draft request for proposals provided to the defence industry. Not only does that exclude Canadian and European companies from bidding but the FMS process — which is a direct equipment purchase from American companies via the U.S. government —does not require any industrial benefits for Canada. Multiple defence industry officials contacted the Ottawa Citizen to raise concerns about the Joint Fires Modernization program, complaining that army commander Lt. Gen. Michael Wright and Defence Minister David McGuinty are ignoring domestic firms and European companies for upcoming major equipment programs. Those contacting the Ottawa Citizen did not want to speak on record about their concerns for fear of jeopardizing future efforts to obtain government contracts. But a review of the draft request for proposals clearly outlined the requirement for U.S. technology. “All components of the Digital Joint Fire Support C2 software will be used in conjunction with the Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data System and subsequently the AFATDS Artillery Execution Suite, available to Canada via Foreign Military Sale,” noted one of the requirements. Other key components of the project require modules and software that only American firms have access to through the U.S. government. Radios to be used are those operated by the U.S. Marine Corps and U.S. Army and which are only available to American suppliers via the U.S. government. Standard Canadian military radios are not included in the requirements. Neither Wright nor the Canadian Army responded to a request for comment. McGuinty did not respond to a request for comment. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Initial delivery of the new system would be set for 2026, according to the Canadian Forces. During a June 9 speech, Prime Minister Mark Carney repeated an earlier promisethat Canada would cut back on using its defence dollars to purchase U.S. military equipment. The U.S. has become increasingly hostile to Canada, with U.S. President Donald Trump continuing with his economic efforts to punish Canada and push for this country to become the 51st state. “We should no longer send three-quarters of our defence capital spending to America,” Carney said. “The transformation of our military capabilities can help with the transformation of our economy.” But there has been growing frustration among some Canadian defence firms that the Canadian military is ignoring Carney’s call to decrease reliance on U.S. suppliers. Canadian military leaders are extremely close to their U.S. counterparts and despite the prime minister’s direction have advocated for increased ties to the Americans. The recent sole source purchase of the U.S. High Mobility Artillery Rocket System or HIMARS also contributes to the use of American-only equipment for the Joint Fires Modernization program. The Joint Fires equipment will be used to co-ordinate artillery and rocket capabilities on the battlefield. South Korea had pitched Canada on its alternative to HIMARS which Poland recently purchased as part of its arms buildup to counter Russian aggression. South Korean companies pointed out that they were not only offering industrial benefits to Canada but sovereign control over the technology. That level of control over military systems is a particular area of concern for a number of nations considering some of the issues that have emerged with U.S. equipment. Ukraine, for instance, has used HIMARS in combat against Russian forces, but earlier this year the Americans were able to reduce the effectiveness of the weapon system by limiting the flow of data and intelligence needed for its operations. Despite the significant amount of U.S. control over HIMARS, the Canadian Army leadership convinced the Liberal government to go ahead and purchase the American system. However, that equipment won’t be delivered until at least 2029. The estimated total cost is US$1.75 billion or CDN$2.4 billion and the principal contractor is Lockheed Martin, located in Texas. The Canadian Forces and Department of National Defence did not respond to a request for comment on HIMARS and what industrial benefits, if any, were to be obtained for the more than $2 billion in spending. The Ottawa Citizen also reported Nov. 19that the Canadian Trade Tribunal issued a recommendation to reboot $100-million Canadian Army project to buy night-vision equipment in the wake of allegations the proposed purchase was designed to favour U.S. manufacturers. Canadian and European companies had complained about changes brought in by the Department of National Defence which put emphasis on U.S. products, according to government documents discussing the procurement. In a series of written responses to the government, the companies noted the changes restricted the purchase to equipment sourced exclusively from the Americans. In addition, the companies were told that the level of Canadian content in equipment to be tested would not be taken into consideration during the evaluation of systems. The federal government is aware of the tribunal decision “and is determining next steps,” Public Services and Procurement Canada spokesperson Michèle LaRose stated in an email. https://ottawacitizen.com/public-service/defence-watch/canadian-army-u-s-equipment

What does the revolution in 2014 have to do with Russia invading? Crimea and later Donbas were akin to the Nazi play occupying the Sudetenland in 1938? Russia basically occupied Crimea - held a referendum and voila a bit later Russia annexed the territory. (Obama) Russia then shifted targets to the Donbas - same play - arguing that Russian speaking citizens were being persecuted by the Ukraine authorities - brush fires sprung up between Ukraine forces and (supposedly) Russian speaking citizens (Spetsnaz) in the region claiming persecution. In sympathy Russia deployed peacekeeping troop (invasion of 2022). Ukraine doe not need troops - they're lions. Ukraine needs technology to encourage Putin to come to the table - an Armistice would likely be the result. Not happening.

