===Other ships=== The Canadian [[Naval Aid Bill]] of 1913 intended to provide the funds for three modern battleships, which most likely would have been three more members of the ''Queen Elizabeth'' class, potentially named as ''Acadia'', ''Quebec'' and ''Ontario'',<ref>{{cite journal |last=Schleihauf |first=William |date=2000 |title="Necessary stepping stones" - The transfer of ''Aurora'', ''Patriot'' and ''Patrician'' to the Royal Canadian Navy after the First World War |url=http://scholars.wlu.ca/cmh/vol9/iss3/4/|journal=Canadian Military History |volume=9 |issue=3 |pages=21β28 |access-date=19 March 2014}}</ref> in much the same way as ''Malaya'' had been funded. The bill met with stiff opposition in Parliament, and was not passed.<ref>[http://www.gwpda.org/naval/pwr02000.htm Borden's Naval Aid Bill, 1912]</ref> It is unclear if these ships would have served in the Royal Navy (as with outright gifts like ''Malaya'' or the battlecruiser {{HMS|New Zealand|1911|2}}), or if they would have served in the [[Royal Canadian Navy]] ({{HMAS|Australia|1911|6}}, an {{sclass|Indefatigable|battlecruiser|2}}, served with the [[Royal Australian Navy]]).
