Converting to a nuclear navy would be extremely expensive and take a long time, and we would have to change how we build up our navy recruiting. We have enough trouble buying pistols and sleeping bags, Canada running nuclear submarines for example would almost be beyond our capabilities.
Canada does need to explore modern subs with Air independent systems as part of the defense of the arctic. Because Canada's navy is built around frigates on the surface fleet, its not conducive to a nuclear propulsion strategy.
