“For six long years the Canadian navy was one of the principal contenders in what was to be known as the Battle of the Atlantic. Beginning the war with a mere 13 vessels and 3,000 men, the Royal Canadian Navy ended it with 373 fighting ships and over 90,000 men.”

No more Navy - and they want to defend the NW Passage???
They have raided the defence budget to the point there is nothing left, and they still need more for health care, human rights tribunals and their vast Gov’t bureaucracy.

Muslim immigrants to Canada now can claim four wives and also collect four welfare checks from the government. This could be part of the problem...

Iran has two submarines.
At least Canada has more subs than the Republic of the Congo.

The other subs are being used to ice down beer and become cans for moose meat.

Bingo.
And what do you think is going to happen to the U.S. military, once Obama and his comrades come to power?
