When Courts Draw the Line on Power

#TrumpCanadaTariffsOverturned is not just a trade headline, it is a reminder that policy does not exist in a vacuum. The tariffs were framed as strength, but strength without legal grounding eventually collapses under its own weight. By overturning them, the courts signaled that economic pressure cannot replace process, and nationalism cannot shortcut law. Canada did not win because it shouted louder, it won because rules still mattered. Markets react fast, politics reacts loud, but institutions move with memory. This moment is less about Trump and more about boundaries. Power ends where accountability begins.
