At a certain price, I hope the government would say, "Sorry, that's just too expensive," and look at the next best alternative. The F-35 may be the
best fighter available to Canada, but it's not the
only option. We have to be fiscally prudent and can't just commit to buy these planes at any cost because we "need" this particular model of aircraft.
Would you still say we "need" them if the price went up to $50B? $100B? Hopefully that won't happen, but you have to draw the line somewhere.
