true, the RCAF had nukes for air defense purposes, certainly not talked about for fear of the horrendous political brouha that woud've probably resulted if they did talk about it....but then thats neither here nor there in the point trying to be made: Appeasement has its uses along with sabre-rattling. The fact that a nation may/does have nukes doesnot obviate the use of appeasement as diplomatic tool as MadMike has pointed out.
I do agree that Canada is definately a two-faced nation when it comes to foriegn policy or even internal policy.
