No, I think it's clear that given the financial situation we're in right now, there are going to have to be significant reductions to defence spending if we're to maintain other priority areas of government spending. The Canada First defence strategy is in essential need of review. The fact that this capability has been written into the defence strategy demands that we re-look at this strategy that's requiring us to buy an F-35 aircraft.
I don't think the expense is warranted. There are many other cheaper aircraft out there that could perform just as well as, if not better than, the F-35 is advertised to be, and could provide capability equal to our CF-18s.
