I didn't think Canada controlled US assets. Undecided

Canada ordered it and asked for US assistance. They share the base and have planes from both on site and ready.

And what about Gregg's comment? Anything to say about the US controlling Canada or are you playing his chihuahua? You can't see the hypocrisy?

It may help to know what you are talking about.

North American air space is protected by a combination of US and Canadian planes under the ultimate command of a senior officer from both countries.

Quote:

North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD /ˈnɔːræd/), known until March 1981 as the North American Air Defense Command, is a combined organization of the United States and Canada that provides aerospace warning, air sovereignty, and protection for Canada and the continental United States.

Quote:

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Saturday that an “unidentified object” had been shot down by a US fighter jet over Canadian airspace on his orders.

https://edition.cnn.com/2023/02/11/politics/norad-additional-object-northern-can
ada/index.html

So Trudeau ordered the thing to be shot down and Norad complied as per their mandate. Norad is comprised of US and Canadian air force groups.

It might help yo know what you are talking about. I was picking Gregg up on his comment about Biden being Canada's PM, just after he told us who scrambled aircraft and who shot it down. It's seems you are intent on being the Chihuahua, the yapping sideshow..

It seems to me that it would be fairly simple to bring the balloons down slowly, for careful inspection, by making small holes in the fabric.

Yes - I wonder about that too.

With that large balloon last week they had it smash into the ocean.
It would have been so much better to make it descend slowly
so they could have an easy time figuring out what was in it.

I heard a news story early in the piece where some country tried to shoot one down and found it near impossible. They had to destroy it.

I assumed that this was the comment that you meant. I believe that Greggory was being facetious as this was the position incorrectly inferred in the post previous. He knew it was wrong, it wasn't meant to be taken literally is the way that I read it. It's a question - It is asking if Jasin believes that Biden is PM of Canada. It looks to me that you just got it wrong and still don't understand what was said.

Unless you are referring to a different comment in which case we are talking about different things.

Are you fixated on small dogs.

I suspect he plays guitar well. He seems to know what he is talking about and has some gorgeous guitars.

Funny that you think that someone with 122,000 posts isn't here enough?

I read that too -
something about how 1,000 shots with a canon didn't do anything.
They need to figure out a way to bring these balloons down in a controlled way.

To me, the US shot Biden's Party Balloon down. That's a fact. Not my fault Set pointed out his stupidity. Of course, Peccary always runs away when caught out. His intellectual ego is pathetic. Shame you just love to hump his leg.
