Canada ha ea lokela ho reka jete tse theko e boima, tse matlafatsang tsa khabone, tse kotsi.
Boipelaetso bo ntse bo tšoaroa ka Labohlano liofising tse fetang 15 tsa li-MP ho pholletsa le naha tse hlokang hore mmuso oa koporasi o hlakole theko ea eona e reriloeng ea lifofane tsa ntoa tsa "Generation 5".
Bademona ba batla hore libilione tsa lidolara tse 19 li tla ja chelete e ngata ho sebelisa merero e sa senyeheng tikoloho ebile e le molemo sechabeng.
Lifeme tsa libetsa li na le ho fihlela khoeli e fela ho fana ka likopo tsa bona tsa ho etsa li-jets tse ncha tsa 88 tsa ntoa. Boeing (Super Hornet), Saab (Gripen) le Lockheed Martin (F-35) ba kentse li-bid, mme mmuso oa kopanelo o lebelletsoe ho khetha ea hlolang ka 2022.
Ho na le mabaka a mangata a ho hanyetsa ho reka ha libetsa tsena.
Ea pele ke letšoao la theko la liranta tse libilione tse 19 - $ 216 milione ka sefofane. Ka $ limilione tse likete tse 19, mmuso o ne o ka patalla seporo se bobebe metseng e mengata. E ka rarolla mathata a metsi a Lichaba tsa Pele le ho netefatsa metsi a nooang a phetseng hantle setulong se seng le se seng, 'me e ntse e na le chelete e lekaneng ea ho aha matlo a 64,000 a matlo a boiketlo ba sechaba.
Empa ha se taba feela ea ho senya chelete. Canada e se e ntse e le lebelong la ho tsoa haholo likhase tse futhumatsang lefatše ho feta kamoo e lumetseng Tumellanong ea 2015 ea Paris. Leha ho le joalo rea tseba hore li-jets tsa ntoa li sebelisa mafura a makatsang haholo. Kamora ho libomo tsa likhoeli tse tšeletseng ea Libya ka 2011, Royal Canadian Air Force o ile a senola li-jets tsa eona tse halofo e jele liponto tse limilione tse 14.5 - lilithara tse limilione tse 8.5 - tsa mafura. Ho ntša moea oa Carbon libakeng tse phahameng le hona ho na le phello e futhumatsang ea mocheso, le "tse ling" tse hlahisoang - nitrous oxide, mouoane oa metsi le mosili - li hlahisa litlamorao tse ling tsa leholimo.
Li-jets tsa ntoa li sa hlokehe ho sireletsa batho ba Canada. Motlatsi oa letona la mehleng la ts'ireletso ea naha Charles Nixon ho pheha khang ka nepo ha ho na litšokelo tse tšepahalang tse hlokang hore Canada e be le li-jets tse ncha tsa ntoa. Ha ts'ebetso ea ho reka thepa e qala, Nixon o ile a ngola hore "li-jete" tsa ntoa tsa "ha ho hlokahale ho sireletsa bongata kapa bobusi ba Canada." O bontšitse hore ba tla ba le thuso e kholo ho sebetsana le tlhaselo e kang 5/9, ho arabela likoluoa tsa tlhaho, ho fana ka liphallelo tsa machaba tsa batho kapa mesebetsing ea ho boloka khotso.
Tsena ke libetsa tse kotsi tse kotsi tse reretsoeng ho ntlafatsa matla a sesole sa meea ho kenella ts'ebetsong le US le NATO. Lilemong tse mashome a seng makae tse fetileng, li-jets tsa ntoa tsa Canada li nkile karolo ea bohlokoa ho bomo e etelletsoeng pele ke US ho la Iraq (1991), Serbia (1999), Libya (2011) le Syria / Iraq (2014-2016).
