My 16-yr-old and I watched the original Fargo on Friday night. (He loved it) At one point he says "All these people sound like Americans when they're trying to imitate a Canadian accent!" "Well, they know we're up here somewhere, so they assume we sound like Minnesotans."

I think it would be delightful if "Taco" held on in the English language long after Trump's gone, to refer to leaders and politicians backing down ignominiously, to the point where people have to look up the origin. That would be his greatest legacy. Like Quisling or Gerrymandering.

The "Trade" war is best understood through the US National Security Strategy (2025) AKA the Don-roe doctrine. "If USAs closest neighbour can resist, the doctrine is dead." It's not about trade. For the Doctrine, a Canada with diversified trade is a prototype that cannot be allowed to succeed.

Canada Isn't Turning to China. It's Doing Something Much More Dangerous.
The fight over Canada isn't about trade. It's about whether a sovereign country can diversify its way out of dependence — and what happens to American power if it does.

Everyone is enjoying the memes line and the shade line, but personally I think the sharpest barb here is “Stop trying to be tough.” Knowing the type of people that guys like Hegseth and Trump are, that's the part that will probably get under their skin the most.
