It just IS NOT PROPER that some of the oldest antiques still sailing should be described by LIE-berals as front line Royal Cdn Navy craft!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And is it not a REMARKABLE TREND...............how many RCN Antiques CATCH FIRE on a regular basis????????????

Our Frigates are the same age and generation as those of the US Navy's and they are a generation newer in design that that still operating in the Royal Navy that are being retired by the Type 26s.

It ain't just Canada and it ain't just the Lie-berals.

Fire and accident is an occupational hazard of keeping a Navy at sea and ours roams the planet in recent years like it never has before.

They roam the earth doing everyone's bidding but Canada's.

Our politicians have decided that being in charge of an armed forces is too hard. They now delegate the task to nato the un and whoever else they can find.

They arent sailing around the world for our benefit

Quite the opposite. All these multi nat deployments have rendered Canada all but undefended. National Defense is passe.

There s nothing new about that. I served on three ships that were older than I was back in the 1970s. It's not a Canadian phenomenon, either. USS Nimitz is 44 years old and six of the ten Nimitz Class carriers are older than our Frigates ... as is a good part of the Royal Navy and a good part of the rest of the US surface and submarine fleet. Most of the Russian Navy is seriously antiquated and Russian flotillas do not sail without a tugboat in their convoy ... for real, no joke.

I just checked out your claim and have found you to be ...


WRONG


Do you ever get tired of being taught about Canada by an American? You know absolutely nothing of your history and clearly you do not know anything about your Navy.

Maybe you should read the newspapers some time and learn something Curious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



There are people out there who own cars with a million miles on them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And HOW CAN they achieve such mileage?????????????????/


They DO MAINTENANCE AS NECESSARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


This is in SHARP CONTRAST to our Cnd military that routinely cobbles semi serviceable units by cannibalizing other relics!!!!!!!!!!


Buying NEW PARTS as needed means getting MORE RELIABLE machinery!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Parts that are in a wrecking yard are generally there for a reason!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


On the plus side- when NATO tank crews have their competitions -the Cdn crews can remove and replace an entire tank engine faster than anybody else on the planet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Thanks to LIE-berals - Cdn military has FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE keeping wrecks moving!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe, you should stay more current.

The entire fleet of Frigates is cycling through the $4.2 Bil. FELEX refit that gives them upgraded weapons, sensor suites and new computers, etc. all around. This has been going on for a couple of years and one by one, they are getting their new kit (and new helicopters).
