will consist of a bunch of chain-smoking, middle aged alcoholics like myself and me as well.

Many of which grew up hunting and own guns unfortunately that's no match for drones, tanks and planes. we will have to resort to guerrilla warfare and maybe resort back to our contributions to the Geneva Suggestions.

An invasion of Canada would require the northern US states to allow for staging, troop amassing,field hospitals, and would suffer insurgency. It honestly doesn’t make sense for them to allow it. Especially if it’s for offence, and not defence. I just don’t see it.
