Canada Seeks Stealthy Snowmobile, For No Good Reason

[Platapus]

Why would Canada need this?

Drug trafficking. Or more appropriately, anti-drug trafficking.

It is big business and a big problem.

a historian interviewed by the Canadian Press declared himself ***8220;at a loss to know***8221; why Canada needed silent alpine cruisers.

And exactly why would anyone ask a historian about this?

You don't think this journalist would just cherry pick a source to find one that agrees with the journalist's opinion, do you? That would be wrong.
