Still gotta ask what made the Canadian Armed Forces think a boat no longer good enough for Brisish sailers would be good enough For Canadians.

Granted every navy gets rid of old equipment to third world countries, but for what the Canadians paid they could have gotten a NEW boat from Sweden or Germany.

British ministers have revealed that they are considering charging the Canadians a six-figure sum

If that's a Canadian six-figure sum, that's like . . . ummmm . . . $49.95 in real money.
