Canada was able to build licensed F-86 Saber Jets and F-104 starfighters.
Last year, I went to a Canadian Museum in Calgary that had a f-104 Starfighter on display. Canada had at least three squadrons of aircraft and about 10,000 troops in Germany during the Cold War era of the '60s and '70s.
This particular aircraft is being donated to a private museum in British Columbia.
My own personal pictures taken a two different museums are in the comments.

A little to far for me to travel from KY but I would love to visit an Aviation Museum.

I've always liked the F-104. The Turkish Air Force at the base where I was stationed was in the process of converting from them to the F-16 while I was there so I've had a chance to be up close and personal to their operations.
