$1:
The navy was recently forced to make design changes to the Arctic ships in order to keep the project within budget.

The patrol boats, which would be expected to cut through medium, one-year-old ice, will have a smaller deck gun - some defence analysts dismiss it as a "pea shooter" - as well as a commercial radar system and a less powerful engine than originally envisioned.


Fuck, why not strip out the engines altogether so it can really be under budget.

Stop the fucking penny pinching and get them built already!

What's the engine gonna be? A fuckin Evinrude??? Not exactly the kind of ship that will project Canada's sovereignty into the Arctic now is it.
