    What’s the source for this? Is it anything other than CCP propaganda intended to drive a wedge between the US and Canada?

      Yes, maoists in China created a detailed invasion plan for the US to invade Canada, infiltrated the US government and then had them “declassified” in 1974 in order to create a mild temporary tension between the two close knit NATO allies.

        Yeah, in the 1920’s to boot. If B-movie (or nowadays just any movie studio) were on here, they’d take what you just wrote, add time travel to it and make it into a movie without giving you credit. And they’d probably find some way to use AI in it too.

      The USA had a standing policy of having a war plan ready for every contingency. I suggest looking up “War Plan Red” on wikipedia, its a good read!

        Including:

        Alien invasions. Including variables for infiltration and technological advantage.

        Zombie outbreaks, magical or biological in nature.

        Fighting a war against every nation on Earth at the same time.

        All kinds of civil war scenarios.

    • Lmao wut?

      You have limitless information at your fingertips and you refuse to do an iota of research before jumping on “China bad”?

      Fuck China, but for the love of God… literally attempt googling something next time 🤦‍♂️

        I like how people forget that almost every countries military has plans to invade/defend their neighbourhood, better to have plans ready for that time then not having any plan.

      Why would it be? It’s always good to have contingency plans. This became even more clear in the 30s when political instability of rife everywhere. Never knew what your neighbors were going to do in a decade.
