I don't think the south bit has changed much if at all, has it? From 2017: More: more detailed profiles and maps available in the attachments here: https://pub-calgary.escribemeetings.com/Meeting.aspx?Id=cbf8472a-2b7f-420b-9ac7-e3a308214b1b&Agenda=PostMinutes&lang=English#49544

The USA is totally capable of producing more ships in that class. It will have trouble with the mythical 'golden fleet' ship of 14,000 tonnes displacement with a substantial arsenal of 2500 km+ range missiles.

Alberta contracted for Bitumen Royalty In Kind Barrels on Energy East to underpin the contract as a take or pay customer. Same on various versions of KXL. Energy East wouldn't have been launched if Alberta hadn't contracted. Energy East Keystone XL I'd expect a combination of that, plus an...

It really depends on what we want them to do. I don't see any need. In a pinch has plenty of capacity to bring along containerized box launchers, integrate it into the CMS 330, target cue from a data link with data from RadarSAT 3 or an Aurora or P8 and launch at a ship from 200+ km. When in the...

The corvette at least now is slated to have similar ice breaking capabilities as the DeWolfes, and if it is that, the same hull if not the same ship can play the light ice breaking role on the great lakes, st lawrence and gulf. As the navy and coast guard work more closely. Designing isn't...

No crossing arms. A couple of these:

I'm not sure the river is exactly ours to sell. We could sell the adapted design along with BAE I guess? I doubt the USA would want to build elsewhere, and they don't lack capacity for that size of vessel, nor do we have apparent capacity to build more.

This already exists in a well enough way. This is happening. A close to that is slowly happening. Its expensive and unless tolled, BC isn't rich enough to do a lot of it all at once, nor does traffic require it. Main goal is increasing reliability.

Will be interesting to see if that trails off now that TMX can supply much more of the volume that Washington State refiners want. Some of it could be market clearing: Sask light barrels not having a path west on pipelines.

I think we mostly agree, but the program has to be designed to fix Toronto and Vancouver, despite the refusal of local governments in BC and the local governments and province in Ontario to fix their major problems. Alberta is along for the ride and the only result is more freedom and even...

this is the exact opposite of the program design. Won't relitigate this here, but the number of units built in a given year doesn't demonstrate success or failure of regulatory reform.

It is a weird technicality, but it wasn't a request to the government nor a government decision not to fund. A committee of the legislature. The speaker would then directly recommend the spending to the legislature during supplemental estimates, not the government on behalf of the crown.

With most of the weight on the back, they don't foresee benefits from swapping the rear. Maybe some benefits from added control to the front wheels. Probably the largest single benefit of battery busses designed from the ground up will be better weight distribution dramatically improving...

The federal Liberals under Trudeau did exactly this.

Too much of a lift for the CIB in my opinion. Would need a special top up mechanism to bring interest rates even lower, or some mechanism where Canada covers the cost of unused capacity for a period of time

I still don’t understand why this project would potentially benefit. Were there problems with building CN Conrich we don’t know about?

This is going to be a gong show. I hear full on separatists (not just whatever the current crop are) are organizing to take over the party board.

making big investments in rail capacity is really hard, since they can be really lumpy. Finding the capacity for four more trains over the rockies a day is hard, if adding the capacity for them adds the capacity for 30 new trains a day. Who takes the risk between nutrients that only wants to pay...

Yes!
