No, there’s no situation in which we get invaded because of oceans and proximity to the US.

Our arctic waters are desired by and are in proximity to several threat actors who are actively chipping away at our sovereignty. Just for one example.

Even if we werent part of NATO the US does not want any hostile country occupying land on its continent.

NATO is nothing more than that formalized.

“our sovereignty” No, there are zero threat actors who have the capability to occupy the Canadian north where they want oil and gas from. They could not protect any sort of resource extraction sites from even our limited self-military capabilities.

NATO is a lot more than just the US-Canada alliance. NORAD for example is not part of NATO operations.
