French nuclear attack submarine surfaces at Halifax, Nova Scotia, after Trump threatens to annex Canada (March 10)

This isn’t a show of force, it’s a demonstration for Canada who is planning to buy a number of these submarines from France.

France manages to get a sub to us before the UK even deigns to comment. That says it all. Merci beacoup!

Bonjour!

JT was just in France as one of his last acts as PM. Mere days later this bad boy shows up in a Halifax harbour. 🤔🤔🤔 Merci a la belle France 🇫🇷🤝🇨🇦

Could have imagined this happening as little as 3 years ago.

An ally sending a nuclear deterrent into our waters as a message/warning to the US. This normally happens to countries like Iran or North Korea

Never have I been more pleased to see a foreign navies nuclear attack sub in my nations waters.

(odd times)

Would a french submarine wear its hat like this:

or like this:

Let's go! France is here to protect Canada!

US citizen here. I have become such a huge fan of France.

Current timeline feels like one alternative Red Alert timeline, where alongside of Hitler, Stalin also got erased from history, and now Russia and the US have turned fascistic.

Important note: The "Nuclear" in "Nuclear attack submarine" means that it is powered by a nuclear reactor. It does not refer to its armament. An "attack" submarine means it is designed to attack ships and other submarines and these are typically not capable of carrying and launching ICBMs. Nuclear-armed deterrent submarines are called Ballistic Missile Submarines.

“Bring it” - France probably

Despite the clear evidence pointing to the image being old, the photograph is still circulating on social media platforms and has been featured in Google searches related to the supposed annexation threat. This highlights how misinformation can easily spread online, especially when fueled by sensational claims and misleading images.

Finally. Letting the French keep a little bit of Canada pays off.

Don’t tease me!

NOBODY backs an American Revolution like the French!

🇫🇷🦅🎆

Fuck yeah.

Fuck yes, France.

During a period with seemingly very little good news in the world, I really needed this. Assuming it was done for the optics it conveys, it's some much needed reassurance that our allies actually have our back. Granted, we're still absolutely fucked in the short term if the worst happens, it's still nice to see.

O hai!

Time for Germany to upgrade and build more submarines.
