Use the leftover slag to close off the Mediterranean at Gibraltar too while we're in Simcity God mode here.
The Kajigger of Gibraltar????

Worlds longest water slide. That's how gravity works right?
Hey y’all wanna go float The River this month?

All of them.
How long’s that gonna take?
This month.
South is down, so yeah!
Yeah but only if you do it in the winter unfortunately
Ocean front property in Saskatchewan and Manitoba.

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
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
It's been six years since we sailed away, and I just made Halifax yesterday! God damn them all!
Turning West Virginia into a lake would be quite a benefit.
Cant find a Northwest Passage? Make one!
This isn't any less insane than burning coal until the Northwest Passage opens.
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.
One could make the case that the loss of West Virginia is a benefit in itself.
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.
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.
I miss the bagel throwing days
Today's episode had the happiest of endings.
One pump one cream
I mean come one, who has been hurt by a Nuke or two ..... I think we can do it.
Nestle vibes...
We need to make the northwest passage we have the northwest passage at home this post is northwest passage at home
Could use that spinlaunch thing to skip a fucking massive flat stone across America
I bet there is oil in the Arctic, and OP is actually the US government. This is our future sheeple!!! Wake up!!!
I mean, there is oil in Alaska. Lots of it.
Shoot, one of Alaska's biggest northern settlements, if not the biggest, is an oil work camp. Look up Deadhorse / Prudhoe Bay. The road up there is totally worth taking if you're into birdwatching or really rugged roughing it.
That canal rips through the heart of the NWT, a hotbed of uranium, gold and diamond mining.
And gets close to the northern end of the tar sands.
Should be pretty easy! I hear digging canals with nukes is a great idea!
I have only one question: can I join? I‘ll bring my own shovel!
The Ohio & Erie Canal will rise again!
