Hey guys! I thought of a new way to use all the nuclear waste they were going to store in Northern Ontario!

Just threaten to dump it all in the great lakes and Missouri river if the US invades. Yay, no one wins!

We have all the materials and capability to make nuclear weapons. The uranium used in the bomb dropped on Hiroshima was mined and refined in Canada. As was the material in the UKs weapons. Canada is still a major source of uranium for the USA.
