An quote from the Consis Canada: "That is the procurement lesson: every middle power facing a larger autocratic threat needs to build around dispersed, decentralized, multi-domain long-range strike capacity before the crisis arrives. Not after. Not when the border is already burning. Before.
All Canadians should pay attention to this. The Putin playbook that led to the Ukraine War is being run against us, not just by Russia, but by the US regime. I hate to say it, but the BC Premier's use of the word 'treason' was accurate. This is foreign incitement. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
It is good to see that some rational Conservatives still exist in Canada, and Mr. Stratton's article here raises many pertinent concerns. The key issue is time. We just may not have much of it.
This is an amazing feat of endurance and wisdom earned from living on ancestral land. The Canadian Rangers are simply outstanding, and the rest of the country has much to learn from them.
I wonder what a similar study might show here in Canada, seeing as how much of the country is hard igneous rock with, in a few areas, some sedimentary overlay....
Per my previous post. This is what we are up against. This woman - iirc a US citizen - was dragged from her car by cosplaying blackshirts for the crime of looking brown. Canadians can never give in to this perfidy.
The question here is pertinent to Canada. Possessing deep strike capability into an aggressor's rear area is an essential part of a "poisonous shrimp" defensive posture. Ukraine led the way and the Iranians have also put it to use. CDA needs cruise and ballistic capability ASAP.
This is worth a read. It is a very frank and honest piece of diplomacy. One that shows more charity than I could personally muster in the circumstances. But also fairly remind the dictator that when Russia gets fatigued, change happens. Usually unpleasantly....
Now this is a cool photo. All credit to the photographer who was able to capture the comet as it passed nearby a trio of galaxies.
The Economist has really been on a tear lately with their covers....
