I mean yeah, those days are gone and they're not coming back.

I don't think there was any "tradition" to it - it was just the dominant model at the time, and is now on its last legs.

Oh, that's a rare treat - you don't see full transcripts very often.

I suppose it will be 46 when all is said and done.

He elaborates a bit that is a thin margin, but he loves the hell out of DS9.

The interviewer has seen the first episode and says it's real good, and Giamatti says episode six is a highlight.

It looks like the Global 6500 is a new/in-development plane, but it's a business jet, which is one of the few things Bombardier seems to do well. Hopefully they won't make a mess of it.

 

The longtime Conservative, who served in provincial politics before being elected to the House of Commons in 2019, said Canada's challenges demand people lead "not with complaint" — a thinly veiled swipe at Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre — "but with confidence in a strong future."
