Bring back the Avro Arrow.
Maybe some F-22's?..................
Trudeau will endeavour to buy whatever Charles DeGaulle flew.
He will gut the military and use the money for Welfare.
but it’s good news for Syrians ,he wants to bring in tons , he compares them to the Boat People ,the people that came to Canada before he was born . Oh ,and he better keep his hands off my Guns
In that case, he should just buy some old F-4 Phantoms and put a 1.5 G operational limit on them. There are very, very few aircraft that have the range to attack Canada from Europe or Asia and none of them are fighters. F-104s and F-106s are also good options. Not a lot of training will be required, so he can have them haul the mail as well.
I'll give Canada 20 years before it follows NZ and decides that it doesn't need a military at all. The evil U.S. will protect them.
Liberals and especially the Trudeaus Hate the Military
I don’t agree with JT (can’t even type his name) about much, but this is one positive that can result from the election. The F-35 is not the plane for Canada. Buy Super Hornets instead. They will be adequate to protect North American airspace.
It will cause some disturbance in the force, but it's Canada's decision. They voted for this government.
But the real story here is the purported "open competition"...this means years of competition, arguing, bickering, bribing, etc. before a decision is ever arrived at, let alone taking delivery of new aircraft. In the meantime, Canada's military capability continues to degrade.
The guy is a socialist through and through...talk is cheap and that is about all socialists do when it comes to defense.
Godspeed good, conservative Canadians...I wish you the best in enduring the next few years.

All of Trudeau’s promissory budget is committed to buying colored glass beads for Canadians. There will be no money used for Canada’s defence. Putin loves Trudeau and is preparing to walk in through Canada’s Northern gateway.

not to take this off topic, but Trudeau also has made it clear he is going for global warming regulations big time- Canadians will find out very quickly what a terrible mistake they made at the polls when their bills skyrocket for everything-
Enjoy your newly elected Canada
Now back to the discussion at hand-
The most pressing bad news for the F-35 would be the F-35 itself.
