We just sent two lightly armed Kingston Class Coastal defense boats for the NATO Baltic sea operation.

This is a blue water mission, something that these vessels are not made for. They have no real offensive capability, carrying a couple of machine guns and a limited mine detecting capability. These are mainly used for Reserve training missions.
We had to skip the NATO air exercise, because our air fleet is basically up on bricks. Supposedly all of our 12 Halifax frigates are active right now, with Montreal and Fredericton on deployment missions. |
It just seems like Canada has accepted that we're an American protectorate and decided that since that's the case we should spend money on things other than the military.
