POD: After WWI, the UK considered transferring its Western Hemispheric colonies to Canada. Most discussion on this site talks about the potential of Canada having some Caribbean territory. However, the UK also considered transferring the Falkland Islands to Canada as well. Suppose this happens. Canada now inherits the Falkland Islands ownership dispute.
Galtieri will likely view Canada as just as weak an opponent as the UK and would probably still invade. Canada's prime minister in OTL in this period was Pierre Trudeau. Assuming Trudeau is still prime minister, how does he respond to the Argentine invasion? How does this affect Canadian politics? Can Canada take it back by itself?
I do see the USA taking a much more pro-Canada line than it was pro-UK in OTL because this is a war between two Western hemisphere countries, so no Monroe Doctrine issues.
