Yeah, but proliferation is bad, basically. The more nations have nukes the harder it is to not use them.
That being said, we already have the CANDU reactors in Ontario churning out plutonium that we just bury. I’ve heard it estimated we could have bombs in like 3 months if we wanted.
As someone working in the field, that’s what makes everything happening the biggest US policy blunder ever. The NPT is dead in the water and it was completely preventable.
Us too plz?
I’m sure we’ll give you guys whatever you want in return, shit’s getting really scary here in Canada.
