In 1963, newspapers report ~ DIEFFENBAKER CLAIMS HUMANITARIAN NEED TO ANNEX USA TERRITORY. AMERICA REMAINS SOVEREIGN, PLEDGES RUSK.
Canadian Rep Expelled by Raymond SpeerThe Canadian representative to the American refugee capital in Cheyenne Mountain, Colorado, was expelled by President Dean Rusk today, following the Prime Minister's declaration that Canada's full strength and attention was needed to save the United Sttaes from a fatal calamity later this year.
"I wish the situation was less urgent," said Prime Minister Dieffenbaker. "I would enjoy Mr. Rusk's attempt to build a comic opera statelet in his little cave, if it wasn't for the millions in North America who would die for his failure to tend to essential business".
In his press conference, President Rusk says that "the Prime Minister forgets that there is still more left of the United States after World War Three after the missiles than there ever was of Canada, Our best figures, confirmed for me by Vice President McNamara, is that we had 180 million Americans in October 1962 and that we lost 25 million in the Third World War. The relatively few of us that died outnumber the Canadians alive today".
Secretary Rockefeller predicts that "our Canadian cousins will renounce their dreams of conquest and apologize for ever having them". Further, the Secretary of State promised to "continue unstinting aid to our allies, such as the free men of South Vietnam".

~ Vietnam would probably be unnecessary if the USSR was unable to supply the North Vietnamese.
~ This is like the mouse trying to eat the cat. Canada does not have the size to take us. I have nothing against Canadians. They just have apoor pick when it comes to governments. One of my ancestors comes from the place. Reading his application for US citizenship and his renouncing his alliegence ot Queen Victoria. If anything, if this alternate history were to take place, Canada might be annexed by the US, having themselves suffered nuclear damage both from the missiles and warheads that miss us and those directly shot at them by the Soviets.
~ The only way Canada would ever be involved in an annexation of the USA, or any part of it, is at the behest and with the backing of Britain, and perhaps other European powers--and in the aftermath of a nuclear war in 1962, I'd guess threy'd have troubles enough of their own not to want to take on the job of conquering even a weakened United States.
~ This sounds out-of-character for Canada, and they'd know that they were still hugely outnumbered and outweighed.
~ I would not put anything past our wonderful 'allies' of the EU especially looking at current events. But the problem is if a nuclear war were to take place back then, they too would be nuked by the Soviets and would likely be under armed invasion by Soviet and Warsaw pact forces.
