No Fighter Jets Coalition

We will not allow Canada to buy 88 new war planes to rain bombs in US & NATO wars. #NoNewFighterJets

[No Fighter Jets Coalition @nofighterjets]

This morning, @AnitaAnandMP says Canada is officially buying 88 F-35 fighter jets in a phased approach despite widespread opposition & controversy. Officials acknowledged that the lifecycle cost estimate of the warplanes is ~$70B. The #NoFighterJets movement isn't going anywhere.

Total cost of Canada’s purchase of F-35 stealth fighters will be $74 billion, according to a new report from the PBO. The total includes the development, acquisition, operations and sustainment of the F-35 over a 45-year period.

The Parliamentary Budget Officer estimates the "life cycle" cost of Canada's new fleet of F-35 warplanes to be $73.9 billion, including about $11.3 billion for weapons, munitions and other "operations costs". Key excerpts from this report: https://t.co/gn7TdJKG9c #DefundWarplanes

The (illegal) lack of transparency and secrecy by the Canadian Forces and National Defence is a big part of why our work to hold them accountable – or even find out what they're doing and planning – is so difficult. And that is precisely the point. https://t.co/vS0cYyjV19

“National Defence claimed not a single document or any information whatsoever was sent to then Defence Minister Anita Anand throughout the four-month period covering the selection and announcement of the F-35 fighter jet in a $19-billion procurement deal.” #NoNewFighterJets

"The media was responsible for helping create an environment where people begged for war, racist laws and attacks on civil liberties." And this is still deeply true today. Fear continues to be warped into weapons contracts, state surveillance, hate & war in the blink of an eye.

[WILPF Canada @wilpfcanada]

Canada is spending $70 billion to buy these lemons! @JustinTrudeau govt getting 88 fossil fuel powered warplanes that exacerbate climate crisis & are a crash risk! 👇Put 💰 into protecting environment & poverty not #F35s. @AnitaAnandMP @BillBlair @nofighterjets #GroundTheF35

Bravo to our allies throwing down hard this week at the DSEI weapons bonanza. We need to both end war and end the landslide profits made off of perpetuating the violence. #StopDSEI https://t.co/nPSuyA40Ds

Workers are unstoppable, another world is possible! We’re marching for a #WorldBeyondWar this #LaborDay!

[World BEYOND War Canada @WBWCanada]

We’re at University and Queen getting ready to march - join us! We’re coming together as workers united against war and we’re calling out the #TorontoAirshow while we march right to it. #LaborDay

[No Fighter Jets Coalition @nofighterjets]

This is paid advertising for Lockheed Martin, and one way they’ve been trying to sell the Canadian public on their fighter jet — the F35 that Canada is planning to purchase. The F35s flying are by far the most deafening part of the air show. Time to cancel the F35 & the air show!

[World BEYOND War Canada @WBWCanada]

🚨We'll be marching with a CANCEL THE AIR SHOW banner at the big Labour Day March during the #TorontoAirShow (and leading right to it at the CNE) on Monday. Join us!
Meetup: 9am, Queen & University, Monday Sept 4.
