| Every government cancels something, or have you forgotten about the helicopters Chretien cancelled? Different sides of the same coin. The BIG difference between Diefenbaker's cancellation of the Arrow, and Chretien's of the helicopters though, was that Dief cancelled a home-grown project, with all ... |

| Putting an end to a waste cannot be a scandalous cancellation. You will have to define "waste".....Bombardier is still collecting from the feds, regardless of party in power. As are the oil companies, all ready making record profits. And if you think the Arrow was a waste then you surely ... |

| We're going to have to rely indefinitely on a 50-year old reactor for the supply of medical isotopes following the cancellation of the MAPLE programme - this after 500 million has been invested in it - memories of the Arrow, anyone? How much of a "coincidence" can it be that every time a ... |

| times 3... why? She answered wrong twice, not 3 times :twisted: It appears the rules of the game are quite arbitrary. The woman arrived at 51 twice. I would therefore conclude that her math path is beyond those of us discussing this topic here. While mine might not be what she envisaged, it is one ... |

So she DOES get the GPS! |

| x+y-y would equal x, but x-y+y would be x-2y All this does is beg the question: which operation is performed first, addition or subtraction? IT'S THE SAME OPERATION! Subtraction is just addition of a negative number. x+y-y is (x)+(y)+(-y) x-y+y is (x)+(-y)+(y) No matter which addition you do first,... |
