You are missing the point. We don't have to fire on anyone to make claim to sovereinty, we just have to have the ability to do so.
That's the point.
And congoloese navy? Canada had a great navy and still has a good one, albeit very small. Our Frigates were world class and are still right up there in terms of the most advanced despite being 15 years old.
We should have a medium sized navy. Look at the fisheries for cripes sake.
