    Canada should fast track nuclear armament.

    We have the tech, we have zero reason not to.

          I feel like they’d do better as territories. Even the more left leaning US states have a very different political culture that I wouldn’t want imported into Canada

              Or, maybe it’s not (just) distraction. Maybe he is seeding interest amongst the Canadian magatards. Maybe this is designed to give traction to Dani Smith and her ilk, to create division and internal strife.

              Maybe Trump and the repubs have been following a playbook for all his Canada talk… maybe Putin’s playbook on Ukraine.

                Trump’s latest remarks come only days after Pete Hoekstra, the U.S. ambassador to Canada, said it’s Canadians who are fixated on the 51st state talk, and that sort of rhetoric is now in the past.

                These idiots can’t even keep their bullshit consistent.

                    This won’t stop. There’s too much money to be made to let it go. If we shift to the right, it’s gonna get worse.

                      Well, we have treaties. With countries other than the United States.

                      Might still be worth gearing up to breach them if need be, though. I suspect most of them will understand.

                        They should just be independent countries for a while and see how that goes before they even consider asking to move in with someone else.

                                  CANDU doesn’t use enriched uranium. So unlike other nuclear powered countries we haven’t built enrichment capacity necessary for power and weapons.

                                  Worse, the new SMR projects being built make us dependent on the US for fuel since they use enriched uranium.
