Canada's tanks

[Colin Parkinson]

I would say you are historically correct

Back when Canadian's where primarily settled by Europeans I would agree with you -- however now a lot of emigres have come from Asia - and will demand that Canada look towards there as well.

I think that it is the easiest effort for the CAF - and unless you guys want to jump into Amphibious Operations, and Carrier Based Naval Aviation - I tend to see the Pacific as a second runner to Europe for Canada (and I can't see Canada being willing to pony up a few hundred B a year CAF budget to get the tools needed to go play credibly in the Pacific)

A fleet of KS-III Batch 2 subs with loaded VLS tubes would be a much appreciated addition to any Pacific operation.

"No one is going to give a shit about a Canadian Battalion or Squadron. Heck putting a Division toward the Pacific theatre isn't a flex these days either."

Maybe the "big ol USA" wouldn't give a shit but I'm sure there's many countries who would welcome a Canadian Battalion etc. I'm sure they would find a way to deploy.
