Biggest Expenditure in History
Steven Harper plans the biggest military expenditure in Canadian history for F-35 jets even though they can’t be used in the dark, a supposedly mandatory requirement since in the North, Canada is dark half the year. Given how Mulroney took envelopes of cash from Airbus, I find difficult to believe he did not teach his protégé Harper how it is done.
Just who are these jets needed to defend against? The country most likely to invade Canada is the USA, the designer of the F-35, desperate for our water, oil and minerals. The Americans will have even more technologically advanced jets than ours. Our white elephants won’t deter them, besides the Americans won’t even need to use their military to take us over; they can do it with lawyers, briefcases and NAFTA (North America Free Trade Agreement).
