US citizen here. I have become such a huge fan of France.
France manages to get a sub to us before the UK even deigns to comment. That says it all. Merci beacoup!
Well done on falling for the propaganda
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.
There were some people wishing that stalin would join forces with hitler to take over the world and not separating shortly after.
We are in the echo of that timeline.
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 🇫🇷🤝🇨🇦

Well this year is going just smoothly.
Better get that bug-out bag ready. Remember iodine tablets.
Would a french submarine wear its hat like this:
or like this:
Asking the real questions
You should cross post this to non credible defense. They’d love it.
The top one looks like he got hit on the head.
Holy shit I laughed out loud…
Let’s go! France is here to protect Canada!
Idk about that. Other commenters have better explanations that aren’t sensational.
Time for Germany to upgrade and build more submarines.
Finally. Letting the French keep a little bit of Canada pays off.
Pointing “am I a joke to you?”
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.
Don’t forget all the cruise missiles - it’s not just for attacking things at sea.
France coming to save America once again!
Don’t tease me!
NOBODY backs an American Revolution like the French!
🇫🇷🦅🎆
Fake
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.

An article using random reddit comments as a source should be outright ignored, IMO.
Especially when said reddit comment has since been edited and no longer reflects what’s written in the article. If you bother to follow the reddit link in the article, you’ll find someone has replied with an actual source (from France) that shows that the photos are legit, however the title of this post (and the original posts on reddit) are misleading.
This isn’t in reaction to American threats, it’s a French naval defense company showing off their submarine in the hopes of obtaining a 60 billion dollar contract for twelve submarines that the Canadian government announced last summer.
What the fuck would Canada, a non nuclear weapons country, want a nuclear sub for? Diesel battery subs are inherently stealthier because you can’t turn a nuclear reactor off to go quiet and they don’t need to stay submerged forever to hide where ballistic missiles are and they’re not going to be power projecting to keep Iceland from sending another landing party with Erikson. It’s not like Canada doesn’t have an abundance of ports for refueling or a military vulnerability to oil embargos. It’s not even compatible with their primary method of nuclear fuel since it requires nearly weapons grade refined uranium and the whole point of CANDU heavy water reactors is to not refine.
Exactly. OP is super fake.
Source?
Here’s a French article about it. It’s not a show of force, it’s a naval defense company showing off their submarine in the hopes of being granted a 60 billion dollar contract for 12 submarines that the Canadian government announced last summer.
