Comment on Canadian Wildfires signal major L over the United States

So in not disagreeing with you. It is worth noting though that the border between the US and Canada is not just imaginary. It does have an actual physical demarcation. And it actually can slow the spread of fire across the border, if only slightly. The trees at the border have been cleared for a 20 foot wide gap, often referred to as “The slash”.

Wow, that is true. As someone who literally lived on the border for my formative years, this is not clear-cut across the country.
In my case, it is a concrete marker in the middle of the forest.
