Yep, I agree with you. Here in Canada our navy has taken to naming ships after cities but I'd love to see a fleet with names like Joseph Brant, Tecumseh, Billy Bishop, Guy Simmonds etc.

Tecumseh,

Why would they name a boat after a snowblower engine maker? Are they that well respected up there?

You forgot the great American patriots, Crazy Horse, Sitting Bull, Chief Joseph and Osceola.