When lockdowns began dragging on, I posted a bunch of child psychologists and other child development experts who warned about this. The number of people on this board that attacked me and called me a conspiracy theorist and all kinds of names.....most here will never, ever, ever admit how damaging to children and teens this was. And how unnecessary.

It's not just the fact that they're under-reporting this that matters, it's that they intentionally withheld the truth while they knew that it was costing children's lives. These guys were checking off the "death by covid" boxes like they were popping Pez - even the slightest bit of evidence that someone may have had covid within 2 weeks of their death was enough to certify a death as "by covid" - but dying within hours of the jab was always disregarded as "coincidental, pending further review", which basically meant "after the second coming of Christ". Remember the protection of the Prep Act, which stated that "malicious intent" was the minimum standard that had to be proven in order for a lawsuit to be successful? Well, imo, a class action lawsuit stating that "the intentional withholding of information about the health risks posed to children by the vaccines and the exaggeration of the necessity of vaxing children against covid, amount to the intentional killing of children." That's malice. Intentionally killing someone is malice. If they wanna argue that they killed the children for profit instead of maliciously, that's gonna leave a mark. But, at the time they finally started vaxxing children (Nov 2021 in Canada), the stats were already out there showing that 1) kids didn't need a vax, and 2) the vaccines were not slowing the spread. Malice. Done. Big Pharma faces an out of court settlement or they go out there and litigate the inexplicable truths under oath, with court-documented evidence and expert testimony, in front of the world.

He likely doesn't even know that there were deaths and permanent disabilities in the trials. Or that almost half the participants dropped out after the first jab, so they weren't counted as part of the trials. Or that 1,223 people died within 24 hours of injection in the immediate rollout of the jabs. BTW, "within 24 hours" in VAERS means it could have been 10 mins after injection or 10 hours.

What were the polls saying for Harris to win that you were touting? ROFL

Just grow up and look at the facts, User. Indisputable facts, which you have never challenged. And FYI saying "Pfizer's lab tests say they actually worked!!!!" isn't challenging anything. Death stats and hospitalization stats are where the rubber meets the road, buddy, and the jabs are roadkill. We FORCED Canadians who didn't even need protection from covid to take the jabs, based on all the lofty promises of vaccine safety and efficacy. That's a fact. In the end, we now know that the jabs: stop the spread of covid slow the spread of covid prevent people from getting sick prevent people from going to the hospital prevent people from going to ICU prevent people from dying don't kill people don't permanently damage the hearts of young people ^^Those^^ are all the vax-promises that we heard, on which we based our decision to force-vax our youth. Here's what we actually got from our forced-vax campaign in Canada: We set a huge record for covid deaths in 2022 almost 90% of the covid deaths in Canada in 2022 were from the m-vaxed whether you want to admit it or not we set a massive record for hospitalization time and ICU time in 2022 the jabs killed people the jabs injured people so badly that they suffered for years before they opted for death the jabs permanently injured the hearts of young people who didn't need the jabs but were forced to take them ^^Those^^ are all the vax-outcomes. 100%, certified, guaranteed facts. Like it or not, User, there are 8 facts up top and 6 facts in the second part which are all 100% proven by HEALTH CANADA'S OWN STATS. Those stats form the absolute basis for determining vax success or failure, and in every instance, the jabs score zero percent. 0.00000%. It's not just a failure, it's abject failure. Total failure. A complete and total lack of success. Get it? I posted the Health Canada stats here, I put links to their stats in this thread, and you have no posts or links that counter any of it. Not a single one. You actually have NOTHING but ad hominem attacks and appeal to authority arguments. And guess what, the people at the peak of the "authorities" that you're citing in your lonely "secret lab tests" narrative were caught LYING TO US about vax safety and efficacy, and you know that. R Woleknski (head of CDC) and A Fauci (head of NiH) are both on video saying in no uncertain terms that "if you get the jab you don't have to worry about getting sick and you don't need to worry about giving covid to granny". NEWSFLASH: Pfizer and Moderna both said that they never made those claims - Fauci and Wolenski either made that up, or Pfixer and Moderna lied to them and then left them holding the bag, but please tell me that you're at least intelligent enough to understand that the jabs didn't stop the spread or prevent sickness...

My Lord, all I’m saying is that other countries are catching up. It’s not like we’ve suddenly become Zimbabwe. I’ve made many comments on health reform over the years and favour a properly mixed system. Neither party has brought that in. Harper had his chance.

