imagine that would have drawn the US into WWII earlier, which also might have meant a shorter war. Not sure if this is how it plays out in the novel you mentioned.

Everything from Alberta to the West. Should've invaded and took it while we had the chance.

We invaded Canada during the war of 1812…and lost. So, no new territory.
