A war would be disastrous for both countries. Especially the US.
As President Donald Trump relentlessly threatens to annex Canada, some Canadians are worried that an American invasion could one day become a reality.
How would that scenario play out? Looking at the sheer size of the American military, many people might believe that Trump would enjoy an easy victory.
That analysis is wrong. If Trump ever decides to use military force to annex Canada, the result would not be determined by a conventional military confrontation between the Canadian and American armies. Rather, a military invasion of Canada would trigger a decades-long violent resistance, which would ultimately destroy the United States.
But in this nightmare scenario, could Canadians successfully resist an American invasion? Absolutely. I know this because I have studied insurgencies around the world for more than two decades, and I have spent time with ordinary people who have fought against powerful invading armies.
I have always been a peaceful and patient person, but there is no way I’m letting a fascist foreign government take over. I would gladly even suicide bomb a foreign invader if it thrwarted their advance and protected my adult kids , and fellow country members, future.
please stop radicalizing yourself and others.
Who’s radicalizing? There’s no US invaders on Canadian soil, what are we radicalizing against?
A fascist takeover of Canada would inevitably result in a guerilla war. This is just a fact.
There’s no religious agenda here, just defending my own country, the same as a military enlisted would do. How do you think we are here today and not living a Hitler regime; people gave their lives for their country. Is Remembrance Day a poppy celebration of radicalism?
I dunno, I look and sound just like an American. I know I’ll die in a real takeover but it doesn’t mean I won’t do some homemade devices and grab an arm to defend my country.
