    The Arrow was definitely ahead of its time, but the F-22 actually evolved from the Air Force’s Advanced Tactical Fighter program in the 1980s with completley different design requirements than the Arrow’s interceptor role from the 50’s.

    Kinder Morgan left due to our laws preventing development. They didn’t want to be blamed for causing capital flight so they bought the pipeline to prevent bad press. We had the 2nd last performance in the 38 countries of the OECD in per capita GDP growth since 2015. We take our standard of living for granted and if Carney didn’t come in the Liberals would have been wiped out.

    The reason is nobody wants mass immigration to artifically replace GDP, which lead to capital shallowing and everyone becoming poorer in the aggregate. In the 38 countries of the OECD Canada was second to last only to Luxembourg since 2015 in per capita GDP growth, it has been abysmal and it hurts the poor the most. The rich like Carney invest in the US, as per his recent disclosures.

    I do not understand what point you are trying to make here. My point is jail is better than committing genocide or have really bad ptsd that you commit suicide. Regardless, once in gaza if a soldier who was forced to join the war want to kill a Palestinian, shouldn’t the Palestinian have to right to kill before he get killed? Yes. One can clearly see that violence is not benefiting Ukrainians, Russians, North Koreans, or any other group involved in direct conflict. This is so naive. We all would like to see the occupier/invader/aggressor to stop violence and get held accountable but it was never the case in history , it’s such an idealistic view. We know really well that Russians goal is to assimilate Ukrainians and for Israel to kick out Palestinians and take the land they believe was given to them by god. Are you telling me Ukrainians and Palestinians should not resistance and kill invaders and wait for justice to come by itself and for Russians to stop the invasion, Israel yo stop occupation . Would you like if you tell someone that a person is threatening to kill you and that person tell you if the person who threaten come to kill you , don’t your violence to defend yourself and kill him as the last resort?

    Please, just make the produce affordable. Automation is supposed to drive down costs, not give them an excuse to sell $8 lettuce.

    I live out on Vancouver Island these days (although have previously lived in Toronto and Montreal — so I know what summers there are like!), and we don’t get -25C weather. Snow is a bit of a rarity as well (we do tend to get snow a few times every winter — but it often doesn’t stick around or accumulate for long). As such, so far I haven’t even bothered to put winter tires on the car — I have M+S tire, the car is heavy, and “snow mode” (which you get by holding down the “Drive Mode” button on the steering wheel) does a great job of ensuring traction is maintained in the snow. For the maybe three times we get a bit of snow each year it more than suffices. Fortunately I learned to drive in Southern Ontario with lake effect snowfall. It’s amazing how many people on the island just have no freaking clue how to deal with the tiniest dusting of snow .

    Extreme propaganda programming seems the cornerstone of any “legitimate” democracy. Not healthy for you. GM partnered with/licensed China for US battery plant, and Mexico is not particularly know for battery science expertise, and China partnership there led to plants. Canada can do the same, with Canadian sourced raw materials. Honda was supposed to do something. Start threatening auto companies to invest or get their assets seized.

    For those wondering, here is Bonnie Critchley’s platform: Bonnie understands the frustration many Albertans feel with Ottawa, but she also knows that separation would only create deeper economic, social, and security challenges for families here. She is committed to fighting for Alberta’s fair treatment within Confederation and ensuring rural voices are heard at the federal table. Having fought bush and grass fires and assisted in multiple evacuations, especially of livestock, Bonnie knows firsthand the real and growing impacts of climate change. She has seen how extreme weather events threaten lives, farms, and entire communities across Alberta. Focus on Crime Prevention Support policies that tackle illegal gun trafficking and organized crime, not rural families who rely on firearms for predator control or livelihood. “Investing in our communities is about more than just building roads and bridges. It’s about building a future we can be proud of.” As someone who has spent her life in rural Alberta, Bonnie knows that family farms are the backbone of our communities and economy. She believes farmers deserve fair policies that keep them independent and thriving not pushed out by corporate consolidation. Bonnie believes that if you own something, you should have the right to repair it. She does not believe the government has any place in regulating how people manage their own bodies, their health, or their personal choices. This includes reproductive rights, gender identity, and how individuals choose to present themselves.

    I went in to get a vaccine for foreign travel (~6 years ago) and the nurse suggested getting the MMR vaccine because of an additional vaccine in the mix. I had the MMR in school (90s) but it has been expanded, so it was a free shot

    Definitely same funding sources and playbook. If you can look to the south and say to yourself “Yeah, I want that” I personally think you should leave. This planet would be nice, but I’ll settle for this country. We don’t want you here.
