Use them as bargaining chip until they're no longer useful. Cancel them as a result of American negotiation intractability.
Cool!
Talks on the U.K. joining the SAFE fund ended without agreement last week. Negotiations foundered over money, with Europe demanding more for Britain’s participation than the U.K. was willing to pay.
Well that's interesting
Governance in UK is still in shambles so that's unsurprising.
Seems like Labour is determined to show that they can also speed run an incompetent, dystopian surveillance state. Its almost impressive.
Who could have guessed that a return to Blairism would be so terrible
Canentry > Brexit
Time for Canada to join the EU!
Im gonna pass on that one. I like stronger ties to the EU but I dont want to be beholden to an entity that is largely shaped by the needs of Europeans. That works fine for Europe but we are not a European nation.
Especially with the chat control thing going on !
Fair point. I love stronger ties to them, a joint defense agreement, trade, etc. but you're right that we would always be a footnote in their considerations. Harmonizing our laws with the EU can always be done when it's favourable or reasonable for us.
I would like a land bridge pls
It's a short ferry ride from Newfoundland to France.
It’s some little island though is it not?
Yup. Actual France is still on the other side of the Atlantic, haha.
I was talking about the Territorial Collectivity of Saint Pierre and Miquelon, but sure your comment makes sense to.
50 years old and I can still learn something new. Whodathunkit.
Heading west too
Land border with Denmark already exists.
And a moat so we can separate from the USA

The US exists to be a global disruptor. Their purposely disruptive policies will continue after Trump is gone by younger politicans who share his views. The sooner, faster and more thoroughly Canada disengages from the US, the better. This shit isn’t ending when Trump leaves.
Petty protectionism dominating EU policy even in the midst of existential threat from Russia. Absolutely pathetic.
The EU wanted Britain to pay 6 billion to join the scheme on equal terms and they walked. Then the EU let's Canada join for 10 million. So Britain is expected to pay 600 x the amount Canada pays. Does that seem reasonable to anyone?
I mean if that doesn't tell you that Europe is simply not serious about its defence then consider that they also wanted Britain to give France the rights to fish its waters as part of the deal. Finally getting serious about defending Europe but first let's talk about fish... It's an absolute joke.
While Europe is facing existential threat the EU is bickering with it's closest allies over bullshit. It's core members are putting their own national interests above the security of the entire continent and I think it's absolutely damning of the EU's ability to navigate this kind of situation where we need decisive and selfless leadership.
Glad to see Canada involved though.
