We use TOW missiles. Tube launched Optically tracked Wire guided. They come in a sealed tube and string two wires behind them that allows the guy behind it to steer it to the target. The bad thing for the guy behind it is he is exposed while the missile is in flight.

I'm not sure if Canada uses fire and forget missiles.
They all use a shaped charge that burns a hole through armor causing the rounds or fuel or both to cook off and make being inside a very bad place to be as you can see in the vid.
