    I assume the US military has an invasion plan on the books for about every country on the face of the earth. They gotta spend all the trillions of dollars of black money on something.

    To be fair, this is hardly a plan, it’s just “head north to your nearest Canadian city”

      When I drove near the Canadian border there were intersections the just had a sign with an arrow that said Canada.

      So just go north and watch for the Canada signs.

      Lmao the most recent Canadian W is from the 18th century. Are you implying that the modern Canadians military and modern US military are equals?

    I appreciate that the prairie provinces are just “Ehh, just go generally north.”

    Also, scary thing is, that’s exactly how to do it.

    Today all they would have to do is stand at the border and yell “We’ll give you American citizenship and you can trade your $CAD for $USD at par”

    I’ll go fetch the white flags

    What’s the source for this? Is it anything other than CCP propaganda intended to drive a wedge between the US and Canada?

      Yes, maoists in China created a detailed invasion plan for the US to invade Canada, infiltrated the US government and then had them “declassified” in 1974 in order to create a mild temporary tension between the two close knit NATO allies.

        Yeah, in the 1920’s to boot. If B-movie (or nowadays just any movie studio) were on here, they’d take what you just wrote, add time travel to it and make it into a movie without giving you credit. And they’d probably find some way to use AI in it too.

    • Lmao wut?

      You have limitless information at your fingertips and you refuse to do an iota of research before jumping on “China bad”?

      Fuck China, but for the love of God… literally attempt googling something next time 🤦‍♂️

      Why would it be? It’s always good to have contingency plans. This became even more clear in the 30s when political instability was rife everywhere. Never knew what your neighbors were going to do in a decade.
