Next time you get change back at the store, check for a newly released loonie commemorating the 100th anniversary of the navy.

    This is a cool looking coin and it is right to honour members of the armed forces.

    Too bad it's cheaper to make up a fancy coin than to actually fund the Navy...

    Nice coin.

    Only a few months or so ago, there has been a convincing commitment to fund the Navy. Although, it is true, that there have been previous announcements of the genre that never materialized either.

    Oh, it's nice all right, but like I said, I wish the government had the will to fund the Navy, instead of issuing press releases about the same ships over and over.

    Also it would be an idea to change the official name from 'Maritime Command' to something a bit better.

    You lot don't want 'Royal' on things anymore so change it to the 'Canadian Navy'.

    Same with Air Command.

    Just bloody change the names to something proper.
