Canada should join the (nuclear) big leagues

Nuclear depth charges? For when you wanna do extreme fishing?

"Extreme Fishing".....yeah that's possibly the definition of ASW I've ever heard.

I’m definitely not surprised that we are looking at an increase in nuclear proliferation. Between Russia invading Ukraine a couple decades after the Ukrainians gave up their Soviet arsenal for “security guarantees” and Uncle Sam becoming a much less dependable ally, other countries would be dumb not to think about it. Off the top of my head, I can see South Korea, Japan and Taiwan being the most serious in acquiring nukes. Poland seems to be the best European candidate for nuclear proliferation.

You can bet KSA is quietly examining nukes as well.

Hmmm...apparently the F-35 will be certified to carry the B61-12 nuclear gravity bomb internally. No wonder Israel isn't keen on Trump selling F-35's to Saudi Arabia.

There are a lot of ways nukes can be delivered to targets. The worry is possession, not means of delivery.

Not every means of delivery is stealthy which could impact the potential to retaliate - i.e. potentially reduced deterrence effect of Israeli nukes

I’m sorry but please can we have at least two different nuclear bombs? One made in Ontario [code named Fat Man] and one made in a Brookfield apartment [Little Boy]. Or a cleverly designed Cowichan bomb that lays waste to the land but leaves bank accounts intact. Something for everyone…

And you can bet that program would get the Gerald Bull treatment much sooner than later…
