I’m not sure about this. They’ve got a more than capable military.
But I’m willing to find out where their limit is. Militarily, I suspect it starts at a protracted war of attrition with a determined enemy that looks exactly like them and who pops in and out of unassailable and impassable northern boreal forests and muskeg swamps. Or hides in plain sight in the middle of Toronto. Or hops over the immense border to wreak havoc. No one would be safe, ever.
Economically, I think cutting off hydro, oil and potash would have an enormous effect on their comfort level. For lasting damage, nationalize all strategic resources and seize assets and companies. Raze them if threatened, starting with US assets. Nationalize all IP and patents. Sell all US government debt and send the interest rates sky high.
The weakness the US has is that they are doing this for more power and a comfortable life. They AIM to survive it. Frankly at a certain point I don’t care about that. Our fight is existential, and we have given up on a vision of life after. What matters at that point is the here and now, and that’s it.
The biggest weakness of the US is that Americans hate one another. At the current time another civil war in the US isn’t in my best interests. But future events might change that.
Also, I don’t want to fight Americans in the streets of Toronto. I would be willing to fight Americans in the streets of American cities tho. The American concept of war is something that happens “over there”. How would Americans handle it if war wasn’t just some drone video of a boat in the Caribbean getting hit by a missile?
Hopefully it won’t come to that. But people obsess over troop counts a little too much and don’t think at all about the weakness inherent in American culture. That weakness obviously led to Trump and the general decline of the US. That decline can be either mitigated or exploited. We’ll just have to see how it goes.
They can’t handle a rifle due to medical reasons and their moms told them to be back by dinner.

I don’t think the average republican is capable in a fight, but I do think they fantasize about ethnic cleansing.
And you really think they are the ones fighting?
They remove social services and the only out for poor people is the army.
