The privatization of Canada's military bases.

CFB Rockcliffe Ottawa, 1983.

My Dad is in front of the Lansdowne Barracks, Ottawa during World War 11.

The former Windsor Ontario armoury.

At least 14 Canadian military bases; armouries; the Diefenbunkers; the Pinetree Line and Veteran's Hospitals have been privatized.

The Canadian Forces Base Rockcliffe should have been transformed into a National Memorial Park or a National Veterans Park. Instead, most of the land will be sold to real estate entities, and a few plaques will commemorate the history of the site. CFB Rockcliffe was sacred ground, in my opinion.
American President Bill Clinton approved the closure of 130 American domestic military bases in 1993; he called the scheme to demilitarize the United States "defence conversion". Major corporations and billionaires profited from this "conversion"---the Walt Disney Corporation and Star Wars creator George Lucas bought land at San Francisco's massive Presidio military base, and Packard Bell converted an army depot in Sacramento, California into a computer assembly factory. The rich and famous can escape to their underground bunkers during times of conflict, or fly to Antarctica. Or maybe they'll create colonies on Mars, courtesy of Elon Musk. There is a reason why certain individuals receive billions of dollars in grants from the American government; the so-called elite (politicians, royalty, corporate barons) will live distant planets, not average citizens.
