  1. It was argued by some that the surface-to-air guided missile, with a range of 640 km, would be an effective replacement for the manned interceptor Avro Arrow, which the Diefenbaker government had scrapped. The missiles would theoretically intercept any Soviet attacks on North America before they reached the industrial heartland of Canada. that's brilliant, shoot down nukes with nukes.
  2. Why would I? The war in Afghanistan was just.

Continue on with your disillusioned views of our history.
  4. https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/amp/world-us-canada-50087392 So now they admit to holding up the aid but want to blame the democrats? What a country. Syria is a bigger mess now than it was before. https://www.militarytimes.com/news/2019/10/16/what-it-means-for-us-bases-in-syria-to-be-occupied-by-syrian-and-russian-forces/ The U.S. pullout of Iraq in 2011 precipitated the rise of ISIS. A senior U.S. defense official told reporters Tuesday that U.S. forces would continue the defeat ISIS fight from Iraq. I will laugh when the u.s. war machine rolls back out in a couple of years.
  5. https://www.google.ca/amp/s/globalnews.ca/news/5398763/canada-election-meddling/amp/ Their discord peaked when Diefenbaker refused Kennedy’s wishes to store nuclear warheads in Canada as part of a defence pact with the U.S., something that was supported by Canada’s opposition Liberal leader, Lester B. Pearson.
  6. Sort of happened back in the 60's when Kennedy and Diefenbaker got into a spat over the u.s. placing nukes in Canada. Pearson won the election, but still, no nukes here.

  8. Well I'm glad that someone got it. Im going to go out on a limb here and guess your last name isnt trump.
  9. What I find intriguing is that the eu is having a summit tomorrow that was expected to mostly be about brexit. I guess they will have to extend the summit through the weekend now.
  10. https://www.eia.gov/tools/faqs/faq.php?id=727&t=6 Have fun walking.
  11. https://www.marinecorpstimes.com/news/marine-corps-times/2019/10/15/marine-iraq-war-veteran-to-be-deported-to-el-salvador-tuesday/ Sounds like untreated PTSD. Hope his appeal works out.
  12. Why not pull out of middle east entirely?
  13. "This is a mistake worse than what (Barack) Obama did" when the former president withdrew U.S. troops from Iraq in 2011, Senator Lindsey Graham, usually among Trump's strongest supporters, told reporters. trump says that they were there for no reason. interesting.
  14. Good one comrade.
  15. https://www.google.ca/amp/s/beta.ctvnews.ca/national/world/2019/10/16/1_4640069.html France has suggested it will also work more closely with Russia in Syria. French Foreign Minister Jean Yves Le Drian said in an interview on French television channel BFM Wednesday that France is notably now looking to Russia, given their “common interests” in defeating the Islamic State group in Syria. Well now theres a whole new mess. Nice going trump.
  16. Even if they are doing what trump did, they cant be impeached. He can be.
  17. In a statement provided by the family’s lawyer, Bridget Cambria, Ms Connors said they were flown to Berks Family Residential Centre, on the other side of the country in Pennsylvania, and denied the right to contact their embassy. Sounds fishy imo. Why wouldn't they be allowed to contact their embassy?
  18. Good movie. I'll take cash, Visa or PayPal.
  19. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2019/10/15/politics/alaska-national-forest-logging/index.html Oh man I can already see the protesters foaming at the mouth.
  20. On Saturday. Early polls are a godsend. No line up. Was in there literally two minutes.
  21. https://writingexplained.org/cheque-vs-check-difference Cheque is used in British english for finances. Are there any real Canadians on here?
