What if in the future their was an attack on Canada and instead of everyone asking what "America is going to do" they asked "What is Canada going to do".

Due to Canada's geographical position, it would most likely be the USA who were starting this hypothetical attack, so your statement is quite silly.


Yah your sorta right. Right now the countries invading us are USA, Russia and Greenland. All three countries are claiming more and more Canadian waters and soil for themselves. Its so bad that our Prime Minister deployed the army to keep them at bay. If a war were to start chances are one of those three would be the one invading Canada. We could take Greenland but without a tougher military the US or Russia would walk right over us. Yet another reason Canada should arm itself to the teeth. Wheres our aircraft carriers and battleships and our air force.

The only thing preventing USA and Russia from invading us for our resources. It would lead to WWIII because Russia wouldn't let the US take over Canada. US wouldn't let Russia take over Canada. And if either of them tried the whole Common Wealth would be on their ass. But that doesn't mean Canada should sit defenceless, we need a kick ass army to defend us!

Your reading way too much Tom Clancy. First of all if Canada wants to compete with the USA it would need to spend 50% of its gdp on the military.

Canada is the USA's largest trading partner, yes even bigger than China.

Americans view Canadians more favorably than any other nationality.

As you have said no country would dare to invade Canada other than USA. Russia would not dare invade it. Its military basically has almost no offensive capabilities at the moment and it will take a long time for it to catch up. Now please explain to me why the United States would invade a county that is its biggest trading partner, and that its people view the most favorably. Canada and the United States have not been in any serious disputes since British attacked the United States from Canada in the war of 1812. Canada would be wise to let America continue wasting hundreds of billions inventing the technologies everyone else will use a few years later, and use its money on more useful things, because it has 0 threats for the near future.
