gutting Canada's military

gutting Canada's military

Paul Martin's foolish election promise to create a 5000-member Peacekeeping Brigade is going to lead to the mothballing of all Canada's remaining destroyers, and a grounding of 1/4 of our CF-18 fighter jets, in order to free up the money to fulfill the campaign promise.

So in answer to Rand Simberg, no, I can't seriously imagine Ottawa using the army to stop Alberta secession - there won't be much of an army left to stop anything.
