The other thread on an assault on America got me curious.
Ok--a successful assault on the US is pretty much ASB for so many different reasons that it doesn't bear repeating here.
However --
German U-boats did prowl up and down the St. Lawrence River, sinking quite a few ships. [link]
And Hitler trying to purchase Anticosti Island, located at the mouth of the St. Lawrence, from a wealthy French chocolate-bar manufacturer in 1937. (Needless to say--the Canadian government got quickly involved in the deal and shut it down) [link]
But what if?
So--would a Nazi invasion of Canada be just as ASB as the American version?
Sure - a 2500 mile long supply chain is just as hard for the Nazis to pull off as a 3000 mile one but on the other hand -- there's a lot less population to deal with and a lot less built up infrastructure and defense.
Still think it's ASB but still...
I would like to hear some people's thoughts on this.
