I wish I shared in the optimism, but I could easily see them invading, and treating this land as an exploitable frontier. Incentivizing millions of their own citizens to move to their new colony to develop it for their own personal enrichment would mean we could quickly find ourselves outnumbered and displaced.

I was thinking like this a few weeks ago but with more thought I think we are geographically too difficult to invade by force. The rest of the world would also have boots on the ground here to help us out.

Also I think the vast majority of Americans would just refuse the order to do it. And there would also be a lot of Americans on Canada's side. I don't think very many people there are keen on a war with Canada because it's just straight up stupid

Europe's about to be very busy in a land war with Russia.
