Now I know that you obviously know nothing about the military. Let alone the F35 program.

Except for the fact that I'm right you're wrong

Quote

"Yes, Canada has contributed to the development of the F-35 Lightning II through its long-standing partnership in the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) program

 
Exactly. You just proved my point perfectly. We contributed money to its development and that gave us the right to purchase.
 
But it absolutely did not commit us. No decision was made at that time, we absolutely had not placed an order at that point
So when you say the decision was made that is absolutely a lie. No decision at all was made other than we would put up 10 million dollars towards the development which would give us the right to purchase later if we chose to
 
And everybody just realized you've been lying all along about having served in the military. Literally everybody who's been around at all understands this. They understand that no purchase agreement was made and that both harper and Trudeau considered other choices and had not committed to purchasing any aircraft
 
That was a severely hard fail on your part

You fail ...again ...LOSER!!!!

What are you trying to argue??? We will get the F35...every Military Air Force person knows that. If you think spending over $900 million over the years is not a commitment then, well, you are foolish. If you think there will be 2 fleets, then you are beyond comprehension foolish LOL

 

Why I'm Wrong About Everything (And So Are You)

"Canada has entered into a contract to purchase F-35 fighter jets, but the total scope of the acquisition is currently under review due to trade and political tensions.

 
Here are the key details as of early 2026:
  • Initial Contract (Confirmed): Canada has officially signed a contract to buy 16 F-35s.
  • Deliveries: These first 16 jets are scheduled to begin delivery in 2026, with deliveries continuing until 2030.
  • Total Order (Under Review): While the original plan was to purchase a total of 88 F-35s, the government is currently reviewing the purchase of the remaining 72 jets.
  • Current Status: Despite the review, Canada has started to make payments for an additional 14 F-35s (bringing the known, paid-for total to 30) to ensure its spot in the production line.

Stop with the bullshit. You have no idea what Carney’s investments are. Furthermore, Carney’s assets are in a blind trust so he doesn’t know either. There’s ZERO evidence Carney has made any decisions based on personal profit. 
 

Meanwhile your hero Trump is on the take like no western leader in history openly taking bribes in plain sight and you don’t say a peep you shameless tool. 

Most of Carneys investments were public knowledge prior to him getting elected...blind trust means he SHOULD have no further involvement in add or subtracting his investments...and some how these politicians seem to get richer upon their retirement... unless your saying he sold all his shares in Brookfield.. So stop all the foolishness about it is all in trust and he does not know what is in there...You also have zero evidence that it did not happen, we all hope it does not happen but he is one of the most powerful men in the country...

Except i'm right and you're wrong :)  LOLOL  ANd you've completely exposed yourself now by not understanding how procurement works.  You claimed to be a part of procurement for the military and that is a lie,

What are you trying to argue???

The facts and the truth. You seem opposed. 
 

You claimed that canada made it's decision to buy these planes in the 9O'S.  Your words: " The decision had been made when we started paying over $10 million per year for the F35 development back in 1997."

This was in response to a post noting they're deciding now if they should buy the planes.

I pointed out that this was entirely wrong.  we did not make a decision to buy the planes back then at all. That investment simply gave us the right to at a later date. 

You have argued that is false....  then posted proof that it's 100 percent true. Which is typical for you :) 

We absolutely did not make a decision to buy those planes back in 1997. In fact we had not made a decision to purchase them by 2007 or even 2017.

So what you said is a lie and you seem to be misunderstanding how procurement works, agreeing to put money into development in exchange for the right to purchase the planes later on if we want is not the same as placing an order for the planes or making the final decision

You've embarrassed yourself. And proven what we've been saying about you all along

All that nonsense to only prove you are a LOSER!!

Clearly you know nothing about the F35 program, its development and procurement. 

Just a LOSER proving he is a LOSER

Wait for it...we paid over $900 million for development and we will get F35'

the MQ 9 contract was awarded in December 2023 way too late for a 2025 delivery which is actually 2028 not “mid 2030s”

Probably got the 2025 date from google AI

AI Overview
  • Original Plan: Initial delivery was originally expected around 2025.
  • Current Timeline: The Department of National Defence (DND) delayed this to 2028 due to the need for modifications to allow the drones to operate in the Arctic, with full operational capability expected by 2033.
  • Current Status: Production has begun, with the first two drones currently in production in San Diego and expected to start tests in 2026, leading to the 2028 delivery. 
    CBC +4
The delay to 2028 was confirmed by the DND in late 2023,, largely driven by the requirement to integrate specialized sensors (WESCAM MX-20) and adapt the drones for high-latitude, cold-weather operations.

