...in the North-east US, if at all possible. I`m doing a scenario about a ficticious (obviously) Canadian invasion of the US, and it`s based on the same map as the War of Independence, so therefore, I`d like to know what military bases are around that area, what airforce squadrons are in the area etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try hacking into the Pentagon's main computer. I believe they keep a lot of that kind of information in there.

On second thoughts, I`ll go with Kull`s suggestion.

Or go to the Art of War forum, bring up old threads and there sall be one by Polaris called "Useful links" which has links to detailed (bivisions and so) information on most of the world's military. They used it to set up their diplomatic game.

Credit for that should mainly be given to YYYH for compiling the links...Polaris just copied that.

If you're looking for a standard US vs. Canada situation, I think it would be hard to set up without having Genghis Khan become Prime Minister of Canada.
However, you could create a somewhat realistic situation based around the possible breakup of Canada. If Quebec ever succeeds in leaving Canada, then the rest of Canada is in big trouble. Since the federal government in Ontario is not especially popular in the other provinces, Canada could collapse like a house of cards in a hurricane.
Most likely, Quebec would be an independent country unto itself. The Prairie Provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba have the natural resources to sustain themselves as a separate country. The Maritime Provinces (New Brunswick, Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island) have fairly weak economies and would have to rely on Ottawa or the Prairie to support them. The Territories would be in limbo.
But the big deal comes with British Columbia. It is quite likely that if Canada were to dissolve, the British Columbian legislature would vote to join the U.S. There's your war, right there.

Oh, and remember, the Great Lakes have been neutralized by treaty since the end of the War of 1812.
