He's a lot of hot air coming out of a head filled with misinformation. But, I'll bet he wants the US to have a 15 carrier navy.

@beckyromero I'll bet he thinks The Dominion of Canada should have a 4 carrier Royal Navy.

Canada's last aircraft carrier, HMCS [i]Bonaventure[/i]
If China has one, why can't Canada?

@beckyromero That's a bullshit carrier. France's Charles DeGualle and the UK's Queen Elizabeth II put that little thing to shame.

@beckyromero Canada is about to get out of the defense business altogether. Justhin has determined it is too big an expense. No more fighter planes for the air force.

@hippyjoe1955 It's a smart move. Why pay for a military when everyone knows the US will defend them.

[i]Bonaventure[/i] was a [i]Majestic[/i]-class aircraft launched in 1945 by the British and later turned over to Canada when completed in 1957 after construction had been halted after the end of World War II.

Canada needs to defend its northern border.
And we should recognize the Northwest Passage as Canada's territorial waters.

@beckyromero NORAD and NORCOM protect its northern border.

Canada also needs, say, about a dozen nuclear-powered submarines to patrol the Arctic.
Putin has been greatly expanding Russian military presence in the Arctic.

US allies want to spend more time practicing to hunt Russian and Chinese subs, top Navy admiral says
[quote]US allies and partners want to spend more time training with the US to hunt Russian and Chinese submarines, the US Navy's top officer said Wednesday.
Asked about what kinds of operations offered the best opportunities to work with other navies, Adm. Michael Gilday, chief of US naval operations, told a virtual audience at the West 2021 conference that many of those forces want to focus more on anti-submarine warfare.
"Probably at least once a week I'm talking with a key ally or partner," Gilday said. "What I'm seeing is a very high interest in not just talking about some of the more consequential missions that we have — let's say, anti-submarine warfare against an advancing threat, not only from Russia but also from China."[/quote]

Canadian nuclear-submarines would help meet the threat from Russia.
