All options are on the table

The biggest issue with Canada is the programming of public such that US and imperialist foreign policy is a "force for good" in the world. If meetings with China and Russia are not being done right now, many options are off the table, and the only path forward is fatigue until Canada capitulates heavily to US extortion, possibly agreeing to becoming a possession.

Another option is for Canada to significantly expand debt for UBI/income support of Canadians such that Canadian debt levels match the US's and so it is no longer attractive to conquer us.
