Canada can still beat the US at some things

"We'd like you to kick their asses again because you don't boo the United States of America ... we look forward to the United States beating our soon-to-be 51st state, Canada".

So blustered US Vice President JD Vance (never trust a man who won't use his first name...) just before the Four Nations Face-Off hockey final. Trump, too, added some forgettable supposedly-humorous comments on the game.

So, how did that go, guys? Well, it went 3-2 to Canada. Prime Minister Trudeau taunted Trump on X after the game, saying, "You can't take our country - and you can't take our game". And, it turns out, yes, you can boo the United States of America, and still come out on top. The USA may be a big, rich bully, but Canada can still win at some things.
