00:00A startling scenario is making headlines.
00:04The Canadian military is studying a hypothetical military model
00:08simulating a potential confrontation with the United States.
00:12The scenario was revealed in a striking report by a Canadian newspaper,
00:17despite officials stressing that an actual U.S. order to invade Canada
00:21remains highly unlikely.
00:24So, why has Ottawa placed such a scenario on the planning table?
00:28The reason lies in the statements and behaviour of U.S. President Donald Trump,
00:33who reignited controversy at the start of his second term
00:36by repeatedly referring to Canada as the 51st U.S. State,
00:40remarks that Canadian circles viewed as an unprecedented political overstep.
00:45Although talk of annexing Canada had subsided in recent months,
00:49as Trump's ambitions appeared to expand to Panama and Greenland,
00:53a photo the U.S. President posted from his office brought the issue back to the forefront.
00:57The image showed a map of Canada covered with the U.S. flag,
01:02alongside Venezuela and Greenland,
01:05a move observers interpreted as a subtle political message
01:09reflecting an expansionist vision that goes beyond mere rhetoric.
01:13While the Canadian government downplays the likelihood of military escalation,
01:18the report stresses that preparing such models does not imply an expectation of imminent war,
01:23but rather falls within the scope of precautionary defence planning.
