>In April, 2024, the National Post reported that the competition for the new fighter jet was rigged right from the beginning to select the Lockheed Martin F-35.
>DND stated in a news release that the investigation began in 2024 and “focused on the unauthorized disclosure of safeguarded information to a Foreign Entity.” The department did not name the foreign entity, nor did it provide further information.
Is someone in the RCAF taking money (or offers of a future job) from Lockheed Martin and/or the US?
Many in the RCAF are cozy with their US counterparts and seem incapable of imagining a world where they are anything other than America’s wingman:

Just get the god damn Gripen already but still retain the 16 or so F-16’s for task specific deployments. But for day to day activities the Gripen is cheaper and more reliable.
Man, if we buy an obsolete aircraft and force the RCAF to have a dual jet fleet with all the training and sims, parts, and support, and building a second OTU with our present compliment of apx 100 jet pilots, it is the end of the pilot trade. Thank you liberals for giving us a display only military.
This is why we can never have a real foreign agent registry, because it would reveal just how much of the Canadian establishment are betraying their country to the Americans.
The problem, imo, is that Canadians never seem to have an honest conversation about our actual security priorities, vs. the defense establishment’s priorities.
They want us to be a good little colony, ready to deploy in support of the American hegemon as they project power around the world. Is that what Canadians want? Or do Canadians (as I do) think the Americans are the much bigger threat than anything the Chinese or Russians could ever do?
