Still a coward to go with the F35, the F35 is a disaster of a bloated weapons program Canada should have steered far clear of.
I heard in February that the government paid for some parts so that essentially they have the place in line if they decide to get it, but it could be spare parts if we go with the mixed Saab fleet.
Was there more recent news toward an ultimate decision on that which I missed?
I had it in my mind Canada had already effectively decided on the F35 for some reason, maybe Canada is just giving off strong “we haven’t decided yet but we all know the choice we will make” vibes and it brainwormed me.
Too late tho for Carney, ship sailed a long time ago. Tbf, Canada gets at least half the expense back as economic benefits back in Canada.
Harpo and Trudeau pumped billions into that loser.
