It may provoke Trump, but Canada should cancel the purchase of F-35 fighter jets from the U.S.

As should europe. Clearly you can't trust the USA anymore. What is the long-term prospect for spare parts?
From what I've heard you need a password that changes on the daily to start a F-35 and that the US are the only ones that can provide it. If that is true, it's a tremendous oversite for any sovereign state.
There's no way that's true, right?
and could we ever trust Canada or Europe? doubt it duh
Where do your doubts come from? Please be specific.
Idiot moron piece of shit retard. Go give Putin a footmassage and the keys to your house you bootlicking degenerate creature.
Yes we can. - an actual patriotic American not in a cult
Spoken like someone from the very very shallowest side of the gene pool. You're a mouth and an anus and not much else.
βNo uβ come on with the childish shit. Yes we could trust Europe you dumb dumb. America literally wouldnβt exist without French support but you wanna be a contrarian so bad you just ignore everything and type out this moronic dribble
You can even look into much closer history - look at the participants of Enduring Freedom. Nice to see how respected the life's of our citizens, who died in Afghanistan or elsewhere, are to people like that.
I hope your country survives people like you
Kindly - shut up. All those countries you don't trust followed America into Afghanistan, many into other wars. All lost citizens in support of American and joint interests, we did our part, as allies should. Guess we now know who is the real untrustworthy partner, and I doubt any of us will forget the betrayal anytime soon.
