National tenant in new development ‘will only enhance this area'
Prep work is underway to get the property directly behind Home Depot on Windsor's east end on Tecumseh Road transformed into the new home of a major retailer. 'We gotta wait 'til the right time to say who and when,' said City Councillor Gary Kaschak, when asked if Costco is the major tenant. The company has been the long rumoured retailer expected to be part of this new development on the city's east end, but no confirmation from the company, the city or developer, Rocco Tullio and Rock Development. 'The tenants, you know, they make their own timelines and decisions as to when they want to make the announcement,' said Tullio, who points this will enhance the area and attract people from surrounding municipalities. Once the project is complete, he says there will be room at the back end of the 33-acre property for a additional tenants. 'It's just going to jumpstart this whole development, which is going to be great for the city of Windsor and people out in the east end,' Tullio said. Roads are being created on the east and west side of the property, and with them, Tullio says, comes the opportunity for the surrounding area to be developed. 'The Serbian lands have ten acres. There's other people from Toronto that own land and so when it's all developed, there's about 90 acres. You're talking about a million square feet, a million two square feet,' Tullio said. 'We're going to have something similar to the Walker Road corridor,' said Kaschak. 'I think, with many, many big box stores, lots of action, which should create lots of growth, lots of density and lots of taxes towards the city of Windsor.' Tullio says national retailers have shown significant interest in this area of Windsor. 'Now that the construction has started. You know, these nationals and all that. Hey, the city's open for business. This is a great node to be part of and, you know, I'm excited to see what the future holds for this development.'

Major projects bill expected to pass before MPs leave for the summer
Article content It also tabled C-4, the Making Life More Affordable for Canadians Act, which includes some of the government's campaign promises on affordability like a middle-class tax cut and removal of the GST on new homes for first-time homebuyers. However, the bill has been criticized as it also seeks to exempt federal political parties from modern privacy laws. Unlike the major projects bill, C-2 and C-4 were not fast-tracked, meaning that they will continue to make their way through the legislative process during the fall sitting. Interestingly, the first legislation to pass all stages in this new Parliament was not a government bill. Last week, MPs unanimously approved C-202, a Bloc bill to protect the supply management system which regulates the price and production of dairy, poultry and eggs, from future trade deals. That same bill was stalled in the Senate in the last legislature and ended up dying on the order paper when the election was called. This time, the Senate approved C-202 on division, and it is now awaiting royal assent.

RTX's Arm Secures $300M Contract for ESSM Block II Missile Assemblies
RTX Corporation 's RTX business segment, Raytheon, recently secured a $299.7 million modification contract involving the Evolved Seasparrow Missile (ESSM). Per the terms of the deal, RTX will provide test equipment and spares, as well as exercise options for ESSM Block 2 guided missile assemblies. Details of RTX's Deal The work related to this contract will be executed in multiple locations globally, including the United States, Australia, Canada, Norway, the Netherlands and a few other nations. This contract is projected to be completed by September 2030. The award has been provided by the Naval Sea Systems Command, Washington, D.C. What's Favoring RTX? With countries worldwide enhancing their defense capabilities, spending on advanced military arms and ammunition has been rapidly increasing lately. This includes growing investments in missiles and missile systems, which are essential for modern warfare. RTX, as a prominent manufacturer of missile systems, has thus been witnessing a steady flow of orders from the Pentagon and other U.S. allies. The recent contract is an example of that. RTX's ESSM Block II is a versatile, combat-proven naval defense system with more than 330 successful live sea firings. Offering enhanced performance over Block I, it strengthens fleet protection against diverse threats. These advanced features likely drive its growing demand, reflected in the latest contract win. RTX's Growth Prospects Rising military conflicts, terrorism and border disputes have led nations to increase their focus on national security, particularly on missile defense systems in recent times, backed by the rapid development of advanced missile technologies over the last decade. This is likely to have prompted the Mordor Intelligence firm to forecast a compound annual growth rate of 5% for the global missiles and missile defense systems market during the 2025-2030 time period. Such strong growth projections indicate solid opportunities for RTX, which has a handful of combat-proven missiles in its product portfolio, like the TOW missile, Guidance Enhanced Missile, Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missile, Tomahawk, Standard Missile 2 and a few more, in addition to the ESSM. Opportunities for Other Defense Stocks Other defense companies that are likely to enjoy the perks of the expanding missiles and missile system market have been discussed below: Northrop Grumman NOC: Northrop Grumman provides high-speed, long-range strike weapons like the AARGM-ER, which is a supersonic, air-launched tactical missile system. It also builds advanced missile defense technology, ranging from command systems to directed energy weapons, advanced munitions and powerful sensors. The company's long-term (three to five years) earnings growth rate is 3.3%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for NOC's 2025 sales indicates year-over-year growth of 2.8%. The Boeing Company BA: It manufactures various missile defense systems, including the Ground-based Midcourse Defense, Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense and Avenger. Boeing-built missile defense systems have been protecting its customers for nearly 25 years against threats ranging from intercontinental ballistic missiles to hostile aircraft. The company has a long-term earnings growth rate of 18.1%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for BA's 2025 sales indicates year-over-year growth of 25.6%. Lockheed Martin LMT: Lockheed Martin's missile defense program includes the Patriot Advanced Capability-3 and Terminal High-Altitude Area Defense air and missile defense programs. It also manufactures the Multiple Launch Rocket System, the Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile and Javelin tactical missiles. The company has a long-term earnings growth rate of 10.5%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for LMT's 2025 sales indicates year-over-year growth of 4.7%.
