Blame Canada

A previously existing phrase that became exceedingly popular in the Northeast following the massive "Northeast Blackout of 2003" that originated in Ontario. The blackout affected parts of Ohio, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island for a total of 45 million Americans. While US officials blamed Canada for the outage, Canadian officials blamed several US states including New York and Pennsylvania.
