Why Canadian officers kept checking invasion routes in the United States

Canadian officers continued surveying possible invasion routes in the United States during the relatively friendly interwar period.

Notes

Canadian officers surveyed possible invasion routes in the United States during the 1920s. These journeys continued despite relatively friendly Anglo-American relations. The practice is linked to military planning habits inherited from the War of 1812. Staff officers continued examining the old contingency after the political relationship had changed.
