The Canadian Navy has some huge headaches these days
Windsor Star Article

The Harper rebuilding plan thus far is all talk. And there is a lot of criticism about the arctic patrol ships, as they will be too small and light to operate in Arctic waters much of the year (so some argue, makes them pointless and a waste of funds).

P.S. recent Janes article - none of the Canadian Navy's four subs are currently operational.
