Activists want Canada to push for nuclear-free world despite Dion's reticence

These activists are delusional. The unfortunate reality is that they are a highly effective deterrent to other countries' leaders going haywire. Additionally, as has been stated, there are many people out there that have no care, and if they came into possession of the weapons would not hesitate to use them.

wmd have worked a deterrence yes..but the same people who doh care will unleash the wmd anyway..if deh get the chance.  I doh know how we still here for dat reason...pure luck I am sure.

but I am convinced that if the capitalist elites find themselves losing out, that revolutions succeeding everywhere and its all over..that they will push the button.  especially the Jews. 

the jews have long developed what they call their 'sampson option' and that is its purpose...to blow the world anytime they are going to loose and the Jewish people come under global manners for their sins against humanity. 

but all the capitalist are the same way.  they will not take no for an answer.  it is my opinion that they will have the world they way they want it or they will not leave the world in-tact

Well, "Nuclear Security" is a better and more practical thing now than Nuclear non-proliferation or a non-nuclear world. The idea should be to make sure that all "loaded" countries don't leave their nuke "guns" unattended. That's all.

Too many movies on this  ::LOL:: , Scooby ! 

Wow, so you see that too Maps?

That the only sustainable way for America to stay economically relevant is to keep going to wars?I mean it worked for countries and leaders in the past. Its a "nice" model but ultimately you will run out of resources because you can't win all wars. Napolean lost. Alexander lost. Frankly conquest is a model that can't end well.And I actually think some of the European countries simply free-loaded and let the US handle their problems.I mean lets get real, you don't need a nuke as a country. You just need to have an ally who has nukes.

Bro, when you copy and pasting : get the fonts right !

Sorry about that Everytime I delete a line in the middle for editing or anything and click save/post, it just messes up the font.

The cause is very good but I am not sure that this is possible when we know wars are fought to preserve the economy of one state. Americans are fighting many wars right now and they need to have nuclear war heads for security reasons. They need to have this power and not only them but all the countries that have nuclear weapons.

I'm all for a nuclear-free world, well mostly because my country doesn't even have its own nuclear weapons. Lol. Kidding aside, it would be a better world if there really is no nuclear weapon. But the reality is, lots of countries have invested so much money on nuclear weapons. Is it for preparation in case a war is about to happen? Or maybe just a safety blanket in case another country attacks them? Whatever their reason is, it has caused other countries to create their own nuclear weapons as well.

I know that if my country has the money, it would no doubt build its own nuclear weapon as well. The thing is, we're the losers here, countries without nuclear weapons will be caught in the middle of war. They cannot protect their citizens and their territories.

And although that's not a good thinking or even reason enough to build nuclear weapons, I do understand why there's a need for them. In a world where anything can be fixed by diplomatic talks, there would be no need for nuclear weapons. Sadly, that's not the world we live in today.
