mackay's very awesome airlift

In early 2013, the Canadian Forces (CF) starting charging municipalities and provinces for help in 'emergencies such as floods and wildfires, according to internal Defence Department documents.'

Red River in Manitoba - troops

Alida, in southeast Saskatchewan - troops

southern Alberta - troops
MacKay’s briefing note says that while the Canadian Forces mandate is to defend Canada and help exercise its sovereignty, assistance in the case of an emergency “should be viewed as a ‘force of last resort,’ to be requested only when all other civilian options and assets have been exhausted.” source

Except for fishing trips. In other news, January 2012, 14-year-old Burton Winters walked 19 kilometres before he froze to death in Newfoundland. It was a search start delay of 36 hours and a full night.

f-35 saga {new KPMG version}

The Opposition said the numbers weren't right. The Auditor General said the numbers weren't right. The Parliamentary Budget Officer said the numbers weren't right. A US report and Canadian critics said untendered, single engine jets were'n't right. So CPC hireds KPMG, who also said the numbers weren't right.

open letter to rona ambrose@encanada

Yo.

I would have written the other environment minister (desert storm scud stud, Afghanistan reporter, Arthur Kent, oops that's his brother, Peter Kent), but since you babbled about Kyoto, novels, HappyOil (2006-07) and got this timbits tarball rolling and P. Kent babbles about finishing it or is it the 'engine' of the North American economy! (oops, that's the new provincial Minister of Energy, Ken Hughes), and now another artist is not very happy.

wow, multi-billion dollar buttons! - Ambrose, Clement, MacKay
And besides, you are Canada's new limousine winner! *$40,000* That Tony Clement is funny. I liked what he said about MP limos. "We work long hours for Encana Canadians."

Weird. Three departments refused to provide details on drivers' overtime citing privacy reasons: Environment Canada, Public Safety Canada and the Privy Council Office.

However, documents show that out of 35 flights, only nine were for repatriation ceremonies. In fact, many of the flights were for press conferences and political announcements. article
"Peace Tower flag won't be lowered for military deaths," April 24, 2006
In 2006: The Conservative government says from now on the flag atop the Peace Tower in Ottawa will not be lowered to half-mast in honour of fallen Canadian soldiers... For more than 80 years Canada honoured its war dead by lowering flags on federal buildings on Remembrance Day. Former prime minister Jean Chrétien changed that in April 2002, when 4 Canadian soldiers were killed by U.S. bombs in Afghanistan. article
