Canada has had tariffs on US goods for years. That is why the President has stood up to your little boy leader. |

Link You'll note that not once does Trump mention the tariffs the US already puts on incoming goods to the US. The Nincompoop-in-Chief's whining when the rest of the world doesn't bow down to him is becoming very tiresome.. Edited by Brewster, Jun 9 2018, 12:18 AM.

CBS has just reported that the spoiled child is going to stomp out of the G7 meeting in Quebec City early, and miss the Climate Change discussion, leaving the US out of any chance to profit from all the new technology coming online in the last while. It will likely also prolong the use of oil and fossil fuels in some countries for a few more years. I'm sure there will be "Thank You" letters in Trump's mailbox from China and Russia. Whatever happened to "America First"? Edited by Brewster, Jun 9 2018, 01:15 AM.

I will do my best to put Canadian goods right up there with the Chinese goods. I won't buy any unless there is no alternative. |

Chinese goods are better. I had a Canadian built MOPAR that was total junk. |

Why would you buy MOPAR no matter where it was built? |

And your spoiled child" PM is doing everything he can to profit from those fossil fuels, with no real, continual complaint from the Canadian left... not on this forum.. or much of anywhere I suspect. •In 2016, Canada’s energy sector directly employed more than 270,000 people and indirectly supported over 600,000 jobs •Canada’s energy sector accounts for almost 7% of nominal Gross Domestic Product (GDP) •Government revenues from energy were $12.9 billion in 2015 •Canada is the sixth largest energy producer, the fifth largest net exporter, and the eighth largest consumer, IN THE WORLD. And Brew's province leads the pack. Those are pretty high rating, considering THE WORLD and considering Canada's population (BTU per capita production). Naw, Canada's child PM is apparently smarter than most Canadians when he looks at holding the economy together.... he wants the pipeline; he wants the production and he wants the exporting and he certainly isn't about to tell Canadians that they can't use fossil fuels. And before Brew jumps on HYDRO, hydro energy and "other renewables" is only 8.1% of energy production in Canada. |
