Canadian Security & Should we build Nukes? - with Julian Spencer-Churchill
Andrew Berkshire & Dave Kaufman are joined by Dr. Julian Spencer-Churchill, Associate Professor of Political Science at Concordia University, former Army Operating Officer of the 3rd Field Engineering Regiment, and expert on nuclear technology and the politics surrounding nuclear weapons.
With ongoing aggression by the USA against Canada, several op eds have been published in major media outlets suggesting Canada should build nuclear weapons to defend itself, so Andrew reached out to Dr. Spencer-Churchill to examine how realistic that idea is, whether it makes sense, and how vulnerable Canada is.
Topics
Can Canada create a nuclear arms program? Would it make sense?
America sees Canada as immature and insecure, why? And how does that relate to Carney's Liberal government's priorities?
Expanding on Canada's historical political, cultural, & security priorities.
What happens if the United States of America invades Canada?
Finding a path forward for Canada to avoid conflict.
