Canada Reveals Missile Defense Shield

In summary, a four billion dollar tetron missile defense shield was deployed over the weekend in Vancouver, British Columbia. The new system, powered by hydro energy, is capable of deflecting ballistic missiles and protecting Western Canada from attacks by countries such as Russia, China, America, North Korea, and possibly Samoa. The deployment occurred while the world was focused on the new Survivor series and has sparked some humorous reactions.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA-- Canadians will be able to sleep better tonight, knowing that the four billion dollar tetron missile defense shield is now operational. The new system, capable of deflecting ballistic missiles, was quietly deployed over the weekend, while the world was busy watching the new Survivor series.

The Pacific missile shield generator is responsible for protecting Western Canada from ballistic missiles.

The hydro-powered energy shield is capable of resisting airborn missile attacks from the Russians, Chinese, Americans, and other rogue nations such as the North Koreans, and quite possibly the Samoans. [continued]

Well I do anyway--many Canadian friends. But if Canada did install a defense shield, I'm not so sure I'd question it. You folks get too left-wing, and you may be added to the "Axis of Evil." :wink:

Canada's Missile Defense Shield was officially revealed by the Canadian government on February 7, 2005, after years of negotiations and discussions with the United States.

4. How does the Missile Defense Shield work?

The Missile Defense Shield operates by using a network of sensors, radars, and satellites to detect and track any potential missile threats. Once a threat is identified, an interceptor missile is launched to destroy it before it reaches Canadian airspace. The system also has the capability to relay information to the United States' missile defense system, providing a larger scope of protection.
