ASSIGNMENT 3 1 Defending North America Choices for Canada

It was found impractical to assist with forces in the conflict after negotiation between the two world leaders.

John Diefenbaker wanted to see Canada asserting their independence and not simply follow the directions of the United States.

Canada should not enter conflict that solely revolved around American foreign policies.

Canada were originally skeptical upon hearing the news involving the Cuban missiles. There had needed to be investigation of our own before taking actions, as the information received was only from the United States.

It is costly to start developing nuclear weapons, the money could be otherwise spent in other areas of the country that need development.

Developing nuclear weapons in Canada could place us as a more primary target for the Soviet Union in the future

Canada has pushed to end nuclear testing, it would be hypocritical to start developing nuclear weapons.

It is seen by the Canadian public and the minister of external affairs that Canada should remain a nuke free country

Against

The high cost of money to produce such an Aircraft could be spent on other, just as important military weapons such as larger amounts of other aircrafts, or investing in naval equipment.

By the time this plane was produced, its usage would be obsolete as bombers would become obsolete as well, taken over by ballistic missiles.

Although the plane would have helped in the Cold War in many ways, the time it would take to produce the aircraft means that there would be little use when it is created.

There was a low market for an Aircraft that costed 6 times more than the American Version.

Canada's Role in the Cuban Missile Crisis.

It is expected that Canada helps the United States and continue to satisfy Canada’s role in NORAD

Canada will be seen as a helping hand to its fellow allies that acquire it. This improves the reputation which Canada holds.

When the United States is endangered of nuclear war, Canada is just as endangered due to geographical location

Refusing to assist in the cause would injure the current relations that Canada and the United States share.

Canada's Acceptance of Nuclear Weapons in 1963

Nuclear Weapons can replace interceptors, which would save money and manpower.

Canada would fulfill its role in NORAD and NATO by investing the Nuclear Weapons.

Nuclear weapons will bring Canada political power. It shows that we are just as powerful as anyone else.

Nuclear weapons bring a strong negotiating point. The opposing country would know that Canada has the power to destroy theirs too.

The Scrapping of the Avro Arrow

For

Producing such an expensive Aircraft would generate more jobs for Canadians, therefore boosting the economy

A jet interceptor would assure more safety towards the Canadian public during the Cold War.

The most technological aircraft made by Canada can boost the reputation of Canada while also proclaiming independence from the United States.

The Aircraft was the most advanced fighter plane of its time.