Ho phatloha ha libomo ka matsatsi a 78 ha karolo ea Serbia ea Yugoslavia ea mehleng ka 1999 e tlōtse molao oa machabeng joalo ka ha o sa Lekhotla la Ts'ireletso la Machaba a Kopaneng kapa mmuso oa Serbia e amohelehang eona. Baahi ba ka bang 500 ba ile ba hlokahala nakong ea bomo ea NATO mme ba makholo a likete ba fallisoa. Libomo “Ho senya libaka tsa indasteri le litšebeletso tsa motheo a entse hore lintho tse kotsi li silafatse moea, metsi le mobu. ” Tšenyo ea ka boomo ea limela tsa lik'hemik'hale tse bakiloeng tšenyo e kholo ea tikoloho. Marokho le meaho ea motheo joalo ka limela tsa kalafo ea metsi le likhoebo li ile tsa senyeha kapa tsa senyeha.
Ho phatloha ha libomo haufinyane haholo Syria le hona ho ka ba ha tlola molao oa machabeng. Ka selemo sa 2011, Lekhotla la Ts'ireletso la UN e amohelehang sebaka se sa fofang ho sireletsa baahi ba Libyan, empa bomo ea NATO e feta hole tumello ea UN.
Matla a tšoanang a ne a bapala Ntoeng ea Ghuba lilemong tsa bo-90 tsa pele. Nakong ea ntoa eo, li-jet tsa ntoa tsa Canada li ile tsa kopanela ho seo ho thoeng "Bubiyan Turkey Shoot" e ileng ea senya likepe tse tsamaeang ka likepe tse lekholo le boholo ba lisebelisoa tsa sechaba tsa Iraq. Lijalo tsa tlhahiso ea motlakase naheng ena li ne li helelitsoe haholo joalo ka matamo, limela tsa kalafo ea likhoere-khoere, thepa ea puisano, thepa ea likoung le libaka tsa phepelo ea oli. Mabotho a Iraq a ka bang 20,000 le baahi ba likete ba ne ba ba bolailoe ntoeng.
Naheng ea Libya, lijana tsa ntoa ea NATO li sentse sisteme ea Great Manmade River. Ho hlasela mohloli oa liperesente tse 70 tsa metsi a baahi ho ne ho ka etsahala molato oa ntoa. Ho tloha ka ntoa ea 2011, batho ba limilione ba Liby ba tobane le bothata bo sa feleng ba metsi. Nakong ea likhoeli tse tšeletseng tsa ntoa, selekane e theohile Libomo tsa libomo tse 20,000 tse habeli ho lipolao tse ka bang 6,000, ho kenyeletsoa meaho ea mmuso e fetang 400 kapa litsi tsa taelo. Mekete e mengata, mohlomong ea makholo, ea baahi ba ile ba bolaoa litlamong.
Ho sebelisa chelete e kaalo ka libilione tsa liranta tse 19 ho li-jete-fighter tsa lifofane ho etsa feela mohopolo o thehiloeng ponong ea leano la kantle ho naha la Canada le kenyeletsang ho loana lintoeng tsa nakong e tlang tsa US le NATO.
Ho tloha ha Canada e ne e hlola habeli ka ho latellana setulong sa Lekhotla la Ts'ireletso ka June, tumellano e ntseng e hola e entse hore ho be le tlhoko ea "ho nchafatsa leano la kantle ho naha la Canada." An lengolo le bulehileng ho Tonakholo Justin Trudeau e saenneng ke Greenpeace Canada, 350.org, Idle No More, Climate Strike Canada le lihlopha tse ling tse 40, hammoho le litho tse nne tsa MP tse lutseng hammoho le David Suzuki, Naomi Klein le Stephen Lewis, ba kenyelletsa nyefolo ea sesole sa Canada.
E ea botsa: "Na Canada e lokela ho tsoela pele ho ba karolo ea NATO kapa ho e-na le hoo e phehelle tsela eo eseng ea sesole e eang khotsong ea lefatše?"
Hohle moo likarohano tsa lipolotiki li ntseng li eketseha, mantsoe a eketsehileng a batla hore ho hlahlojoe kapa ho hlophisoe maano a kantle ho naha a Canada.
Ho fihlela tlhahlobo e joalo e etsahetse, mmuso o lokela ho tlohela ho sebelisa lidolara tse libilione tse 19 ho li-jets tse ncha tse sa hlokeng ntoa, tse kotsi.
