    Not for nothing, but there’s no quote threatening to fly into Canadian airspace if these jets don’t get bought. Only a statement that if Canada doesn’t buy them, another use will have to be found. Which is of course what would happen - they aren’t going to just park these things. Even looking at it as a veiled threat, it’s pretty vague.

    I’m not sure what Lockheed expects when the cost has gone up nearly 50% in three years. I wish Saab good fortune making domestic alternatives.

    Canadians! You can buy your transient freedoms for another 10 minutes. Subscription freedom from tyranny sounds like a great idea if you’re a Nazi or Nazi sympathiser

    Which fighter jets? Are they reasonably priced?

    Maybe we could take those ones and let the US have the F-35s.

    Ambassador Pete Hoekstra

    This joke of a man does not need to be listened to. Kick him out of Canada because he’s a waste of resources.

    Just tell him we want the latest F-47 and would wait for that to come before committing to older models. By that time maybe his blood clots will do there work.
