Nukes in Canada without permission?

Ex-marine claims nuclear weapons stored at Newfoundland base
From CBC News website .. is this for real .. what else has happened that we don't know about?

By searching with Google, these are the only news papers where I was able to find mention of this story Albuquerque Tribune, bulletin of Atomic Scientists, Not sure who it is, some media company called Scrips and the Sun Sentinel. This is scary, Canadians should be up in arms, why were nukes in Canada in the first place? Who allowed this to happen? Why is this not headline news in Canada. WTF!!!

This is scary, or I just don't pay attention to the world around me. "Canada's Nuclear Legacy" from a McLean's article posted at The Canadian Encyclopedia.
