The Yanks have got Brit pilots on secondment flying Yankee aircraft off of Yankee Carriers. It wouldn't surprise me if "Redundant" Brit Harrier pilots ended up flying their old aircraft for the USMC on secondment.
Perhaps the same thing could apply to SSNs as applies to AWACs. Canada chips in for the cost of the vessel. The US manages the maintenance and support and Canada supplies crew (initially part of the US crew and eventually independent crews).
I still believe something of the same sort could be agreed with the Brits in terms of manning and operating their two (eventually) new carriers.
After all..... we're all good pals together. Right? ;D
