Being a self-preservist, I would hate my government for starting a war and than end up causing a world wide nuclear fallout do boot. That is why Canada doesn't have nukes. Our people and foreign policy more or less says that nukes may keep the peace but talking maintains it. Smart and civil folk will negotiate, wheel n' deal your way to international success. <br /> <br />I wouldn't say it's a fact because I can't prove it but; most first world countries without nuclear weapons tends to be trusted and liked more than the ones with. I don't recall anybody suggesting that Canada should be invaded for a long time (not since after the civil war). <br /> <br />This subject kind of scares me because the way people think, I would live a short life and our railfanning days would be over too. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />No, the reason that Canada doesn't have nukes is because they have the best trained force to the south of them. They know that they have nothing to worry about because there will never be a war between us, and that we will always protect you. Since the Government know that, it knows that they can spend money on other things besides that. It has nothing to do with the moral aspects of nuclear weapons. I would think that Brittain is the most trusted country in the world, and they surely have nukes. And as I said earlier, anybody who messes with you messes with us, that is why you haven't been invaded.
