Canada Command (en francais)

Canada Command
Admiral to lead new military structure to handle trouble at home

This kind of stuff just leaves me shaking my head. The Canadian Military is already a top heavy, bloated organization to begin with. We need to be reducing commands, not creating new ones. The Forces are under-staffed, under-funded and stretched to the breaking point.

I don't have the stats at hand, but the last time I checked the Canadian military still had one of the highest ratios of Officers to Enlisted in the world. We have more people working at headquarters or commands etc, than we have total strength in the Navy and Air Force combined.

More smoke and mirrors to make it look like the CF is being 'revived and renewed'. Canada Command certainly is catchy, but is it useful and cost-effective? Not likely.
