I'm not sure what's going on in Canada but I'm starting to be thankful they don't have nuclear weapons.*
From the Ottawa Citizen, March 15:
Viewers watching CBC’s The National on Monday night could be forgiven if they thought they tuned into a screening of Stanley Kubrick’s classic Cold War film, Dr. Strangelove.
The guests on that broadcast were advocating a no-fly zone over Ukraine and calling out Russian leader Vladimir Putin on his so-called “bluff” on his threat to use nuclear weapons.
The message was clear – it’s time to have a game of nuclear chicken over Ukraine.
The advice came from two retired Canadian generals; former chief of the defence staff Gen. Rick Hillier and Maj. Gen. Lewis MacKenzie.
Hillier is known to older Canadians as the general who led the war in Afghanistan and predicted that the Taliban would lose. He is known to younger Canadians as the man behind Ontario’s much maligned and bungled COVID-19 vaccine rollout.
MacKenzie is known for his 1990s role in the former Yugoslavia....

That short post hits on all the high points: a software engineer in Derbyshire, my experience with black helicopters, the sentencing of cannibal Alferd Packer (after whom the restaurant at the University of Colorado-Boulder student center was named) and the fastest road-race in the U.S., plus some other stuff.