And? Go change your undies robo.

That would be because he's expecting the terrorist thugs from Gaza to be the ones who are invading

Amazing. You spend the last 2 years cheering on and defend the terrorist thugs in Gaza, want them to keep fighting on and killing Israelis… And now you want Canada to just surrender to anyone who wants to invade.

Did it? We went from "The jabs do not cause myocarditis in children" to a black box warning on the label now and the only countries jabbing kids are Canada and the US. How many dead and disabled kids are acceptable for a product that doesn't stop transmission and doesn't prevent death? We went from "If it just saves one life" to burning children to keep octogenarian adults warm.....while failing at its intended goal.

Studies show jabbed people get more covid than unjabbed people, due to their immune systems being destroyed by the jabs. (See all the studies on IGg4 switch, P53, antibody lowering, etc in the Trickle thread. It's happening, my dude. It's well-documented.) So if jabbed people get covid say......6-10 times (like many of the jabbed people I know) and unjabbed people (like me) get covid ZERO times or maybe once and now have natural immunity (which is better than vax immunity), which group has a better chance of experiencing hospitalization and death?

I think there is a line missing though. Give a Democrat and he will eat for a day and then keep coming back everyday demanding a fish and if you cant give them a fish they will just steal it.

............. private industry doesn't have an iron rice bowl ................ the tax payer...... they either generate profit or they claim Article 5. The poster child of gov inefficiency could be Canada Post ....... OMG ...... the CUPE goes on strike???

RE: It’s what comes after? Puppet regime ......... Venezuela oil is crucial to China though, one needs to be careful.

Wars have never benefited the people, only a few kings and dictators who enriched themselves. Today, they really only benefit a handful of businessmen, not the people. As far as I’m concerned, they could just load Canada’s weapons onto old ships and sink them in the Pacific and the Atlantic. Nobody is going to come kill us for pleasure. If they want to plunder our gold mines, let them do it.

Capitalizing the word "logic" isn't enough to convey ownership of it and asserting that credibility can thrive in the absence of "any facts" won't hasten its possession.

Ah yes. We don't need to make murder illegal, just stop killing people! Focus on treating the motives for murder instead.

Yes, it’s relative decline. A country like Ireland, for example, has seen an explosion in living standards in recent decades.

I don't think that murdering someone at the beginning of a supply chain is a legal, moral or ethical way to prevent consumers from getting something you'd rather they not have. Nor do I think it can be reasonably justified as combat. If there were drugs on the boats (and I don't believe that evidence has been produced) then who's to say the drugs weren't headed for other destinations? -- Well, I guess nobody is to say, since double-tap Hegseth murdered them. And I absolutely do think that party-boy Hegseth, the sharer of classified information on signal chats, is haphazard, reckless and careless. He's certainly not smart or thoughtful.

Yep, the president of the USA lied for months to make that happen, and the steady drumbeat of lies worked on the dumbest Americans. And, to be fair, apparently the dumbest Canadians. Just repeating something over and over with no evidence isn't going to work on any thinking person, but he didn't need thinking people to form a violent mob. Just useful ldiots.

Holy shit, "admit" is a funny word to use here, in that it implies a party acknowledging a previously unacknowledged fact. Yet no facts have been established--simply claims with no data to support such claims. The kooks currently running the FDA Trump appointed an anti-vax loon in Kennedy. Kennedy in turn looks for more anti-vax loons more interested in promoting their dogma than doing the science. VAERS reports are not documented in any way. This is the equivalent of issuing a press release about any other undocumented claim on the internet--entirely worthless and pointless. And you swallowed it hook line and sinker, because, well, of course you would. Meanwhile, the facts are well established that the vaccine (and other measures) saved millions.

This should be a number one song.... https://www.facebook.com/reel/2290115981492146

Note: The FDA did not release any documentation; this was a memo with no specifics given, alleging deaths based on previous VAERS data. "The memo, sent Friday, did not include the children’s ages or medical histories, timelines or documentation for the deaths he references and does not identify the manufacturer of the vaccine. The FDA’s findings have not been published in a peer-reviewed journal."

Food for thought... I saw that Jan 6 rally. There was a small city's worth of people there. They came from all over the states. They all thought the election results were...questionable.

From the same article: "Now, what would you say if we told you that in 1990 Canada ranked fifth in life expectancy, and that in 2023 it was ranked 22nd?" What would I say? 12 of those years were Conservative govt's. From the same article: "Admittedly, Canadian life expectancy in 2023 of 81.7 years is higher than it was in 1990 at 77.5 years," Thank you Liberals for increasing our life expectancy! Thank you CdnFoxnetwork for bringing this to our attention.

