Gripen's sale to Canada would need US approval. The Gripen uses a General Electric engine.

Why, Canada is already an approved market for US tech?

In several surveys, the overwhelming first choice for what makes Canada unique is multiculturalism. This, in a world collapsing into stupid, impoverishing hatreds, is the distinctly Canadian national project.

To be honest I'm not sure how it works. I thought it was a case by case basis for ITAR. Anyways, I'm sure the US would find a gimmick to deny the import if they so chose.

Looking at the polls, I didn't think Quebec sovereignty was really back in force.  It seemed like it was exactly like it was for the last two decades: 35-40% popular support.

Now, with Melanie Joly talk of delivering Quebec into the hands of Donald Trump and a Liberal MP saying we're paving the way for an American invasion of Quebec, I feel like there's something I don't see.  Maybe popular support goes beyond these official numbers? 

The Liberals are in full panic mode, going on with their fearmongering tactics as usual while there's nothing out of the ordinary, except the PQ is seen as a viable alternative to the CAQ and is trying really hard to distract everyone's attention from any union related news to avoid people paying close attention to their links.
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

If Microsoft Excel decided to stop working overnight, the world would practically end.

Can you link the news stories where it is reported Joly and a Liberal MP said those things?
