"If" the method of an attack against America is missile.
"If" the shield works beyond any organizations desire to test it.
And the big one, "If" for some reason an attacker lumps Canada and the US in the same catagory.

Sounds like a lot of "If"s to get involved in a project that may very well cause an increase in the rest of the world to view Canada and the USA as the same.
To me, that sounds like the far more dangerous option.
