No stupid question… it seems Trump is ready to invade (military) Panama and Greenland (red white blueland), so even if with Canada he always talk about economic war and annexing Canada blablabla…
What would happen if USA invades Canada? What would be the reaction of the Canada King (Charles III is the king of Canada)? The Commonwealth? NATO?
It’s the world’s longest border, a military defeat is certain but hundreds or thousands of Canadian partisans will easily get through to commit acts of terrorism and sabotage.
My thought was that there’s just so much land. It’s inhospitable, yes, but there so much they’d never be able to cover it all. They could invade and take the cities, but there’s absolutely no way they could control the countryside.
Yes that’s another really good point. Any sort of foreign support from Russia or China or Europe that brings weapons in would mean a permanent thorn in their side, Canada wouldn’t see peace for decades, if at all. Similar to the quagmire in Afghanistan and Iraq.
That’s in addition to how easily we could strike at their home territory in cross border raids, which will be even more unacceptable domestically.
