Submission statement: While Canadian military planners consider an American invasion **unlikely**, they are still planning for it in light of threats made by the Trump administration over the past year. Trump had not made statements about Canada becoming a ’51st state’ in a while, however, today Trump posted a picture in which he could be seen sitting next to a map of the Americas which included Canada, Greenland and Venezuela as American-controlled territories.
Military planners believe that “American forces [could] overcome Canada’s strategic positions on land and at sea within a week and possibly as quickly as two days.” Therefore, “the military envisions unconventional warfare in which small groups of irregular military or armed civilians would resort to ambushes, sabotage, drone warfare or hit-and-run tactics. … The aim of such tactics would be to impose mass casualties on U.S. occupying forces, the official said.”
I really love this world and timeline we are in. Can I wake up soon though?

I mean, you just have to see how quickly Trump moved from Venezuela to Greenland once he was done and how Canada will be completely surrounded by the USA if he annexes it to understand why “Trump has been quiet for a while about it” only worries them more.

I think they’re playing the wrong game.
Guerilla warfare doesn’t work if all the U.S. does is send Delta to blackbag the PM.
