Most likely, the Canadian Govt does not want the Brits to find the Chinese subs lurking in the Arctic.
It should be in partnership with the USA tell the Inbred Brits to pound sand.
Anything would have to be done in consultation with the First Nations.
Would we have to paint the subs orange?
Make the periscope/staff longer so the flag can be continuously flown half-staff?
Pronoun officer on board at all times?
The Brits have been poking around our neighbourhood as long as the Yanks and Russians have; they know we are weak and unable to defend ourselves; afraid we’ll let the Chinese in.
Hey, didn’t we just outfit our northern watchers new Tika 308 rifles? That should hold them off. I’d like to have one so don’t get me wrong, outstanding rifle. Love the laminate stock as well.
Canadian defense is a joke, no discredit to our northern rangers roving eyes, but the Turd is spending large on his prime concerns …. social welfare for “immigrants”, climate change goals, aid to foreign countries and new socks. We have no way to protect the north.
As for the CCP and other nations they have been snooping around for ions in Canada’s norther waters.

You’re a bigger joke bro
In what sense Achmed? Don’t be shy I’m a big boy and can handle the criticism.

Can’t build a pipeline, can’t open a mine, can’t eat in a restaurant without showing your papers, can’t raise the flag, can’t defend the Arctic. What a pathetic country.
Well said

The problem with Chinese subs – too many vegetables…
How exactly would Sox stop allies from poking around in the arctic?
What do you mean stop. He invited them in, that’s why he doesn’t want anybody else snooping around.
Let the Chinks, the Krauts, the Limeys, the Yanks, the Polacks, the Russkies and every other fucking race on the planet diddle their way through the arctic. It’s not like this pissant country can keep anyone from taking a dump wherever they want.
The Spawn wants PLA ships in the Arctic and he wants desperately to be Xi’s Cabin Boy…the dirty little nipper……
Good one. Guess who’s on top in that duo? He likes it that way I hear.

The Brits are geniuses when it comes to cuckistan. Sell them garbage submarines. Build aircraft carriers for less than the price of a stupid crappy frigate we’ll build. We’re still waiting for cf-18 replacement and will likely wait another 20 years. Yep out of all the Commonwealth Canada is basically the most retarded in a group of complete nincompoops.
Well there is New Zealand, if that makes you feel better.

When the nuclear submarine announcement was made Jackboot Jacinda took time off tramplingly the faces of her own people and stamped her feet in anger at Australia instead. Tried to claim that there was no way Australian submarines would ever be allowed in New Zealand waters.
Everyone else laughed. New Zealand has two ship capable of actual warfighting and 6 ASW aircraft. Push comes to shove and Australia (or anyone else for that matter) will drag their coat tails across New Zealand feet any time they want, cause short of putting the All Blacks into some canoes there is NO WAY New Zealand is going to stop us.
Si vis pacem, para bellum.
From the CBC story:
“In the late 1980s, the Conservative government of former prime minister Brian Mulroney proposed buying 12 nuclear-powered submarines with the goal of using them for Arctic defence. The end of the Cold War and subsequent defence cuts caused the plan to be shelved.”
That, and the pearl-clutching from pacifists. Unless and until there are fuel-cell or Stirling engine subs that can do a round trip, under ice, from Pacific or Atlantic ports to the high Arctic, nuclear subs are the only way to move around. But the Great and the Good can’t stand the thought of either clean electrical generation or defending our own territory.
The money Sock Puppet Bongo spent on COVID could have went a long way in the military.
And a much better investment.
