Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's bad luck with planes continues.

He was forced to use a back-up aircraft Monday to ferry him to London for a NATO summit because the usual prime ministerial jet was damaged in a hangar accident last month.

But after he got to London, the Royal Canadian Air Force discovered a problem with one of the engines on the backup plane during a post-flight inspection.

The RCAF says that plane, a CC-150 Polaris, is being repaired but is temporarily "unserviceable."

So, the RCAF has commandeered another CC-150 Polaris — which was in Italy with Gov. Gen. Julie Payette, who has been on a European tour of her own — to take Trudeau, his entourage and accompanying media back to Ottawa.

The Airbus CC-150 Polaris is the designation for the civilian Airbus A310-300s which have been converted for use as the primary long distance transport aircraft and mid-air refueler for the Royal Canadian Air Force.

Trump could offer to let him hitch a ride on Air Force One since all his airplanes were broken down.

I bet that is why Trump left early — he did not want to have to offer Trudeau a ride on AF1

Canadians rename U.S. equipment with C designations.

It gets ridiculous after awhile.

Rifles, planes, helicopters, “CF-16s,” etc.

It’s a pride thing.

Maybe the President will give him a lift in Air Force One. That way he can get an idea of what it's like to be newsworthy and relevant.

Maybe he'll even get a quick peek at "the football".

Trump should offer the ride home as long as he serves him as a porter. (Yes, I went there.)

Canada, albeit brainwashed, is still a country. I needn’t remind you of the man/child you just endured for eight long, painful years.

That shitbag Trudeau should try flying back to Canuckistan on a Sea King helicopter for a guaranteed dunk in the Atlantic Ocean.
