Oh good grief. If the US invaded Canada the war would be over before the Canadians had a chance to notice there was a war.

- acveilleux 10y agoI'm sure it'd be very awkward over at Norad when half the duty staff has to round up the other half as PoWs...
- Teever 10y agoAnd America will be greeted as liberators too I'm sure?
- TeMPOraL 10y agoOf course. This would be a direct proof that Canada needed a lesson on how to run a democracy. They should be grateful.
- rdsnsca 10y agoSomeone will have to teach the US how to run a democracy first.
- muninn_ 10y agoprobably All joking aside (and I love Canada and think it's fantastic) it simply would not be a contest at all for the US military. That's not a slight against Canada, it's just a fact.
- Teever 10y agoI think you're missing my point. The Iraqi army and government fared terribly against the US when they invaded. It would be foolish to describe what came next as success or winning for the United States. Any attempt to actually occupy Canada by the United States would be absolutely brutal. This is a literate, technologically advanced and socially cohesive group of people. Furthermore the geographic setting would mean that the United States would have to spread itself extremely thin or allow resistance to crop up in areas outside their narrow sliver of occupation.
- muninn_ 10y agoNo I didn't miss your point I just think you're completely incorrect. A US invasion of Canada would look more like Nazi Germany rolling through The Netherlands.
