First usage?
editThis entry seems to imply that the term was originated in the Pierre Trudeau incident, but it's not very clear if this was in fact the first known usage or if it is simply when it became well-known.

The linked article, October Crisis, doesn't seem to explain John Lundrigan's phrase, the Lapalme workers (quoted in § Media coverage). Assuming tht Lundrigan did indeed intend that allusion, and given the nature of that crisis, the allusion will have comprised a very large part of the force of what he said . . possibly of the meaning too. Can anyone cast any light on this? – SquisherDa (talk) 19:24, 23 November 2019 (UTC)
