The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

[Good2Golf]

They also:

• Committed to the F-35
• Purchased Leopard 2 tanks
• Purchased G-Wagons
• Purchased M777 howitzers
• Purchased Chinook helicopters
• Purchased C-17s
• Purchased C-130Js
• Launched the National Shipbuilding Strategy

The LPC, meanwhile, spent years wavering on the fighter replacement and ultimately bought us some used aircraft from Australia. Super cool.

Oh, and they made a lot of announcements.

I understand we all have our own biases, and we all enjoy a bit of whataboutism from time to time. I just thought I'd join in the fun.

All of which I agree have benefited the CAF, however, none of them support an assertion by some that only the Liberals have cut CAF capability. Anyone who supports that position (only Liberals cut CAF) is beyond ‘biased.’

One additional point in you list…F-35.

By ‘committed’ do you mean ‘signed just one of the three JSF MOUs signed by the GoC and then who kicked the actual procurement decision down the road to the Liberals’ type of commitment?

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind a good Liberal slagging, especially to the Orangey-Red variant, but I will not shy from pointing out that the Conservatives aren’t angels pure as the driven snow…
