Later as we came back into the Halifax side (dry dock), he said "and there is the other". Obviously as a master sea man (and tax payer), he was none to impressed.
Why does Canada have a sub?
Why don't they do something useful like expelling the arab muslim terrorists that fill their country?
Oh, I forgot, it's like all good man, like bong down and be a UBC sociology student and hang at the nude beach, cuz, like it's all good ya know.

--> Answer: Canadians have Subs so us Americans can tow them behind our nuclear powered ships with fishing string.
Britain could not believe her luck when we sold them. They were always junk. I do not think we used them much at all.
It is sad that people were hurt though. Canada should have done its research a lot better.
