The Canadian military leadership is close to their U.S. counterparts and is reluctant to shift its focus from America. Some retired Canadian Forces senior officers, such as former chief of the defence staff Gen. Rick Hillier, have voiced support for a Canada that is integrated more closely with the U.S. On Feb. 15, Hillier went on the social media website X to express his support for Canadian businessman Kevin O’Leary’s proposal for a common dollar, integrated border and immigration requirements with the U.S.
But retired Vice Admiral Mark Norman has warned that Canada is under attack from the Americans.
Norman argued in a Feb. 14 National Post column that Canada should not sit back and let the U.S. destroy the country. “This may need to include otherwise previously unthinkable actions such as shutting off our oil and gas, electrical power and critical supplies, as well as the abandonment of historic diplomatic and military relationships and commitments,” Norman pointed out.
They may also want to put some feelers out towards Australia. The previous conservative government dragged the country into a deal for US submarines that seemed to be more politically motivated than practical, and that’s looking more in doubt every day.
They screwed over France for that right? Not sure if SK would take the risk with a buyer who thongs, I mean flip flops like that.
Canada can make the same deal with France.
I just hope the manual is in English…
Eh, if there’s a usable French manual, we’ve got plenty of people who can translate it. (Korean not so much, maybe.)
Don’t worry, we’ll sell the sub to Québec so they can sell them again to the rest of Canada.
A French speaking person in Canada? Chance in a million surely.
How about them south Korean subs?
