OTTAWA - A Sea King helicopter crashed into the deck of HMCS Iroquois Thursday, damaging the warship and forcing it to return to port.

Two of the four crew members were slightly injured in the accident

The Iroquois left Halifax Monday, on its way to the Persian Gulf.

While th naive among you may believe this is an accident, it's actually our way of:

a) Appearing to be coperating (albeit reluctantly) with US foreign policy

b) Not actually putting our sailors in the way of US bombs

c) Maintaining the cloak of invisibility that keeps people from doing a WTC or Bali on us.

Stealth nation technology was invented in the years proceeding the Air India bombing of 1985, and has been gradually perfected since then.

Would Canada be willing to share Stealth Nation tech with the UK in exchange for our greatest technological advantage, Tabloid Press Technology?

[Asher]

Oh no, our navy is crippled!

[Paul Hanson]

And your air force as well, by the sounds of it.

[St Leo]

To borrow from space program detractors after Columbia, this is why the Canadian navy and air force need to be disbanded. They have an appaling safety record and contribute nothing to the world. The money is best spent elsewhere.

[KrazyHorse]

The air force isn't involved. The Sea Kings are flown by Navy pilots...

We already have that. What we do want are your recipes for deep-fried vegetables, deep-fried fish, deep-fried potatoes, etc. Canadians just don't cut it when it comes to deep frying.

I think that frogger works for the Canadian military.

just look how cunningly he turns this embarrassing **** up by the Navy into a great success that actually boosts Canada's defence.

or flying

[KrazyHorse]

Hah.

Two minor injuries, but enough damage that the boat has to return to port for major repairs?

I'm glad the rest of the world is so credulous.

[Japher]

O Canada; learn to fly.

As if the insults weren't enough to add injury

Stealth Nation Techonology

That's a good one. It's a shame that such techonology cannot be implemented in Israel. We get so much attention that we became like a black hole, nothing that comes near us can escape the attention, even Stealthy nations.

[Dauphin]

This would have been worthy Yes, Prime Minister material. I can imagine Humphrey Appleby describing it now.

[Arrian]

Now THAT was a good show.

Hah! Do I know Canadian politics or what? (go ahead and answer my rhetorical question; I dare you)

OTTAWA - Defence Minister John McCallum has ruled out sending Canadian ground troops to any war on Iraq.

McCallum confirmed Thursday that the government's recent commitment of peacekeepers to Afghanistan will prevent it from sending ground forces anywhere else for at least a year

the old codger just deliberately hamstrung the military by announcing he'd be sending a battle group to Afghanistan for a year
