(Ottawa, December 7, 2012) – The Conservative government is expected to announce it is reopening the process for choosing a new fighter jet for the Canadian Air Forces. Join CPAC tonight for an encore presentation of the in-depth documentary F-35: The Politics of Procurement. Host Scott Taylor of Esprit de Corps magazine explored the jet purchase in 2011 as the government aimed to replace its decades’ old CF-18s. The F-35 acquisition was going to be the largest military equipment purchase in the country’s history.
Today as the government mulls its decision with the Opposition upset over ballooning costs, go back to hear who supported and opposed the purchase, and get exclusive access to some of the most advanced aerial fighter machines on the planet.
