When Canada scrapped her last carrier- "bonaventure",
too many years ago and shotly after a major
refit-sheesh-, it was supposed to be scrapped.

However, there are persistent rumours that in fact the
purchaser took it and it was swapped mid ocean for
another carrier of the same class which was rather
more tired and had been suitable stripped...it was
this latter that was scrapped and India???? got our
carrier which is still afloat at least according to
the stories..

True? i dunno, but stranger things have happened!
