JohnDClay,

Should be pretty easy! I hear digging canals with nukes is a great idea!

whitecapstromgard,

One could make the case that the loss of West Virginia is a benefit in itself.

doingthestuff,

There is some fine white water rafting there though. I don’t know what else, it’s the only reason I’ve ever gone there. Nice curvy backroads too.

Ah for just one time, I would take the Northwest passage to the sea.

Westward from the Potomac, t’is there t’was said to lie The sea route to the orient for which so many died

Classy,

God I love his songs.

Goddamn them all! I was told

We’d sail the seas for American gold

We’d fire no guns, shed no tears!

Now I’m a broken man in a Halifax pier

The last of Barrett’s privateers

Turning West Virginia into a lake would be quite a benefit.

    We can spare Huntington. It can be an island. Residents will approve as their property values will increase because now they have a lake as a neighbor instead of West Virginia.

    theangryseal,

    You know, I was going to defend my home state but as I typed my comment I realized that she has no redeeming qualities aside from being pretty when no people are around. Especially where I’m from.

    It’s all cousin fucking and methamphetamines. I wouldn’t take a job that offered me $100 an hour to go back. Seriously. I hate even driving through the shithole.

    Maybe it’s better up north.

    Frozengyro,

    Cousin fucking and meth? Well damn, I guess I’m buying me a trailer!

    Touching_Grass,

    How many places in the world do you think you could describe as cousin fucking meth heads and have someone go “sounds like my hometown”

    thantik,

    I’m from Florida and doesn’t sound like it’s narrowing down any of the lists that I have…

    If your top of the head answer isn’t Palatka or Ocala though…

    UrPartnerInCrime,

    First time I’ve seen Ocala referenced on here and it’s about cousin fucking and meth. Wouldn’t have it any other way.

    Never change, Florida.

    JungleJim,

    Most.

    azertyfun,

    No, that’s US Defaultism, fuck off with that shit.

    Here it’s all cousin fucking and alcoholism.

    CurlyChopz,

    JungleJim,

    Oh that’s an accent? Sorry, thought it was meth jaw.

    @CurlyMoustache@lemmy.world avatar

    Same here, I think. I drink alot and I fuck alot, and do not know who my cousins are. But hey! Free healtchare 👌

    JungleJim,

    If you don’t know your cousins, how do you know you’ve never “known” your cousins?

    vaultdweller013,

    It would be good for wind power, maybe. Fuck lets just turn it into a giant nuclear power plant.

    @SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

    Sounds like you should speak with Robert Evans (not the director, the journalist) of Behind the Bastards, he wants to nuke the great lakes, so may as well tie your plan into his.

    drcobaltjedi,

    I miss the bagel throwing days

    ComradePorkRoll,

    Today’s episode had the happiest of endings.

    drcobaltjedi,

    I usually wait till he’s finished a topic before binging the whole topic. Was it only a 2 parter?

    ComradePorkRoll,

    It ended up being a filler episode.

    Nails,

    One pump one cream

    XTornado,

    I mean come one, who has been hurt by a Nuke or two … I think we can do it.

    This isn't any less insane than burning coal until the Northwest Passage opens.

    Kbin_space_program, (edited )

    It's considerably more insane because its doubling an existing massive river from northern Saskatchewan up to the exit point for no reason. Particularly in an area where there isn't enough infrastructure to support begin to support such an operation.

    Using the same start point you already have the Mackenzie river going to Lake Athabasca. From there you have existing rivers and canals getting you to Lake Winnipeg, albeit somewhat inefficiently and would need expanding to get bigger ships through. Although you might need some locks to be added to get around the dams on Lake Winnipeg.

    Making the only real canal section being Winnipeg to Superior, and then you're in the great lakes.

    If you want the crazy option, get up to Lake Athabasca then go out through the Peace River to end at Bella Bella Coola, BC. Only have to cross several massive mountain ranges and do the crazy descent from BCs central interior plateau down to the ocean.

    Electricorchestra,

    Saskatchewanians will only allow this if we’re allowed to directly pump oil into it 😂😂😂

    Joris,

    Isn’t there such a canal in Russia? Connecting the baltic sea with… erhm… ice.
