The Future of the F-35 Italy cuts back

The thing is, is we buy enough Rafales from the French, they just might throw-in an aircraft carrier to sweeten the deal.  40 wants an aircraft carrier!!

Our serious intentions to protect our sovereignity and Northern Coast would be taken a lot more seriously. Fuck, Nova Scotia's population would double when a carrier came to port.

And think what THAT would do to the local sex trade economy.  It's win-win!

I thought Canada already had an aircraft carrier?

What on earth would you guys do with an aircraft carrier?  Send it on a worldwide Apology Tour?

They can't. Obama is still our president.

They could bring some friends to ride on ours, though.

You say that like it's a bad thing!

We need more of our sailors (of both sexes) sampling the trim in foreign ports.  I can't think of a better floating bus than a carrier.

We're always hitching a ride with y'all.  We need to start pulling our own freight.

Good idea!

but I was thinking it would be a great venue for our politicians to proclaim mutiple mission accomplished statements

The only thing is that if the French toss-in a carrier on the deal, we'd need to let if air-out for a couple of months to get the tobacco & BO smell out!

I wonder what the hell it would take to run one of those things? Cost and personale wise

We could always tow it around with some supertugs ..... like a semi-mobile airfield

[Centurion40]

We could even put a roller coaster on the flight deck and charge admission!
