Seriously though The Upholder class subs are damned good bits of kit, and in their original configuration, were increadibly reliable according to former crew members testamonies... I really have to wonder if in Canada's desire to save costs by removing capability, they haven't sacrificed safety.
I'm sure we'll never know! Submarines are still rather secretive, and our government gets easily embarrassed with any military mishaps. I'm just happy it didn't turn into another Kursk!
