Well the Prime Ministers plane is pretty much a flying piece of crap with no replacement options for probably another decade.
We probably have the only leader in the world that can't keep up to date on the news, nor communicate with his cabinet when he's in the air

The plane also has spotty communications technology – no television, limited and spotty Wi-Fi, and only one phone. In comparison, the United States’ Air Force One has a miniature Oval Office, a situation room, excellent Internet access and live TV. The U.S. has already contracted Boeing to replace Air Force One, at a cost of US$3.9 billion for two new 747s.
The plane’s relatively outdated features weren’t lost on Trudeau when he toured Ronald Reagan’s 1980s-era U.S. presidential plane, which sits in a museum, according to a source.
Trudeau noted that Reagan had better communications capabilities then than than he does no
