The EU would take advantage and increase the global disavowal of Trump
No reason not to annex Canada except for Quebec due to being French and pure.
The US would lose all ties with the western world and we would effectively lose our overseas empire
Long time coming.
obviously nukes
kys faggot cuck
the nuclear powers of Europe would issue an ultimatum?
this
whats the point in allying, helping their wars and bending over for their trade deals if they just randomly invade allies
Annexing Canada by force would be retarded. If we wanted Canada as US territory, we'd encourage their provinces to secede and join us. Of course, that would also be retarded, but not as dumb as military annexation. We could put extremely high trade barrier on them, and tell the provinces that they should secede from Canada and become US states if they want to begin trading with zero tariffs. secession is legal in the Canadian, not just for Quebec. There would be resistance for obvious reasons related to Canadian nationalism, and not wanting to join a country that had betrayed you in this way; but that would probably only last a few decades, or until a younger generation that wan't politically aware during the beginning of the squabble became the largest voting block in Canada.
We're better off with Canada as an ally, than as a bunch of states. I don't want Canadians voting in US elections of getting money from the federal government.
Imagine the Vietnam war except the Vietcong could pour through your border, blend in with your population and start planting ieds wherever they want. :^)
Canadians are too placated and culturally close to Americans to play jungle hide and seek
your way of life would be so minimally impacted, would it be worth it to go full guerrilla warfare?
This mentality and lack of a human soul is why Americans lose against rice farmers and goat herders.
but they were a poor impoverished easily swayed people. You are a first world nation with first world smarts, why would you jeopardize that? You would have to much to lose
"lose"
we only lost because of public opinion towards the war. Besides that, Canadians have a whole lot to lose in a war and you really can't compare yourself to the Vietcong.
Hopefully this happens regardless
Probably have a lot of condemnation but ultimately nothing will happen because no one would gain anything from direct retaliation.
your quality of life would be impacted severely
>we only lost because of public opinion towards the war.
not him but if the US ever invaded canada, the public opinion would be extremely negative since there is absolutely no legitimate reason to invade us. most of your soldiers would probably desert.
Yeah probably. I could never bring myself to kill Canadians
this whole trade fiasco has shown me just how superficial our ties really are. canadians don't like americans at all, they just tolerate us. fuck 'em then
It'd be really cute if the new states were little maple leafs on the flag instead of stars
I mean gradually and it's whatever. We're already becoming a demographically lat am tier cunt and climate change will likely fuck everything up anyways. At least I can watch our elite and generals throw tantrums over the years over it.
Literally this. Why the fuck would you want foreign people voting in Federal matters?
>gradually
No. We would be fucked without cheap oil. Our entire system relies on it. How about instead of being apathetic towards the future, you do something about it
We're almost energy independent and our oil that comes from mid east is relatively low.
>wahh you can't complain just fix it!
Oh lord. As if the demographic nightmare is even remotely fixable by now. We're a dead man walking. And I obviously can do fuck all about climate change.
NATO would be bound to defend Canada
Nobody would even notice it.
Its fucking Canada, who cares?
You can vote. You'd be doing more than 50% of Americans in the last election. Also we are extremely dependent on foreign oil. Domestic production is expensive and subsidized to keep prices down. We have been importing oil since the 40s and even during the oil crisis of the 70s we were producing about 60% of our consumption rate
>Alberta
>Rebels
what a terrible image
We'll be fine.

And it's too late to vote. Like I said we're a dead man walking. The time to avoid the demographic catastrophe was the 70s.
>be mean to friend
>friend says you're being mean
>call friend an ungrateful asshole
>tfw no coalition of european soldiers liberating canada to return the favour for ww2
I almost feel like modern Europeans wouldn't be willing to drop their comfy social programs and fight for a country on another continent.
thats why the draft exist
yeah, why would any retard sign up to fight on the other side of the world for no discernible reason? Maybe even multiple times in a row?
Because the Federal matters would then include the formerly-Canadian matters
The sooner, the better.
In a world where America is not protecting them anymore they would have no choice but to return to their former military glory
je me battrais pour le Québec
French mercenaries enlisting in Québec militia, starting by purging anglos
Quebec is a shithole. As someone who lives in the US near Quebec and has dealt with people from there and people from Canada proper I get why the rest of Canada wants virtually nothing to do with them whatsoever.
So you guys get federal funding and we get stuck with dealing with your shitty laws and trying to reconcile them till the end of time? Fuck that noise.
kek when france suffered quebec didn't want to help you
yeah but think about all the clay
underrated
France will defend Québec
>why would any retard sign up to fight on the other side of the world for no discernible reason?
dunno, must be a north american thing
>quebec
>pure
Nigga how high are you?
Why would the US annex what is essentially a brother nation?
If anything the existence and power of the US is what keeps Canada safe from foreign treats.
I'd start hurling Molotovs at every McDonalds I saw.
>treats
kek, I meant threats
Et c'était pour le meilleur. La France est une cause perdue, le Québec représente notre salue.
>we get stuck with dealing with your shitty laws
no. federal law overrules state law.
almost all of it is useless ice and uninhabitable rock.
the eradication of the mutt race
You would be surprised how many people in this very country disagree with that statment as absurd as it should be to do so.
>It's another "people praise a a part of the world wrongly because they simply have no understanding of the area since their news isn't in english" thread
you and what army
What the fuck did they teach you in high school?
Yeah, but Canada has more freshwater lakes than the rest of the world combined, 10% of Canada's surface area is lakes. If fresh water scarcity becomes a real thing, Canada will be invaded and secured by the US faster than Canadians could say the first 2 lines of the US national anthem.
To be fair though the entire canadian population of canada is less than that of california. So half of that isn't exactly a lot of people
No.... we'd probably just sell them water. You have a very skewered unsderstanding of international politics probably fueled by too much hollywood.
We have the population smaller than most European countries, we'd have plenty excess to export even if we had a tenth of the water we have.
EU army would probably become reality. UK and France increases their nuke stockpiles.
What would Singapore do?
Nothing. We'll continue to suck everyone's dicks like we've been doing so far.
We are friendly to China and North Korea you know.
>He doesnt understand the geopolitics of fear
>If I dont control it, someone else might
When the world becomes Cape Town tier, exporting isnt going to mean shit. Because countries with the capabilities to annex Canada arent going to sit there and let someone else annex them and control the flow of export water to everyone else.
This same reason is why China needs Tibet, their largest rivers source from there, the idea that someone else can control where their rivers source from is unacceptable, so they took it first.
>America destroying best america with gun nuts, and mutts
Why would you do that?
The differece is the US is our strongest ally and knows it can conquer us at any time. No other nation would be capable to invading us across the ocean with the US as oyr ally so there is no risk of someone else annexing us. Sp from a political and financial aspect it maeks far more sense to simply maintain the same relationship with us. Don't act high amd migty unless you plan to provide a real arguement as to why it would make more sense for them to invade, makes you look like a clown.
