Reuters: Canada election results seen as bad news for Lockheed's F-35
Oct 20 (Reuters) - The election of Canada's Liberal leader Justin Trudeau as prime minister spells bad news for Lockheed Martin Corp's F-35 fighter jet program given Trudeau's staunch opposition to any F-35 purchases, U.S. industry and government sources said on Tuesday.
Trudeau's election offers hope to Boeing Co, whose F/A-18E/F fighter jets are nearing the end of production and could be considered to replace Canada's current aging CF-18 fighter jets.
Industry executives and government officials said there would be difficulty ahead for the F-35 program.
WNU Editor: I have been told that Canada's purchase of the F-35 program will be scrapped .... and a new bidding process will be mandated. I have also been told that Boeing's F/A-18E/F fighter jet is favoured as being the perfect jet for Canada .... it has two engines (ideal when you are flying around in the Arctic and one of the engines malfunctions), and Canadian maintenance crews are already experienced with the CF-18 (an older version of the F/A-18E/F fighter). Costs are also a factor .... especially since the F-35 is becoming a very expensive plane.

YOU CAN SKIP THIS PART(short joke)...
A young couple moved into a new neighbourhood. The next morning while eating breakfast, the young woman saw her neighbour through the window hanging the wash outside.
"That laundry is not clean," she said. "She doesn't know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs better laundry soap".
Her husband looked on, but remained silent. Every time the neighbour would hang laundry to dry, the young woman would make the same
comments.
About one month later, the woman was surprised to see nice clean wash on the line and said to her husband: "Look, she has learnt how to wash correctly. I wonder who taught her this!"
The husband replied: "I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows."
And so it is with life.
What we see when watching others depends on the purity of the window through which we look.
Easy to discuss other people, their lives and things that don't really concern us.
Yet we tend to forget- our window isn't that clean after all.
Clean up your window with the WORD! (THE TRUTH.)
LORD, please give us the strength, humility and courage that we may work on our faults first rather than seeing the faults in Others and castigating them.
Have a beautiful Week !
