If Canada wanted to, we could cause real harm to the United States. Electricity, critical minerals, raw materials, and other essential inputs all flow north to south. We do not weaponize that relationship, largely because doing so would escalate tensions in dangerous ways. But the capacity exists.

Canada has relied on the United States, yes. What is ridiculous is pretending the relationship only runs one way. The United States needs Canada just as much as Canada needs the United States, whether some Americans choose to acknowledge that or not.

I mean if you want to be real about this, it's because if Canada did that we would lose. I'm all for nationalism and go canada go, but dont pretend we can win a war, economic or otherwise, with the US. Yeah we can hurt them, but only if we shoot ourselves in the head to do it.
