Was part of active US slang, "can do/no can do". Last I heard was in 'Buckaroo Banzai' in '82. ("That's a big no can do.")

We don't like to say 'no' directly but these things mean them.https://twitter.com/SoVeryBritish/status/650681395212353536 …

An American would say, "You can" or "You could." Adding "do" - "You can do" - is British dialect.
