France and the UK’s nuclear arsenal is minuscule compared to the US stockpile.
You only need a few.
And a lot of the nukes at NATO bases are on loan from the US, so if the US pulls out there will not be nearly as many bombs close to Russia.
Both UK and France have nuclear armed subs, those are all that matter.
Anyone insane enough to start a nuclear war may decide that absorbing a hundred or so nukes isn’t so bad when they have hundreds of Cold War era bunkers and thousands of their own nukes.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say even Putin doesn't want to spend the rest of his life in a bunker.
You have the remarkable ability to confidently navigate the world with a mind so barren of critical thought that even a Magic 8-Ball would outthink you in a debate.
Fall for it? They're grateful he's made their job insanely easy. They used yo have to investigate things and then risk running afoul of the powerful. Now they just have to print whatever the latest outrageous bullshit comes out of Donald's mouth and reap the clicks and ad dollars.
Sort of funny that as soon as the greatest generation died their children, who were too stupid to understand what they had built, destroyed their empire
A group that's doing pretty well starts to get worried that the groups that aren't doing as hot are going to come for them so they no longer want those groups to have a say in government and use their assets they've gained from doing pretty well to prop up a daddy figure to protect them.
The Federal Government has pledged 6 billion in federal funding to address Canada's housing crisis; however, to access the funds, provinces and territories must meet specific conditions[1][3]. One of these conditions includes allowing fourplexes to be built "as of right," but Ontario Premier Doug Ford has rejected this idea[1].
Key Points:
Canada Housing Infrastructure Fund The federal government is creating a 6 billion fund to construct and upgrade water, wastewater, stormwater, and solid waste infrastructure[1]. 1 billion will go directly to municipalities for urgent infrastructure needs[1][3]. The remaining 5 billion would be allocated through agreements with provinces and territories to support long-term priorities[3].
Conditions Provinces must allow the development of four-unit residential dwellings to access the funding[5].
Ontario's Stance Premier Doug Ford has refused to force municipalities to allow fourplexes on residential land[5]. He believes municipalities should determine what is good for their communities[5]. The Ford government appears to be casting aside the federal government’s latest housing plan, which would require provincial buy-in on fourplexes in order to receiving funding from Ottawa in 2025[7].
Federal Perspective The federal government is attaching strings to the money to incentivize changes needed to solve the national housing crisis[1]. Housing Minister Sean Fraser stated that the funding aims to "actually solve the national housing crisis, not just play at the margins"[7].
Additional Measures The federal government is also increasing its housing accelerator fund by 400 million over three years, which is expected to help build an additional 12,000 homes[1][3].
Criticism Conservative housing critic Scott Aitchison has dismissed the announcement as a " 4 billion dollar photo op fund"[1].
Gets rid of the borders which are honestly just traffic jams.
And I think more regional nationalism will be healthier for everyone. Lot of frustration seems to come with seeing someone on the other side of the country behaving in a way that you think doesn't fit in with the idea of your nationality.
California has a rural state within it that's called The State Of Jefferson and it's very rural and conservative. You can just cut that part out of Cascadia