And now Congress is investigating that punk Hegseth's 'double-tap' order that violates the Rules of War. Kelly was right.

I told you this a million times kid, nobody here is arguing with you. This isn't a debate or a discussion, you've never been able to make a clear point and your entire time here. You're the comic relief. We all enjoy laughing at you. LOL but i suppose a kid like you wouldn't have realized that It's absolutely hilarious that not only do you think you're actually in an 'argument', but that you think you're doing great! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Honestly, you just can't buy this kind of humour You're here for us to laugh at kiddo. Take a bow

I think without the Trump-triggered crisis Canadians wouldn’t have been willing for the massive reforms needed. Certainly business and finance would have fought to preserve the status quo and only accepted minor policy tweaks. And PP doesn’t have the business chops or the connections to make any real reforms possible. I think it really took the Trump Crisis and someone like Carney to really make waves. What remains to he seen is how much friction he will get from the business and finance community. I understand Carney and co. are really pressing Canadian pension funds, banks etc to invest more in Canada and to demand more reinvestment growth and innovation from the firms they invest in rather than just distribute their profits to shareholders as dividends.

I'm beginning to believe that the majority of Canadians are ignorant of their history - such as it is. What is somewhat troubling or should be is that it is not taught or if it is, its vetted to either not offend a diaspora or takes on the approach of vilifying those men (mostly) who were icons in Canada's development. With the proportional HUGE immigration into the country don't expect any real allegiance to it - Canadian history will be either disregarded, too Nationalistic, too racist, not woke enough, embarrassing, discriminatory, too NOT Canadian. History needs to be taught, understood - warts and all.

Why would you vote for the party that banned shielding?

I said an assembly picked at random. Why did you ignore that and imply the assembly was rigged? This a real window on how your diseased mind works. You should try to learn from it.

It seems pretty clear to me we'll have to open up the Constitution to reform. I'd have it worded by an assembly of citizens picked at random like a jury. Of course Conservatives have proven to be pretty useless at opening up the Constitution but...that's no excuse for not trying again. I'd say they can't unless there's someone keeping an eye on them who can observe, record and report back to us that its all above board. And that's why we need to enshrine transparency and accountability in the Constitution - so that the only way slimeballs can make our governments opaque and unaccountable again is to open the Constitution for that specific purpose. FIFY, you forgot to put your silly shit eating smiley face where it usually goes.

Which is what Trump was doing, in his own ham-fisted way. He's brash and rude and doesn't give a 💩 what anybody thinks of it. I take him seriously, but not literally. You allowed the Liberal party to manipulate you into voting for them - again - by using fear of the Americans invading us. It's 100% you that are being naive.

Your lack of knowledge about about, well, everything is breathtaking.

The FDA recently put out a memo saying the covid shots killed at least 10 kids. We all know that's under-reporting. The report deserves more than just a knee-jerk dismissal by "experts" and narrative poseurs. The report is not an "anti-vaccine playbook" tactic, as critics suggest. It's a courageous step forward towards transparency and accountability in a public health system that has, for too long, prioritized narrative over evidence. The memo's reliance on VAERS is a feature. VAERS is designed as an early warning system. While it's true that reports are unverified, the FDA's internal analysis concluded that " no fewer than 10 deaths were related to vaccination, likely due to myocarditis, a risk signal identified as early as 2021. Dismissing this ignores the fact that VAERS has historically flagged serious issues, like the Johnson & Johnson covid vax clotting issue, which later prompted action, and the Astra Zeneca vax, which was completely pulled from the market. Remember - 2 out of the 4 covid vaccines that were forced on people were pulled for safety issues, and then Big Pharma immediately went into "lock down the data" mode to keep the other 2 on the market.

but how would you launder your money then?

Yeah, and that's horrible. ANd most of it was lost under liberals. Harper actually did fairly well restoring some of the funding to the provinces that chretien had cut. Of course trudeau got in and it went down again. The liberals have cost a lot of canadians their lives. Not just their quality of life, which is ALSO down under the libs.

I feel like there's a fair bit of education with regards to health out there, where do you feel we've been following short? No stats, no links, and it doesn't make any sense. What a perfectly leftist response

It really takes zero effort There is hope however that if you keep rubbing the teens nose in the fact that he's regarded as a loser and a child by everybody But at some point he will learn to correct his behavior rather than look like such a tard. And your case there's not a lot of hope, but still If it were the liberals, they would start up a company and then have that company buy up all the cheap and crappy on irrigated land in the country and question and then send the military to improve their areas Then they own rich productive fertile areas and it cost them nothing
