Discussion of politics, including the war in Ukraine, are probably too much of a 'hot button' to discuss here and hope to retain the collegiality of this board.

Maybe, but the increasing sympathy for, or neutrality with respect to, Russian aggression in certain U.S. circles is part of why I'm slowly doing what Jim has done quickly.

I'm Canadian, and the newfound U.S. stance on Russia-Ukraine/EU relations puts an important gloss on U.S. threats to treat the U.S.-Canada border as less than sacrosanct. Violating Canadian / non-U.S. citizens' rights in property or contract is hardly a massive reach when Trump can't go a day without describing Canada as the 51st state. And these aren't isolated incidents either.
