If U.S. President Donald Trump fails in his stated goal of annexing Canada through economic force, what would happen if he ordered the world’s most powerful military to invade?
Some experts and academics say it’s a notion too preposterous to even contemplate. But Aisha Ahmad isn’t one of them.
“When you look at the power (imbalance) between the U.S. and Canada, an invasion would immediately result in the defeat of the Canadian Armed Forces,” said the University of Toronto political science professor, who last month published an essay on the subject in The Conversation.
“But a conventional military victory is not the end of this story. It’s just the beginning.”
It would another Vietnam or Afghanistan. They’d invade, kill a few thousand maybe million people, mire around, and then retreat again with their funds drained and thousands of crippled veterans with PTSD.
vietnam but the viet cong can drive to your house
And the Viet Cong look exactly like the Americans this time around. Good luck!
Well they looked like the south Vietnamese, so that really was a problem.
There would also be an internal insurgence south of the border to support the canucks, especially along the border states.
Don’t forget the “mission accomplished” picture while they retreat.
It would be way worse than Vietnam or Afghanistan. Both countries would be devastated and it could spark world war three or a second american civil war.
But a few newly enriched white dudes so 👌
