    Canada’s Military current state & equipment

    Hard to believe there would be a return with the capital invested in those programs although do agree people come out when they are around. The Musical Ride stopped in Dryden a few years back and it must have been the Ag Society that coughed up as paid attendance was 1000 at best. Kids...

    Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Ontario. They all get structured as cost plus and the longer they go the better they are for the consortium

    Canada’s Military current state & equipment

    Would not bother me if they retired the Snowbirds along with the Musical Ride of the RCMP. That money is not well spent imo.

    Unfortunate that Canada has neither money or equipment to send. Of course we borrow the money to cover both.

    If I had a farm I would be betting it on BC -2.5 against the Bombers at home. The only thing that can save Winnipeg will be the Command Center. Unlikely to score 14 points with Streveler at QB even though I think he'll do okay. BC could easily put up 28. Proline also paying 2.30 to the brave...

    He did well in Winnipeg and played 3 years past his best before date imo. Maybe he gets into coaching.

    The Mexican American War

    To think or at least be under that impression that they may be safer in LA than they were in Mexico is a sad reality. There were no jobs for them on either side. It would be nice if one day we could give peace a chance. Smile on your brother kind of thing.

    I seem to remember a significant down payment at the time the contract was signed in 2023. I'm going to go along with the "all warplanes and frigates are obsolete" theory.

    Surprised Hamilton has not signed Adam Bighill yet.

    Kind of a week one windup; Riders adding Ka'Deem Carey is a legit move that will help. 100 yd games to come. No gimme to win against Hamilton this week though. Clark Barnes could be the next one to land a big deal thanks to Vernon Adams and a nice 10 tackle start to a CFL career for Marquel...

    Canada Post Strike

    The union is there for their own jobs. They add little value to the equation imo.

    Big 2 points for the Riders that will come in handy later on. Proline paid the over for those that follow along. Mario Alford, Thomas Bertrand - Hudon, Sam Emilus, Keeshawn Johnson all looked good. Harris threw for 277 and lives to play another game. Unfortunate for Bertrand-Hudon his best run...

    Seems to me the Riders will have their hands full with Ottawa Thursday night despite being 3.5 point favorites. Redblacks have a solid lineup on both sides. If Adarious Pickett is back up to speed he will give the Rider O line fits. I don't see the Riders running the ball too much. Hoping smoke...

    https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/news/carney-canadian-premiers-bid-speed-163327845.html Part of the problem with fast tracking large infrastructure projects is the lack of control that goes along with it. Everything is cost + and everybody knows it. It actually works better for the contractor if...
