Not when you lose to Canada.
- hughdbrown 13y agoHey, Canada has been invaded by the US on at least three occasions -- Revolutionary War, War of 1812, and the Fenian Raids. I don't know of another country with a 3-0 record against the US.

It's judgment call.)
- dragonwriter 13y agoCanada wasn't an independent country for any of those (particularly the first two and the beginning of the third), and wasn't a component of the country that won the first of those.
