From where I stand, Canada is weird.

If have my facts straight. Canada is sort of the broker/middleman between China and U.S.A. And both of them want to have a stronger influence on Canada. If USA doesn’t play along it will lose against China.

Having these nukes in Canada means American personal in Canada and closer lines of communication with the higher staff of the government to push their agenda. With other words, America can’t afford to pull back the nukes from Canada, but neither can Canada really use them.

And with the following I might be in the minority, but Nuclear weapons doesn’t mean squat to me. What leaders of all nations want are worker ants working to the will, enjoyment for themselves. Hell if they also bend the actions of other workers ant the better.

What they don’t want however is losing their worker ants or the system than maintains it, because they don’t want lose their personal playground. Nukes on paper can provide for both, thus its something they will not use.

I agree with that statement, that is why I said. Higher probability, just because its probably doesn’t mean it will happen. And off course there are options between independent nation and vassal state.

And finally. You don’t need to read minds, just reading people, groups of people and council of people is enough to have somewhat accurate speculations of what nations are thinking and how things might proceed.

Hi kaz
re lavrov’s statement
He’s correct about the US doing whatever it takes to stay the top dog on the global heap-
He might have been attempting to be diplomatic?
Or perhaps he couldn’t imagine how low the US would go?
(I’m not a mind reader)
Ukraine could have and should have been solved diplomatically , it’s very clear the US wanted no part in this. (Action not reading minds)

Russia will become a little more subordinate to China but I wouldn’t say vassal state. (both nations having nukes)
Canada is a vassal state to the US- that’s accurate- the only nuclear missiles we have access to ‘officially’ are through our NATO partnership

“For its own defence and safety, Canada remains a member of NATO, which has a program for sharing nuclear weapons among member countries without nuclear capability, and Norad (now called the North American Aerospace Defence Command), an alliance with one of the world’s nuclear superpowers.”

Which means we only have them if the US allows for it

Seriously Lavrov, you gonna come out with that sentence. America is keep doing that until its core rots out. And the more it rots from the inside the more dirty attempts its gonna try.

This course of action looks like it will build the storyline that America is the antagonist in small steps and this will put its main rivals China, Russia(?) more towards the Protagonist role. I put a (?) behind Russia, because with this rate the probability of it becoming an unofficial vassal state of China is increasing.

And before you think that this development is a good thing. It isn’t, the protagonist is the protagonist until the antagonist is beaten. After that it depends on its people. And I have to say the potential of China becoming the antagonist after the current antagonist is beaten is way heavier than not becoming it.
