Item 9-D: Document recovered from captured CFB Borden
COMBAT ORDERS - 33CBG-D2149-BLACK
FOR IMMEDIATE DISSEMINATION - TOP SECRET
FEB 17 2025 :
• HRS
8710-DPM 2
ALCON
In accordance with the National Defense Act, and by the authority granted me at His Majesty's Pleasure, SUPREME COMMAND of all operational elements of the Canadian Armed Forces, irrespective of region, theater, or branch, is hereby transferred to the Commanding Officer of 33 Canadian Brigade Group EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY.
Should the commanding officer become unable to discharge their duties, authority shall pass without delay to the next senior officer of sound judgment who is to uphold these directives.
CO 33CBG is hereby ordered to immediately muster all remaining forces and rendezvous with friendly forces at grid
hereafter to be known as Location
from which the final phase of Operation
shall commence.
Let it be known that these directives are binding under the highest laws of our nation and in steadfast service to the Crown and Country.
Soldiers, our time has come. Victory is no longer our aim. It is a word that belongs to another time, another war. Our purpose now is endurance and attrition. Every hill, every forest, every stretch of frozen tundra will demand a toll from our foe. Our strength lies not in their defeat, but in ensuring their victory is a price too great to bear.
We all swore an oath: to defend this land, its people, and its spirit. That oath does not bend to circumstance, nor does it shatter under the weight of despair. Duty demands that we endure. Honour compels us to strike back. Though victory is no longer ours to grasp, we shall take from them the satisfaction of their triumph, and remind them with every drop of spilled blood that Canada will not die quietly.
We are, and will forever be, The True North, Strong and Free.
May God save Canada.
MGen. C.T. Sullivan

I liked this piece that I feel sort of counters your point from earlier about the NDP's primary failure being lack of ground game, but more relevant to this thread is this incredible excerpt perspectivesjournal.ca/ground-game-...

While the strategic plan for the 2025 federal election had been to run a "digital-first" campaign,staff confirmed that was, "never clearly defined or effectively implemented."

I think this supports your point? www.cca-reports.ca/wp-content/u... my concern is, basically, that no one is raising from a single vc, so that wouldn't really move the needle wrt vc reticence as a whole, but otoh maybe one strong lead investor could pull others into being more aggressive

$A large increase in VC funding occurred in 2021 in Canada, the United States, and globally (Figure 5.1). In Canada, this was preceded by a decline in funding in 2020 that was not as evident elsewhere in the world (CVCA, 2023). However, both Canadian and global levels of VC funding have appeared to stabilize at pre-2020 levels. WIPO found that Canada leads the world in both the number of VC deals received and the number of joint venture/strategic alliance deals from foreign and domestic sources as a percentage of GDP. However, the absolute amount of VC financing available in Canada has been as little as 5% of that of the United States. VC deals in the United States are also substantially larger than those in Canada—the United States routinely raises more than 10 times the amount as Canada with only twice as many deals. VC funds are typically specialized by investment stage, sector, or geography. These can include public sector funds, private funds (backed by financial institutions, corporations, family offices, or individuals), and corporate funds. Canada has shown significant capital invested in early and later investment stages in recent years (Figure 5.1a), with pre-seed and seed capital comprising only a small fraction of the total capital deployed. However, year over year, these catalytic investments made up a smaller fraction of total investments compared with global and U.S. levels. Likewise, Series C and mega rounds worth over $250 million made up over half of global investments each year compared with a more modest representation of “later stage” and “growth equity” investments in Canada.$
