Be interesting to see where this goes - I'm for nicking him and others of his ilk regardless of their ideology or political leanings

Why? They need assault vehicles no matter how inadequate and they make smaller UGVs anyway.

MBDA need competent competition. Fact is that Patriot is better than SAMPT, they have some incentive to improve it and its missile production rates.

I am quoting straight from the article and it's not a GOT quote, it's life. The F-35 won. I have no idea of your background, I worked in military aviation and defence for 20 years. I'm looking at this from that perspective I have the utmost contempt for Trump but 'nothing' is decided here.

I'm actually quoting the PM. We'll see what happens if and when it does. There is no "almost won" either, you win or lose. www.airdatanews.com/canada-to-ad...

Canada isn't going to be manufacturing it - statement “We have alternatives to the F-35 so we will explore those, as the ministers of defense and procurement will explore how the F 35 program could be adjusted, including greater investment here in Canada, greater production here in Canada,”
comment in response to post
Canada isn't cancelling its F-35s totally and they have an offer or more work in Canada from LM. They're reviewing the deal is all so don't get too excited

ITAR wasn't a big issue during the competition, it is now. Rafale least affected though there are still US items

This is short term stuff - very hard for the UK to untangle our relationships though, we're joined at the hip for intelligence and nuclear matters

Canada spent 18 billion dollars in Afghanistan. Should we send the bill to the felon, or directly to president musk?

And that's why he's blamed Ukraine for starting the war? That's why they're demanding this? apnews.com/article/un-r...

The other route to blocking this would be a veto by France or the UK. Both have proposed amendments which would kill the text for the Russians. US might take note. But both countries' leaders are in Washington this coming week & veto would be explosive. I am told France more "solid" than UK on this.

FWIW - IMO What's popular in society waxes and wanes, sometimes exceptional circumstances have an impact I've drank whisky since the mid 80s but my buying definitely spiked during lockdown, my drinking pattern didn't change. My buying has reset +Youngsters drink a lot less now and pubs closing
