Canada's submarine choice and confidence in the Type 212

What is your view of Canada's submarine choice?

Both the German and South Korean submarine designs receive a favourable assessment. The initial preference expressed is for the South Korean option, followed by an explanation of why Canada might prefer the German Type 212.

Canada's previous experience with the Upholders is offered as a reason to avoid further risk. This is an interpretation of procurement preferences, without a detailed comparison of the boats' specifications.
