The stated foreign policy of Canada seems to disagree with you lol. You happen to see no value in European involvement haha. Ships and planes cant hold ground, no matter how many times we try to rehash that fallacy.
So the Canadian Marine Regiment then? copied off the Dutch Marines perhaps?
And if you cannot control the sea lines of communication then your army languishes without supplies.
110%. Almost like all three services complement each other
It isn't an either/or debate. The last time Canada considered seaborne operations was the CAST combat group and that basically soured DND on the concept. Afghanistan was supplied by an air bridge and IMHO you can't rely on that for MCO in Europe. So yeah. You need sea lanes and a system to make use of them. Canada doesn't have a system because logistics is left as an afterthought until the point where it becomes a problem. Neither the army nor the navy is putting any effort into developing a seal lane logistics system.
