We need advanced defense equipment to keep out american fascists.



Pessimists said this would never happen and that boycotts are pointless 🤣




Uproot all American services. Contain Trump within his borders.




Behind the “elbows up” rhetoric, Carney’s increase in military spending will tie Canada closer to the U.S. One Canadian Army program will spend up to $500 million on U.S. equipment. Another major defence contract from last July included technical requirements that reduced candidates to just one U.S. company.


Understandable when some mods go down hard on people who break the unwritten rules.

Don’t let the media give the microphone to the “food professor” conman



I’m trying to become more consistent with that. He’s been a blight on the west coast for ages.


It would be funny if Trump attempted to hold the bag only for his plan to blow up in his face.


Buying from Sweden is the best option. Ditch american fascism and protect our borders.


While there are many unanswered questions on the military front, there is evidence that Saab’s public relations campaign in Canada has been successful.

According to an Ekos survey released last month, 43 per cent of Canadians want the federal government to acquire a fleet of Gripen fighters to replace its aging CF-18s, while 29 per cent are in favour of a mixed fleet made up of Gripens and American-built F-35s.

The option of a single fleet of F-35s was the least popular choice in the survey, at 13 per cent support.

Quebec and British Columbia are the two provinces where purchasing a fleet of F-35s is the least popular option (nine per cent), while the option is most popular in the Atlantic provinces (16 per cent) and in Alberta (18 per cent).

Support for a mixed fleet is strongest in Quebec at 35 per cent, while support for a fleet composed solely of Gripens peaked at 49 per cent in British Columbia.
