Do u believe that Canada can beat the US in a war ? 🪖

A guy at work tried to tell me that they actually can. He claimed that since we lost our power and associations with NATO and the UN that would be our main issue. And he also added that our allies would not assist us in a ground or air type combat simply because Canada is not really a world threat and that they are our neighbors. He said something about a missile that they have that could disappear and reappear at will. Im thinking to myself, this guy clearly does not know about our secret operations programs. And our underground unit in Area 51.
I heard that they have some stuff there that could wipe any country off the map with ease. And that coming from a military guy I know here on the water. Anyway, what do you think. Could Canada really beat the US in an all out war. Any style. Comments please.
Let the chips fall where they may. Best answer wins. ☺

The NATO treaty does not activate commitments when a member is a starting belligerent.
That said the US would not invade Canada. Its not worth it and would have no support.

For hypothetical deathmatch purposes:
Militarily, Canada is no match for the US
The state of Wisconsin puts more armed people in the woods during deer season than Canada has ground pounders. (791,023 vs 106,700 for Canada). Not a straight up match since its comparing prime age military, reserves, and rangers with a bunch of civilians but gives an idea of the disparity in strength

@Arnoldjrmmer I agree. One branch of military here in the US can take Canada.

@Arnoldjrmmer Taking and holding are two very different things. And the USA sucks at fighting insurgencies.

Plus. for Americans their idea of "cold weather fighting" is 2 inches of snow and 0 C.

You guys dress for an arctic expedition to go to Sundance Film Festival. 😂
