Might also ask how the RCAF is dealing with a pilot shortage. This has a familiar ring to it:
“The RCAF is also dealing with a pilot shortage, with only 64% of the trained CF-18 pilots it needs to meet its commitments, says the Auditor General. However, National Defence is unlikely to be able to close the gap because
pilots are also leaving the fighter force faster than new ones could be trained, the report says.“
