  1. We'll see. It's a new era, Canada hasn't seen this kind of threat for 150 years.
  2. More civilized for staters.
  3. It will take time but how long will depend on how much effort and money is put into it. Europe already manufactures 3 very capable Gen 4.5 fighters that still have a lot of upgrade potential and are working on 6 Gen aircraft. They certainly have the industrial and technological capability to build whatever they need. Canada needs to work on partnerships with Europe rather than the US when it comes to major systems. Too bad there isn't a BAE Canada like there is in Australia so we didn't have to partner with Lockmart to build the Type 26's. We should also reconsider some of the US systems that are going into those ships.
  4. That's a two edged sword. The more the US interferes the more other countries will understand the need to disengage with the US.
  5. I din't know. Typhoon is a consortium of Airbus, BAE and Leonardo. Gripen could be re engined. Europe is having to re evaluate its dependence on the US defence industry as well as us.
  6. Carney's net worth is 9.71 million according to PP News. I would have thought it would be more. https://www.pierrepoilievrenews.ca/mark-carneys-net-worth-revealed-inside-the-financial-success-of-canadas-former-top-banker/

  8. Yup. Trump turned out to be the Liberal's best friend. Canadian MAGA hats will still worship him.
  9. No one is saying they intended to do it but it just shows what a bunch of amateur incompetents these people are when it comes to security and their jobs in general.
  10. 99% of what comes out of Trump's mouth about Canada is rubbish. Like this is a surprise?
  11. It was also fun watching Gabbard squirm as she tried to explain why Canada wasn't on her own departments list of major fentanyl imports and how that contradicted the rhetoric coming from Trump. All she could so was talk about Mexico. F*cking amateurs.
  12. Alex Jones. Seriously? How far gone are you?
  13. Yup, impeach anyone who crosses der fuher. You really do want a dictatorship.
  14. If the F-22 isn't for export, the F-47 probably won't be either, which really doesn't matter if you don't have to fight the US. The problem with the F-35 is the US may decide to degrade its capability if they don't approve of who it is used against. In Trump's case, Russia.
