Despite the financial cut between 1987–2004,[1] the Canadian Forces are well equipped. The Land Force Command currently operate approximatively 10 500 utility vehicles including G-wagon and 7000-MV and also operate approximatively 2 700 armoured fighting vehicles including the LAV-III and the Leopard 2.[2] The land force also operate approximatively 150 field artillery including the M777 howitzer and the LG1 Mark II. The Canadian navy currently operates 33 combat vessels.[3] These include the Halifax class frigate and the Victoria class submarine. The Canadian air force operates 333 aircraft.[4]

Under the section Early 20th century, it indicates "In response to the downturn, the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation (CCF) in Alberta and Saskatchewan introduced many elements of a welfare state (as pioneered by Tommy Douglas) in the 1940s and 1950s."
This is factually inaccurate; Alberta has never had a CCF-led government and thus it is theoretically impossible for them to have introduced such elements. The source of confusion might be the result of the CCF being formed in Alberta. 128.100.238.117 (talk) 17:15, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
Y Done The original author may have included Alberta due to its formation there, as you say. But the meaning was unclear, so I removed Alberta. Thanks, 17:33, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
[edit] The True Founding of the Dominion of Canada
In 1862 the Duke of Newcastle (Henry Pelham Pelham Pelham-CLINTON) "borrowed" 12,000,000 pounds of silver from the PAPAL Bank of England to build useless PAPAL railroads as a "treadmill of debt" mechanism. The "loan" was to expire December 1867 so the need to refinance arose. The refinancing involved the concentration of the "loans" to; Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Canada into a new central "authority" called the; "Dominon of Canada". The precipitate, of course, involved the genocide of the Original, as opposed to the "ab"-original, people of Turtle Island. The whole process is centred upon the creation of so-called "treaties" then send your agents to anhilated the beneficiaries to the trust-treaty so the land would then "naturally" flow to the PAPACY as an escheat of the land to the vicar of Satan; POPE. If you would like to review the document concerning this banking fraud please feel free to contact me and I shall forward the same to you. Also, this is noted in the book; NEW WORLD ORDER, Old World Concentration found at; wryb.net. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.137.66.194 (talk) 12:31, 19 January 2012 (UTC)

[edit] Editors cautioned about article expansion
I reverted two edits by JoJaEpp on 14 November, 2011. Recently JoJaEpp asked me why I reverted those edits. Here's my explanation:
- Here JoJaEpp added unsourced details about naval shipbuilding. Note that the citation at the end of that paragraph is about F-35 fighters, not about ships. This article is a Featured Article and, per consensus, all material needs to have a citation from a reliable source.
- With this edit JoJaEpp changed the section heading "Science and Technology" to include medicine. As a featured article, the headings have long been agreed upon. To expand this article to describe medical advances is beyond its scope. JoJaEpp added details about Banting's discovery of insulin. While Banting's discovery was brilliant and important, it is not the only noteworthy discovery in the field of medicine. If we were to do justice to JoJaEpp's proposed expansion of this section, we would need to include all of the noteworthy discoveries in the field of medicine. Such is not within the scope of this article, which is already very long.
There is an infobox that appears when anyone edits this article (and also at the top of this page). It says: "This overview article is already too long and should serve only as an introduction for Canada. To keep this overview article concise, please consider adding information instead to one of the many "main" articles about Canada linked from this article." I hope that this is clear.

[edit] Suggested change for the Infobox?
I've got a suggestion for a change for the infobox, but since this is such an important article with a long history, I thought I'd mention it here for discussion.
In the section headed "Establishment", I would suggest changing "British North America Acts" to "Constitution Act, 1867". Since 1982, the name of the Act in Canada has been the Constitution Act, 1867. The infobox should reflect our current constitutional structure. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 22:32, 11 February 2012 (UTC)
