Yes, yes, yes... of course the US would back us if someone were so inclined to attack Canada. The likelihood of that occuring is practically inconceivable.
Of course, that is so besides the point.
Our diplomats do not make a habit of going around rattling sabres to get results (especially when the sabre being rattled belongs to someone else). Diplomacy is not about having to resort to violence or even threatening violence (implicit or explicit).
Result can be and are achieved (even by the US) without resorting to who has the bigger army.
France, Germany and the UK in no way need the US to back them up in thier own diplomacy.
Are you so sheltered in the bosom of America that you honestly believe that these nations go spoiling for fights hoping that their big brother "Uncle Sam" is going to back them...
