If we cut off our supply to the states TODAY, we would face economic setbacks, but we would do alright. Would we see US troops TOMORROW?
No, but you'd arbitrarily piss off your biggest trading partner in the world, cutting off mutually beneficial exchange for the sake of spiting the U.S.

Stupid move.

They'd raise tariffs on Canadian imports in return (tit-for-tat being the most successful strategy in game theory). Mercantilist trade wars benefit nobody.
