I hear ya, and mean this with all due respect and just as a counterpoint.
I think the world, and especially Canada, aren’t wrong to expect Americans as a whole to not let it get to that point - democratically, seriously. We have been, happily and willingly, consuming an entire culture of freedom and defence against tyranny. Your news is our news, including all of the violence and rationalization of it - defence of freedom.
We know your massive protests and hard won civil rights because your media is our media just like your products are our bilateral lifelines.
If it gets to the point of invasion I think it’s fair to consider all of America having stabbed us in the back.
Edit: just to try and be lighter about it - it’s like we all took in your movies and books and documentaries but America themselves in a staggering ratio seem to have missed the point or identified the wrong protagonist.

Please rethink that. MAGA represents a small and shrinking number of Americans. Many millions of us voted against them, and yet they used their nefarious resources to rig the election and take power. We have been stabbed in the back as much as you would be.
If the MAGA Nazis decide to invade Canada, you can double your forces by calling on the Patriotic Americans who want the Nazis out as much as you do.
AMERICA is not your enemy, MAGA is. Please remember that, we are on YOUR side, and want to assist you in defeating MAGA. If it comes down to an invasion of Canada, MAGA will have an Army, and Canada will have an Army, and the American Patriots will have motivated fighters who will enthusiastically assist the Canadian army to defend your sovereignty, and we are spread all over America. Make use of that valuable resource, and your defeat of MAGA will be much easier.
Guerilla warfare has been extremely effective against the US military for decades.
There are also a LOT of people still working within the government who do not support their current leadership. They can’t ALL be replaced by loyalists, and with every replacement they get weaker, and the Resistance gains another experienced insider.
Resistance Guerillas don’t all have to carry guns and be fighters. Those disgruntled federal employees are perfectly placed to cause all sorts of chaos, leaks, sabotage, weaponized incompetence, malicious compliance, etc. They will be as important to the fight as those willing to commit violence.

Yes, I was thinking a lot of us would be valuable in guerilla warfare. Which side would be taken by individuals depends on the individuals.
