multiple failures understatement. Esp. if her screen was around. If they choose to be operating solo as about to enter the canal or something then I would truly ask what casual crap is it that suddenly the screen is not needed because "canal". Navigation aside, warshippy stuff that is a high risk

agree, but then saying wing is weird.

Honestly, it's so half baked , all of it, that it is not even worth serious analysis. That isn't to say he won't try when/if elected to do and it will be...sad, the outcome will be sad

34 years today, 2 friends gone.

I heard about the accident but not the who, it was a month later on way back to Halifax from Gulf I heard the who, and I was gutted.

The odds 2 old friends, dive buddies and many adventures together shipmates from Nipigon would be the victims still hurts.

Tungsten Miner Says Clients in Disbelief as China Chokes Supply The phone has been ringing off the hook for Lewis Black after China imposed export controls on tungsten, a niche metal mined by his firm that’s crucial to weapons manufacturing.

Recall the US DOD investing in Tungsten mining in Canada?

If I opened a fiction book that started with the headlines of today 10 years ago I would have laughed and thought "too over over the top" and not bothered to read it.

That obviously would have been a mistake

Proud Boys Lose Control of Their Name to a Black Church They Vandalized (Gift Article) A judge awarded the trademarked name and symbols to a Washington church to help satisfy a $2.8 million judgment against the far-right group.

Judge rules that Black church in DC, which won a $2.8 million default judgment against the Proud Boys, now gains control over the trademark β€œProud Boys.” The far-right group is barred from selling any related merchandise or symbols without the consent of the church. Gift link:

Of note, Musk used his Canadian passport to leave South Africa so he could dodge his compulsory service there.

they sure have been doing their ww1 trench with head in the mud warfare for a bit and accomplishing nada but losing. Epic slow response and now facing a real election where they actually may have to work hard and still not get more than a minority

Poilievre's pivot: Conservatives conducting internal surveys to adapt message | CBC News A possible tariff war with the United States, Justin Trudeau's departure and the Liberal leadership race are all upsetting Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre's campaign plans. And behind the scenes,...

When CPC admits that a "broken Canada" has only been a "fine tuned message" to get elected, not reality.

I "suffer" (it's also helpful in other ways however) from not having an inner monologue and doing quick comments will often have me organize thoughts in a weird way unless I slow down and force myself to think of what words, position and structure, which then annoys me as sometimes it's darn hard

"if" we were to plan defence spending w/ the only goal of being able to fight the states, what I would propose would be a bit different.

Think Sweden the last 80 years.

first no, it would be a waste of cash and second, that is how we go from an economic force attempt to US troops rolling in long before we have the first nuke.

If you think we could make them in secret and just say "we have now", we couldn't hide it from states
