They Called it the Poutine War

During the interwar period of 1919-1939, there was a war plan created by the United States Department of War called War Plan Red.

It looked at a hypothetical war with the British Empire with Canada as the major front line.
Let's learn more!

War Plan Red was developed by the War Department after the 1927 Geneva Naval Conference, and approved by Secretary of War Patrick J. Hurley in 1930.
This was a hypothetical exercise.

The war plan assumed the British would have the upper hand due to the Royal Navy and that Canada would be used as a springboard to invade the United States.

The assumption was that the United States would win the war by blockading Canadian ports.

In the war plan, a key move was a joint US Army-Navy attack to capture Halifax. The first strike would use poison gas on Halifax, and the undersea cable would be cut to sever communication between Canada and Britain. If the US could not take Halifax, New Brunswick was the backup objective.

The seizure of Canadian power plants near Niagara Falls was the next objective.

At this point, a full scale invasion of Canada would begin on several fronts.
The Americans would go from Vermont to take Montreal and Quebec. This would cut off eastern Canada and prevent any movement of goods to the Maritimes.

Toronto, Windsor and Hamilton would all be attacked from the Great Lakes as the United States took over the lakes. Sault Ste. Marie would be attacked, followed by Sudbury. The control of the Great Lakes was considered necessary for the success of the invasion.

Winnipeg would be attacked from North Dakota to control the rail system of the country.

In the west, Vancouver would be attacked from Bellingham, Washington and Vancouver Island would be invaded from Port Angeles, Washington. A naval blockade would cut off Prince Rupert.

Of course, such a hypothetical plan never actually happened. In 1974, War Plan Red was declassified.

Pendant l’entre-deux-guerres de 1919 à 1939, le Département de la guerre des États-Unis a créé un plan de guerre appelé War Plan Red.

Il s’agissait d’une guerre hypothétique avec l’Empire britannique, avec le Canada comme principale ligne de front.
Apprenons-en plus !

War Plan Red a été élaboré par le ministère de la Guerre après la Conférence navale de Genève de 1927 et approuvé par le secrétaire à la Guerre Patrick J. Hurley en 1930.
Il s’agissait d’un exercice hypothétique.

Le plan de guerre supposait que les Britanniques auraient le dessus grâce à la Royal Navy et que le Canada serait utilisé comme tremplin pour envahir les États-Unis.

L’hypothèse était que les États-Unis gagneraient la guerre en bloquant les ports canadiens.

Dans le plan de guerre, une étape clé était une attaque conjointe de l'armée et de la marine américaines pour capturer Halifax. La première frappe utiliserait des gaz toxiques sur Halifax et le câble sous-marin serait coupé pour couper la communication entre le Canada et la Grande-Bretagne. Si les États-Unis ne pouvaient pas prendre Halifax, le Nouveau-Brunswick était l'objectif de secours.

La saisie des centrales électriques canadiennes près des chutes du Niagara était le prochain objectif.

À ce stade, une invasion à grande échelle du Canada allait commencer sur plusieurs fronts.
Les Américains partiraient du Vermont pour prendre Montréal et Québec. Cela couperait l’est du Canada et empêcherait tout mouvement de marchandises vers les Maritimes.

Toronto, Windsor et Hamilton seraient toutes attaquées depuis les Grands Lacs alors que les États-Unis s'empareraient des lacs. Sault Ste. Marie serait attaquée, suivie de Sudbury. Le contrôle des Grands Lacs était jugé nécessaire au succès de l’invasion.

Winnipeg serait attaquée depuis le Dakota du Nord pour contrôler le système ferroviaire du pays.

À l'ouest, Vancouver serait attaquée depuis Bellingham, dans l'État de Washington, et l'île de Vancouver serait envahie depuis Port Angeles, dans l'État de Washington. Un blocus naval couperait Prince Rupert.

Pendant que ces forces attaquaient sur terre, les forces de la marine américaine s'emparaient des Grands Lacs et bloquaient les ports côtiers du Canada.

Bien entendu, un tel plan hypothétique n’a jamais eu lieu. En 1974, War Plan Red a été déclassifié.
