The only thing that is a problem for Trump concerning an invasion of Canada and Greenland is that he doesn't have the slightest justification to do so unlike with Venezuela, hence why he can't do it - yet!

He'll do it regardless of whether or not he has jurisdiction, because he thinks just like Hitler.

Gonna blame our Maple Syrup for their obesity problems ;) 

Canada is huge, bigger than the US. The US can't afford to occupy Canada. Heck they can't even afford to occupy Venezuela, it's hit and run tactics and hoping threats will be enough to 'run' Venezuela. 

But we are third on the list for biggest oil reserves, after Venezuela and Saudi Arabia :/

Whole list of geopolitical targets.

Venezuela: 'captured' 
Saudi Arabia: Deals made, US bases installed, 'excused' for 9/11 (15 of the hijackers came from Saudi Arabia, trained in Afghanistan and key people in Hamburg, Germany. Iraq was not involved at all...)
Canada: Tarifs and threats for now.
Iran: Trump can't wait to throw the country into civil war and go after its oil.
Iraq: Already handled, US bases installed.
Kuwait: Playing along for now, US bases installed.
UEA: The biggest bastards next to Israel on US' pay list, behind the genocide in Sudan, US bases installed.
Russia: Trump so wants to give them Ukraine to get the oil flowing again.
Libya: Handled, 'pacified' in 2011 with Nato support now ready for US/EU oil companies, US non-permanent "contingency location" in the Sahara at al-Wigh

Nigeria: Bombing in progress


Greenland: The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) estimated that northeastern Greenland's offshore areas could hold about 31.4 billion barrels of oil equivalent (MMBOE).

Greenland has banned exploration which surely is a thorn in Trump's eyes with estimates close to US/Nigeria oil reserves yet far shy of Canada's. However our oil has high initial costs to extract, mostly oil sands (97%). Not as lucrative as other places.


Trump thinks like a businessman, not a very good one but he runs the country like a mafia boss running a business. Extortion is far easier and cheaper than occupation. So he'll continue with that trying to get Canada to capitulate and become a state. Which won't happen, but we better look elsewhere for business while Trump remains in power.
