Trump isn’t destroying Canada through massive corruption and mismanagement. Trudeau is.

The a-hole drove out private interest for a pipeline that now will be built with taxpayer money and will be sold, probably at a loss, to a liberal crony.

An affront?

Kind of like the terrorist you rewarded for unjust incarceration after he was paroled from Gitmo?

"An affront"?

I always figured Trudy was an "arrears" kind of guy.

Seeing as he likes to play Ken doll, and dress himself up in different outfits for different occasions, did he put on a uniform when he announced this?

Allies doesn’t mean you let them flood your country with cheap inferior steel & destroy your steel industry, even if they through a tantrum when you stop allowing the dumping.

The Canucks spend a big 1% of GDP on defense.

Another NATO moocher.

I remember many years ago how a Canadian representative at a NATO conference got in a huff because the speaker overlooked the Canadian Navy.

The speaker replied, "Well, it was easy to miss, wasn't it?"

Okay. For those who want to immigrate and become permanent residents (and maybe citizens), offer Canadian Forces veterans jobs in our new steel industry then. We’ll take the best of Canada and show them our gratitude for their service in our combined forces.

In retaliating against U.S. tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum, Canada crafted a list ...pizza and quiche to strawberry jam, ketchup and mustard,... lacquer...cucumber and gherkin... mowers for lawns, parks or sports-grounds... yogurt... maple syrup... beer kegs, mineral water and soy sauce... whiskey... Chocolate, in blocks, slabs or bars,... candy in general....toilet paper...mayonnaise, salad dressing, automatic dishwasher detergents and certain types of plywood.

Great Britain and Canada are the only two countries that have direct access to the US automated clearing house system used by US banks.

Remove that, and their economy would shutdown almost overnight.
