    I see Canada more likely to be like Afghanistan or Vietnam. I definitely don’t believe one strike would win anything. I was raised by a delta special forces Vietnam vet green beret and he would constantly say NEVER underestimate guerrilla warfare. I just don’t think they would be subdued easily and I do think they would be skilled with guerrilla tactics and withstanding the cold. I think the friendship between Canada and America would be a huge blow to troop morale. I don’t think Mexico would fall easily either and 99% of Americans in the west anyway have Mexican friends(very bad for morale). I think Mexico would put up a fight and I think both countries would wear down the moral of the military and cost way too much. The only effective strategy would be to do an internal coup after heavily propagandizing the populations of the countries and I do see that as a possibility for Canada
