@kpac_15 I called it a year ago. It is coming. All the other noise doesn’t compare to the threat to America from Canada’s dereliction of duty to protect the Arctic from Russia and China. 🇨🇦🇺🇸💯

Damn. Even Costco is almost $5/gal. The Stinger can run on the cheaper stuff… but it runs so much better with the good stuff.

🇨🇦 Canada “hits” the 2% NATO target. 💁🏻‍♂️Reality: we built a better spreadsheet. Mark Carney is taking a victory lap .but here’s how the 2.01% was reached: • $14B “ghost” spending: ~22% comes from outside the Department of National Defence • Pension pivot: veterans’ benefits + RCMP pensions counted as “defence” • Dual-use stretch: infrastructure like wastewater + base Wi-Fi labeled as security • 5% sleight of hand: 3.5% military + 1.5% civilian projects (airports, ports, highways) Bottom line: We’re meeting NATO targets by relabeling domestic spending. On paper: elite ally. In reality: still waiting on actual equipment. ⚓️🚫 Accounting masterclass or defence policy? You decide. 👇 #cdnpoli #NATO #CanadaDefense #CAF

We’ve hit the NATO 2% spending target — so that our women and men in uniform have the resources they need to keep Canadians safe.

If I didn't know this was the NDP convention I would have honestly thought it was a Monty Pythons sketch. Absolute nutfuckery!

I spent 12 hours on three different @AirCanada flights today. One from the US and two across Canada. I don’t mind Air Canada overall, but they were speaking extra French today, including several announcements in French only. Overcorrection? Or just French Canadian arrogance? 🤔

Young Canadians wait in massive three-hour lineup for a job fair in Calgary as youth unemployment hits 14.1%. Yet the business lobby tells us they need cheap foreign labour because of "labour shortages".

One of the best visuals of the US vs Canada's military strength. I had no idea just how ill-equipped we really were. We should be incredibly thankful that they are our neighbors.

Carney bragging about ice breakers after 15 years of telling us the Arctic ice will be gone. The level of hypocrisy is astounding. Also. Does anyone really give a fuck if Canada has 42 ice breakers right now?

U.S. is Open to bypassing B.C. for a Tidewater Pipeline in addition to a new Southern Pipeline. US Ambassador: “Put a pipeline down to the border… if Alberta wanted us to build a pipeline to the west coast, because they said we’ve got another 2M barrels of oil per day that we want to ship to Asia and Japan, I would think that we’d be very open to having that discussion”. Time for B.C. to stop scoring goals in our own Canadian net of bureaucracy. Sounds very similar to the $1-billion proposed export terminal at the Port of Longview, Washington from Nutrien

Russia has 8 nuclear powered icebreakers plus nuclear subs that can pop through the ice anytime.
Dei Civitas@bill_c10

Does Canada have real icebreakers? No. Is this a problem? Yes. A real icebreaker, in the strict professional sense used by experienced merchant marine captains, is a modern heavy polar icebreaker rated Polar Class 1 or 2 (PC1 or PC2) under international classification rules. These ships are built with extreme hull strength, massive propulsion power, and reinforced designs that allow them to operate independently year-round in thick multi-year Arctic ice, including breaking through moderate to heavy ice conditions without seasonal limits or escorts. They differ from lighter or older vessels that mainly handle first-year ice during summer months or in less demanding areas like the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River. Canada urgently needs many such real heavy polar icebreakers to assert sovereignty over its vast Arctic waters and the Northwest Passage, support northern communities with reliable resupply, conduct scientific research, perform search-and-rescue, and manage growing international shipping as sea ice declines. With Russia operating dozens of powerful (often nuclear) icebreakers and other nations increasing Arctic activity, Canada risks losing effective control if it cannot maintain a consistent year-round presence. Without strong icebreaking capability, foreign vessels could transit Canadian waters with little oversight, weakening claims to internal waters and exposing critical infrastructure and resources to external influence. Yet Canada currently has none. Its flagship, the aging CCGS Louis S. St-Laurent was launched in 1966 and is now over 60 years old. It is rated only Arctic Class 4 (not a modern Polar Class rating) and is limited in independent high-Arctic winter operations. The rest of the Canadian Coast Guard fleet consists of capable medium and light icebreakers suited for seasonal or coastal duties, but they fall short of the strict heavy polar standard. This gap leaves Canada dependent on weather windows and vulnerable in a rapidly changing Arctic. Two new Polar Class 2 icebreakers are under construction with deliveries expected around 2030, but until then the absence of real heavy polar capability is a serious weakness for national security and Arctic leadership.

Concorde burned nearly 50% of its fuel just to reach Mach 2. Afterburners consumed ~32.5 L/sec during takeoff and acceleration, before dropping at cruise. Could modern Rolls-Royce engineers do better today?
