When an officer of the HMCS Vancouver announced that the tanker was about to be boarded, the crew of the detained ship was confused, said Omari, but their confusion quickly turned to anger when they saw what the Canadians sailors were carrying. "They were armed. With guns," said Omari. "Canadians. With guns. And a warship. What is this world coming to?"


Sorry lonita. But I did laugh.

when i was in the american navy and talking with one of the petty officers in boot camp he told me of the time they went on maneuvers with some Canadian warships. I quote "Those Canadians with their 50 year old ships ran circles around us, they were much better disciplined, etc."
