Canadas old Soviet system which demands hundreds of billions for the S.I.C to enforce the caste simply can't afford new products, nor innovation.

From the RCMP on down, THIS is Canada. If America keeps bending their knee Canada will gladly keep allowing you to.

Remember, Ontario is going to be bankrupt first, how will America handle that?


MONTREAL — Each morning, travellers and cargo take off from Montreal’s Trudeau airport for a 1,600-kilometre flight to Puvirnituq in northern Quebec aboard a nearly 50-year-old Air Inuit plane.


This seasoned Boeing 737 previously cruised the skies above Europe and Central Africa for now-defunct carriers in France, Gabon and the Congo. But now its trips are all-Canadian, shuttling people, food and building materials between the country’s second-biggest city and a village of 2,100.

The aging aircraft is no outlier in Canada, which plays host to more old jets deployed for passenger service than any other country. Their age can pose challenges for maintenance and fuel efficiency, while others question the safety of second-hand haulers, but operators say they are ideally suited for commercial flights to remote destinations.


Thirteen of the 30 oldest jets in the world carrying travellers on scheduled or charter routes are operating in Canada, according to figures from ch-aviation, an industry data provider. All 13 are Boeing 737-200s between 42 and 52 years old.


Venezuela is the runner-up, with six jets in the top 30. The United States notches three.
