Yes!

I feel it comes down to money as always. The modern world works on markets, not nationalism.

It's why these ideas get floated around without consequence. Business just ignores the ideas it till it impacts the bottom line. Then they make whatever changes are best for them, very seldom are the changes made for principles or morals.

The US knows this. They attack Canada without declaring war to convince businesses to invest in the US instead of Canada. It works for the most part, tragically.

"Everybody hated the Nazis but not enough had a problem doing business with them though."

Edit: Canada will be alright. We're bringing down interprovincial trade batriers. It'll help gets projects done all across the country. Out word is gold as well. We keep our promises, unlike the US who don't realise how destructive breaking all their agreements really is. It makes sense to invest in Canada. We just have to show that to the rest of the world.

There is a significant portion of the US that supports all this.

US of the past is the only nation to ever nuke an adversary. It wasn't necessary either. It was a show of force that could have been as effective if detonated at sea.
