…Of British Colombia, Canada?
Army records indicate diver may have found bomb lost by the U.S. Air Force in 1950
The Royal Canadian Navy is sending a ship to determine if a diver has discovered "the lost nuke" — a Mark IV bomb that went missing after a U.S. bomber crashed off B.C.'s North Coast in the early days of the Cold War. Sean Smyrichinsky found the mystery object during a recent diving trip near Banks Island. "I got a little far from my boat and I found something that I'd never ever seen before," he recalled. "It resembled, like, a bagel cut in half, and then around the bagel these bolts molded into it." When he got back to the ship he tried to describe the object to his crew."

Given it's likely condition after all these years, I can't imagine why you would want it…. |

Diplomatic channels have been opened. If Canada agrees to return the device and throw in some free concerts by Rush, the US agrees to return Justin Bieber and Celine Dion and not seek restitution. |

That sounds like a reasonable offer! |

No, no! Keep Celine and the Beebs! Here, have your bomb back! Just don't send those two back, pleasssssssse! And since the Uranium was likely of Canadian origin, we'll alienate that claim too if you'll take Avril off our hands as well. Oh, and Carley Ray Jepsen too, please. We'll even throw in some Tim Horton's doughnuts and premium coffee during the Rush concerts if you play ball! On a more serious note that makes at least three 'broken arrows' which went astray in Candian territory as far as I know. Mt Kologet, Rivière du Loups and this one. You really must be more careful lads! Cheers.

Canadian Navy is suggesting now that if the object is from the bomber, it's not a real bomb, but a dummy. But hopefully that's just a ruse as we'll apparently need it to keep Bieber and Dion from returning. |

"On a more serious note that makes at least three 'broken arrows' which went astray in Candian territory as far as I know." Consider yourselves to have been sufficiently warned!!! Seriously, the linked article and another I read say that the uranium was replaced with lead for this training mission. The Canadian govt. is trying to verify this claim just in case someone was attempting to blow smoke up through their southern exposure. |

I know how they feel. I lost my keys once, for a whole weekend! |

Stargate SG1 was filmed in BC. They used nukes like it was WD40. So I'm sure they just lost one. |

So, basically the U.S. has bombed Canada with nuclear weapons more than it has bombed the USSR. |
