This Plane may be one of the contenders for the Canadians in the future since they have ruled out the F-35 as being too expensive. Canada is going to purchase-F-18 Super Hornet as an interim plane until they have a competition figured out in a few years

Excellent choice. Canada is best known for being non-interventionist, they don't need a worldwide deployable, ground attack fighter. What they need, is an inexpensive to maintain and operate point intercept fighter. The Saab JAS 39 Grippen (Griffin) fits the role nicely. It's capable of operating from remote airfields with little ground support.
