We have always been joking about the US needing oil more than it needs a northern neighbor. But what if it really did happen? Well it seems both sides already had a plan for many years.

All of these plans were drawn up a long time ago so it might be adjusted a bit for modern combat.

Regardless of when it was planned the idea is still interesting from a strategic point of view.

Old news, really. I mentioned those ideas quite some time ago. Every country on the planet has plans for both invading and defending against it's neighbors. To not do so would be military suicide if there's an unfriendly government imposed on said neighbors...worst case scenario style thinking.

I highly doubt Canada has any plans for Invading you.

Invading? Who knows. Wanna bet there are filing cabinets packed with defense paper work somewhere.

Considering that we have the 2nd largest oil reserves in the world, including the tar sands... I would say we better have something planned ! :D

Thousands of soldiers trampled to death after following the smell of maple syrup and pancakes in to the woods. Moose hoof prints were found on many of the bodies. One official was quoted as saying it was the most deadly natural disaster to face US troops in quite some time.
