how many times in the CAF history have we maintained a numbers capability? less fighter jets, less trucks, less frigates. It is the wayI agree.
As of now, with the CDC being a fantasy that we are all dreaming about being reality, for us to go back to the year 2013 we have to wait until the year of 2045 at the earliest - 32yrs just to get back to 'even'. Talk about screwing the pooch in terms of managing our ability to be an independent sovereign country taken seriously by just about everyone.
In that time period, 2013 to 2045, our population will have grown by just under 33% and our GDP from 1.85$ trillion USD in 2013 to an estimate (based in AI), 4.4$ trillion USD in 2045.
like i said i am more concerned with our potential frigate gap and low point. The Halifax class will be retired from 42 yrs to 49 yrs in service with an average of 46 give or take. Is that possible or reasonable?
