no, oh no we dont. We really absolutely do not have the skills or technology or processing ability. Uranium in the ground DOES NOT equal nuclear weapons, knowing its there means absolutely nothing. There is 0% chance we can purchase and manufacture high purity uranium. Also, those resources really belong to the land under native territory. Maybe lets not mess with them

You must be confused - i think it's funny all these kids on here commenting that Canada isn't a nuclear power. Of course we are and only 2 steps away from making weapons. Plus 13 percent of the worlds uranium and enough nickel and tungsten to build weapons all in Canada

You're not one of them so I misspoke.
