United States Annexation of Canada

In 2067, the United States began to exert pressure on Canada to let US forces pass through Canada to reach battlefields in occupied Alaska. Canada briefly became diplomatically combative, but eventually American military units were allowed to pass through Canada. Over the next decade, the United States drew more and more on Canadian resources. Vast stretches of timberland were destroyed. Protests by the Canadian populace went unheard. Many Americans began to call Canada "Little America". In February of 2076,Canada,now almost completely under US occupation, was finally annexed. Canadians quickly began to resort to armed ressitance. US troops shoot Canadian partisans and rioters on sight. Pictures of such atroscities made their way to the United States, causing further unrest. This situation continued until October 23,2077, when the Great War rendered all of this trivial and irrelevant.
