Summary

Canada’s aging Victoria-class submarines are being kept alive for another decade—until at least the mid-to-late 2030s—despite a history of disasters, to train crews for the upcoming German subs. With no spare parts readily available and costly custom replacements, the navy is pushing through to maintain these unique vessels, which are the only ones of their kind, until the new fleet arrives around 2034. It’s a risky, expensive gamble—but essential to keep Canada’s underwater force alive until the future arrives. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
