Episode Details

Canada’s lone seaworthy submarine, the HMCS Corner Brook, just sank a U.S. warship during a high-stakes Rim of the Pacific drill — proving its combat chops just days after the government admitted only one of its four subs is operational. While the aging vessel may be a relic, it delivered a precision strike on the USS Mobile Bay, turning the spotlight on Canada’s urgent need for a new fleet — potentially its biggest defense buy ever. For the submariners, it was a rare thrill: instead of being a target, they were the hunter. With allies like the U.S. also sinking ships in the same exercise, Canada’s participation underscores its enduring role in global naval training — even as it grapples with fleet decay.
