Canada alters plan

Update on Canada's F-35 debacle.

What ever happened to the PMs claim that they would order in 2016 when they were at their lowest price and peak production? ....2011:

As strange as it may seem, that is what Lockheed Martin vice-president Stephen O'Bryan told CBC News in an interview at the company's vast F-35 manufacturing plant in Fort Worth, Texas, last week. Sure, the early prototypes are hideously costly — more than $150 million a copy, but Canada won't be buying until 2016, when production is at full speed, says O'Bryan, so the cost of each jet will fall.

So, can we count on that price of $65 million each in 2016 when we have to pay up?

"You can!" says O'Bryan.
