If there's a civil war in a neighboring country, that's a permission slip to invade? Good to know. Sorry Canada or Mexico didn't exercise the option when they had the chance.

Canada wasn't independent at that time. There most certainly were powerful forces in England advocating open intervention (the high point was the notorious Trent affair.) Given the eventual disparity in naval forces, the English recognition of Confederate belligerency ended up helping the Union.....but that was in no sense friendly.
Mexico was invaded by the French, English and Spanish at the period and in no position to intervene. But during the Mexican revolution, the US did intervene in many ways, including Pershing's military incursions.
