I posed this same question last year here when we were talking about Canada's international security, by asking "But what if the U.S. itself turns crazy and comes for us?" I recall the general vibe of the replies being that we'd basically wake up to American flags instead of Canadian ones, and it'd be fairly smooth and overall nothing to really worry too much about. Almost like a larger business conglomerate buying the company you work for.
Now that it's actually a potentially real possibility, I find the vibe being more resistant, and perhaps bloodier than that. We shall see...well we probably won't, I still have a hard time believing it'll actually get to that point. But the fact we can actually debate it as a potentially real possibility is unsettling.
