Honestly the Canadians should have spent the money on replacements on their Sea King helicopter fleet.
Israel is considerably smaller than Canada, but has a number of submarines, Iran has three former Soviet Kilo class submarines.

Doesn't hurt to have a few extra subs to throw around the pacific, atlantic and artic ocean. Part of that might have to do with keeping up with some NORAD deal. But it would be even better if the fucking subs weren't pieces of shit that where purchased from the British Navy because they qualified it as junk. Better yet if none of our men died during the fucking thing's maiden voyage.
Yes, the money would have been better spent on choppers. Fucking seakings are too old. That being said, I think the Prime Minister has already released the cash for that and manufacturers are bidding on the contract at the moment.
For fuck's sake, West Edmonton Mall has 3 fully functional subs for kids to play with. I don't even think the Canadian Navy has that. I think it's time we defend more than a mall's foodcourt with subs.
