Warplan Red 2013.1: Invade Canada. Raid Port Dover. Pray for retaliation equal to the one in 1814.

Warplan Red 2013.2: Invade Canada. Conquer Canada. As part of the terms of surrender force them to move US/Canadian border in the Windsor, Ontario area ten miles northward and westward.

More seriously, war planners in the DoD constantly make and revise war plans. Some seem silly, some are deadly serious. The serious ones are done in much more detail by more people and are revised constantly. The less serious ones are done as lessons and practice by junior officers. They don't have nearly as much detail but they do provide a starting point if trouble starts.

The most serious ones evolve into fleet/troop exercises like Warplan Orange against the Japanese in the 1930s.

Umm, a poverty stricken former coaling station and fishing village. Occupation by US troops would be greeted as a fantastic commercial opportunity.

Thanks, but no thanks. Only one murder in Windsor in the last 3 years. How many in Detroit? We are a little busy building the new bridge and the highway approaches to same.
