Right now today, if Canada ended up deploying to a European war . . . we'd probably plant 3/4 of those men and woman on day 1.

We have a non functioning airforce, a navy that can't deploy effectively. Most of our equipment has been ravaged by time. We have no air defenses for the battle field at all.

We have very few functioning tanks, I think our armoured vehicle stock is a bit better. We would have to raid the secretarial pool to fill out understrength formations. We have way to many officers, not enough NCO, and most of those officers probably couldn't lead a cat to a bowl of milk.

At least our subs can submerge, just don't ask them to surface again.