Not true we ordered MQ9 Skyguardian drones with munitions in 2023 and delivery of the first one is coming up. 
 

There are several drone projects underway with the army and navy. It’s actually a bit of a goldrush environment right now with all the money being handed out for drone and counter-drone tech.
 

But yes we are playing catch up and still have a way to go. 

I had not heard of this, and I'm happy to see it. But I'm not sure how effective these expensive, long-duration drones are going to be vs the emerging threat of masses of cheap suicide drones that are flying back and forth in Ukraine, and which are apparently in the arsenals of dozens of countries.

You don’t get to make up accusations amd rhen say “you have zero evidence it didn’t happen” that’s not how it works  

 

Also we’re not talking about Brookfield we’re talking about the ridiculous claim that he has some vested interest in Lockheed Martin specifically because it was one of the hundreds of stock that his investment manager had put in his portfolio in the past even though carney would not know if it’s there because now it’s in a blind trust

 

And another thing:  there is absolutely nothing unique or unusual or inappropriate about Carney owning stocks  Most if not all of your favourite politicians own stocks too  In fact given Carney’s impeccable reputation and resume which includes being lauded by Stephen Harper who still considers him a friend, Carney is probably the LEAST likeliest person to make inappropriate decisions for personal gain

They’re working on it  Still no ETA on a delivery date or final product though  

Drone army: New initiative to accelerate small uncrewed systems

In September, Army commander Lieutenant-General Michael Wright officially launched the Minerva Initiative, a capability development program focused on integrating drones and autonomous systems into land force operations.

It’s not a procurement project in the traditional sense, explained Lieutenant-Colonel Cory Durant, the initiative’s chief planner with the Directorate of Land Requirements (DLR), but rather a comprehensive approach to “rapidly move the Army towards the adoption of small-form uncrewed systems.”

https://canadianarmytoday.com/drone-army-new-initiative-to-accelerate-small-uncrewed-systems/

As for now, The troops in Latvia have Switchblade Kamikazes, or at least they have already been ordered, not sure if they’re delivered yet.

I don’t know where the 2025 date comes from, maybe some earlier unfunded wish list. But when the contract was actually issued in December 2023, 2028 was the date for initial delivery due to rhe canadianization which is totally normal.

Nowhere does it say their relationship is inappropriate or unusual or that there is anything unusual about the LOAN. Telesat is both a world leader and the only Canadian option. As to the article, Brookfield still hasn’t gotten any money and thw article gives away that it was the government, not Brookfield who called for investment firms pension funds etc to invest more in Canada which is something I think most people support. Is there anyone who DOESNT think investors should invest in Canada?

This was your latest cowardly hit and run:
 

 

I stand by it. The reason given for attacking Venezuela was “narco terrorists”  who were deliberately killing Americans by trafficking cocaine to US soil.
 

So for anyone to claim it was never about cocaine now is hilarious. And that’s the only drug that transited through Venezuela, not fentanyl, not heroine not crystal meth.

I love how you play dumb now about your made up claim about the amounts and you are still wrong about it being specifically about cocaine. Now you make up another lie about attacking Venezuela… 
 

Now run away like you usually do.

You're not calling anything out.  You're acting out a compulsion.  It's a ~90% probability that you will accuse anyone/everyone you debate with of lying within the first 2-3 posts. 

It's unhinged behavior that eliminates any opportunity for good faith debate from the start, so when people stop responding to you...that's because they're running away?  Last word wins, right!?  🤡

I get it only liberals can make those accusations....

And somehow these politicians are richer after they retire, than when they went in, and on a PM salary come on...maybe they should have put everything in a blind trust on day one certain do much better...

I don't think his reputation is impeccable...and his resume is not all that impressive, there are many people out there that don't agree with your assessment those that had close ties to him in his impeccable jobs...

Why is he the least likeliest, because you say so...sorry...

The point of contention is that you are asking someone to prove something didn't happen.  That's silly.  The burden of proof is almost always on the affirmative claim.  If you are claiming something happened, you have to show evidence of it.  Demanding evidence that it didn't happen is nonsensical - like asking people to disprove that aliens exist.  It's impossible.
