No, it is not. Invasion is a military incursion. Annexation is not a military incursion. If one sounds less bad than the other, you’re reading that in. People aren’t minimizing by referring to annexation and invasion as different things.
Annexation can happen peacefully if a country agrees to it. Canada has rejected that, so a non-military annexation is off the table.
The other scenario when an annexation can occur is after it’s occupied by a military. Before that happens there would need to be an invasion.
Since annexation has been rejected by Canada all talk of annexation now means the same as invasion and occupation, since that’s the only scenario an annexation can happen now.
