WNU Editor: This is a comprehensive Canadian news report from the Fifth Estate/CBC on the F-35 program .... and it is a must see program for anyone who is interested in the F-35 program.

They are telling me the same thing .... the Canadian government will not select the F-35 .... it is too expensive to buy and to maintain .... and more to the point .... they now believe that it will "not live up to it's hype".
The final decision to buy the F-35 plane will be decided in the future .... my prediction is that they will choose this plane
