    Perhaps some day when this Polital storm settles down, I'll buy you a beer. But not a BUD Light, I know how you all feel about that brand. How about a Molson Canadian. You know, something a bit stronger than bottled water.

      I understand that Mark Carney has ordered a review, and is considering an alternate purchase from the EU. The concern is that the USA could potentially limit maintenance parts and Canada does not trust the current administration.

        It's all good. One last question, if you could only have one of the following, which would it be.


        a.) free health care.

        b.) Strong national defense.

        Which would do you think Ukrainians would choose?

In Canada the Liberals givith and the Conservetives taketh away. To put this a different way the liberals run up the debt and the Conservetives are mean heartless bastards that cut till it hurts and cut again. I'm for responsible leadership with a heart.

          This isn't actually accurate. Both parties create debt. One, the conservatives create it by giving tax breaks to their favourite people. The ultra wealthy. Two, the Liberals create it by attempting to rebuild the economy after the conservatives trash it. And also by having robust social programs.

            They could also potentially control the aircraft remotely as they refuse to give buyers access to the software.
            There is zero reasons to trust the current regime in the White House.

              This isn't actually accurate. The only reason liberal countries have social programs is they don't properly fund their military and rely on the USA. You know that better than anyone.

                The United States spends significantly more per capita on healthcare than Canada, with US spending at $12,555 in 2022, while Canada spent $6,319. I see no reason why not have both and take the extra six grand to enhance national defense. Americans could cut their health care costs in half AND avoid the possibility of anyone going bankrupt due to medical debt. The Consumer Bankruptcy Project (CBP) estimates that about 530,000 medical bankruptcies occur annually. Imagine a Country that cares about its citizens.

                  You didn't answer and I know why.

                  Give me and example of a country that has strong military and free healthcare?

                      No country has free healthcare.

                              Okay, how about Ukraine? Ukraine has a system that aims for universal healthcare, with all citizens and permanent residents constitutionally guaranteed free and effective healthcare. The Program of Medical Guarantees ensures that all citizens can access essential health services while strengthening protection against financial burden. I can't think of anyone more bad ass than the Ukrainians.
