> the politicians are unlikely to say it outright but I think this is pretty clearly aimed at the US and making it too costly to do so.

lol this makes zero impact on that. The Canadian government doesn't even think it's own solder would fight the USA or sadly even run an insurgency. It's the consequence of trying to minimize nationalism and being cultural dominated by the USA for decades.

If the USA wants Canada it gets Canada.
