I couldn’t agree more! Our 85 F18s and 14 Auroras came into service in the mid-1980s. The 12 Halifax-class frigates entered service in the early 1990s. Whatever works for the Army these days must be at least a decade old. And every one of these systems is starving for people to operate and maintain them.

It is delusional to think our current capabilities are anywhere near adequate to defend our 5000 km land border, much less the increasingly accessible arctic lands and waters. Literally we cannot ramp up in time to meet the need, but we have to try! Better late than never.

It will be decades, maybe centuries, before these areas burn again. Still, Canada is very big and mostly trees.

When you imagine the map proportionally squeezed from the sides at the top and squeezed down, the concentration of smoke becomes much worse.

Fifty percent of people are dumber than the average. Of course a much smaller percentage are REALLY effing dumb.
