Wait, Canada has a warship…?

We even had an aircraft carrier for a while 🥲

The Halifax-class is a bit on the small side but not a bad ship. Its replacement will be a massive improvement though (slated for the 2030s)

Fun History Fact!

While the Royal Canadian Navy began WW2 with only 13 ships, by the end of the war it had 1,140 surface ships listed as having been in service giving it the third largest navy in the world!

Yes, but they got rid of the submarines in the West Edmonton Mall.

Yeah, well it’s the Taiwan Strait, not the “CCP gets to control everything that goes through it” Strait.

Oh yeah well the CCP drew lines on a map which, like Trump’s sharpie-edited hurricane map, is incontrovertible evidence that what they say is correct.

Attack the candians and learn that the red maple leaf is not red because of autumn.

As a Canadian I would love to see a chinese ship getting pelted with a volley of supersonic hockey pucks and maple syrup containers.

If US is being serious, it should establish a military base in Taiwan – unless US just treat TW as the next Ukraine.

Note the fact that US never grant TW statehood nor independence. Taiwan is the only pitiful political entity in first island chain that has no US military base, the cost of which TW will be happily to pay.

TW has been buying US weaponry since WWII. But most purchases delayed, outdated or undelivered.

Get fucked China. Just keep crying about your “wolf diplomacy” not working. You took the mask off years ago, now let it sink in that we’re not going to listen to your crying anymore, because you’ve shown the whole world that you want to play by your own rules and refuse to act in good faith.
