Subject: Re: Golden Dome - Canada?
I mean - maybe? Canada doesn't have to let the U.S. build the Golden Dome on their territory.

Sure. We could just China take out Vancouver or Toronto. No skin off our nose.

but they might also recognize that as essential leverage to use against the U.S. for things that Canada wants.

Sure. If Carney is a maniac and wants to play games with his national security.

You realize that Canada has very, very little military power, right? A more open Arctic means their massive coastline is wide open.

But the U.S has degraded that relationship. So now, Canada might demand a "quid" to the "quo" of letting the U.S. use their territory for the Golden Dome.

So in exchange for us buying more maple syrup they allow us the privilege of keeping their towns from being nuked? Sure, why not.
