You Want Fries With That? So apparently Donald Trump demanded Canada’s potatoes. He decided American fast food companies were entitled to first claim on Canadian potato exports. Because freedom. Or something. Canada’s response? Four words. “Canadian potatoes feed Canadians.” No drama. No threats. No 3am meltdown. Just four words and a quiet phone call to Japan, Indonesia, and Mexico saying “hey, you want some fries?” America is now scrambling for French fries. 😂 But here’s where it stops being funny. Canada just taught the United States a masterclass in how a country is supposed to work. And we were too busy laughing to notice the lesson. Feed your people first. Sell what’s left. Norway figured this out with oil. They built a sovereign wealth fund worth over a trillion dollars — for five million people — by saying our resources serve our people before they serve Exxon. Every Norwegian citizen is technically a millionaire on paper because of that decision. America has more natural resources than almost any nation on earth. And somehow 40 million Americans live in poverty. That’s not a resources problem. That’s a priorities problem. Same word that explains foreign aid. Same word that explains why we can bomb countries on the other side of the world but can’t feed kids in Mississippi. Canada didn’t discover anything revolutionary. They just never forgot what a country is actually for. Feed your people first. Sell what’s left. Enjoy your fries. 🍟
