And people wonder why people don't trust Liberal promises. Be careful Jagmeet.

Trudeau didn't really break his promise - the Liberal platform called for an open competition, not the sole source one Harper had for the F-35.

The reality is that Trudeau didn't have a choice - the two major European aircraft producers pulled out, and the Gripen isn't compatible with most of our allies. And after Boeing killed the C-Series, there was no way this government was going to buy the Super Hornet.

F-35 is pricy but it is the better platform. Also, we get proprietary access as this is not made for export. Our supply lines will be secure as a result and if we need more it will be cheaper as economies of scale kick in. The US has production lines 2nd to none.
