I'll give you the forest guerilla function. They can be close to the resource targets that the Americans will immediately move to appropriate. I will also give that they will get popular support, so they won't starve.
I do think that you underestimate the impact on rural and small town populations that the American propaganda has had. There're full maga & 2A groups in Lindsay and Nelson who are flying their F Tr flags at this.

Compare that to the Finnish, or to the Baltics. Ask a Finn what they will do when the Russians come, and you will get a detailed response, with both vigor and realism. Balts will either stand or falter, but with a true understanding of the reality of their situation. Those people have been defending their sovereignty for decades - like the Ukrainians.
I'd love to see the Canucks resist, like I'd l9ve to see the Yanks hold ... but they haven't even seen the examples of Belarus and Hungary- they don't even u.dersrand what they are fighting.
In a fight, the Americans will roll in and take Toronto, and Montreal, they'll bomb a few bases, they'll blockade Victoria and Vancouver and the block the passes, then they'll blockade the Eastern shipping lanes. The prairies will cheer, poorly treated migrants will shrug, sofa warriors will fizzle ... them what is left? US supply routes will be stable and simple, and they'll attack without risk. What can guerilla tactics do in that scenario?
Every country that transitioned had some difficulty l, and it is a good idea for a metric country to use metric in construction ... but it would make for good political ammunition.
Poland is pretty Eastern European, and the Baltics and Romania could be considered represented by NATO.
Does the article say that only these invited, or only these people are attending?
