i like stewart's approach. . .we might not throw out the baby with the bathwater, but the bathwater definitely needs changing:
In fairness, the F-35 may well end up to be an excellent plane, even if it turns out to be somewhat less of the wonder-craft that its boosters once bragged of.
An open Canadian competition may still choose it, albeit in fewer numbers I think it's safe to predict.
But even if that is the case, Canada will lose little, if anything, by letting the aviation world know that we're going to be as cautious as everyone else about such a controversial buy.
