Canada wouldn't join the American revolt against the British because it was majority French and had other priorities. After the Revolution, Canada was guarded (occupied?) by the British who threw back the American invaders with ease in 1812. After that fiasco the US became preoccupied with slavery and never got around to invading Canada again, although the invasion plan was kept fresh. Today there is no plan to invade and a trade deficit is really an insufficient pretext for war. In any case, Trump is antiwar and prefers tariffs to tanks. It is entirely up to the people of Canada to decide whether they prefer DC to Ottawa. Me? I remain supporter of the Confederacy so my advice is: stay independent at all costs.
