Do you imagine however that England would have enforced Canadian neutrality had the USA supported the Central Powers?

Not sure what you mean by this. In 1914 Canada was as British as the land under Buckingham Palace, and Canada was at war with Germany as soon as the British government in London declared war. The Canadian Parliament and government were not consulted, any more than, say, the Massachusetts government was consulted about declaring war on the Japanese on December 8, 1941. And if the U.S. and the U.K. had gone to war against each other during WWI Canada would have been the front line.

Much more clearly, you make my intended point. Thanks.
