Justin Trudeau Talks Trade - Video
One of his more lucid moments...
G_d save us from this ignorant arrogant prat.
Did he dress up as a bird, so he’d be cultural appropriate with the loonie’s?
Canadians must be so proud...
I agree. We need to trade him. Unfortunately, the NHL trade deadline was February 26, 2018. I would have been happy to have traded him for 'a player to be named later', or even a 200th round draft pick. Either would have been an improvement for my 'home and native land'. Too bad we missed the deadline!
In case anyone missed it: </sarc> + unfortunately, too much truth!
Maybe he could still be traded to the KHL, so he can annoy Putin.
Trudeau = The New Mr Dressup
I'm certainly no expert on such matters but I think that we should see Canada (but not Mexico) as a friend and ally with whom we can have a close relationship *and* a comprehensive,mutually beneficial,trading relationship.
I often drive down I-91 from the Canadian border into Connecticut.I'm always amazed by the number of huge lumber trucks,all sporting Quebec plates,I see heading south.This is obviously wood that we need and is of such a quality and price as to cause us to buy it.That certainly benefits both countries...as do the Boeing aircraft that we sell to Canadian airlines.
Mexico can keep their avocados and the cr@ppy cars...but Canada's different.
Agreed. We should be getting lumber, oil, metals and other resources like those from Canada without putting tariffs or duties on those resources. We don’t need much in the way of manufactured products from there except specialties like custom made wood products.
Stop putting tariffs or duties on materials that an American can build his house with or use to provide energy for his house (solar panels: electricity for when the SHTF). Don’t put tariffs or duties on products like bananas. Everything else that we can produce in the U.S.A., sure! Put tariffs on those items instead.
Tired of seeing the U.S. working man cheated both ways.
The basic issue is a simple one; for the U.S. NAFTA has a fatal flaw. Canada and Mexico are used by China and Asian nations as a way to work-around direct trade with the U.S. and use NAFTA as a backdoor into the U.S. market.
It works out great for Canada and Mexico, but terrible for the U.S. It’s a structural issue and no amount of negotiation is going to remove the fatal flaw unless Canada and Mexico agree to terms that are directly against their current financial interests. Ergo POTUS Trump is positioned to withdraw.
Trying to keep the U.S. in NAFTA, but understanding the likelihood of exit, Justin from Canada originally approached China for a big trade deal. Justin didn’t find Happy Panda in his discussions; instead he found The Red Dragon behind the Panda mask.
China was willing to talk trade, but China tiered their approach because Canada is only valuable to China as long as the NAFTA door is open. Without NAFTA China has no use for Canada. Justin left China with dragon burns and immediately realized his trade cards were getting weaker by the day…. so he had to sign-up for the Trans-Pacific-Partnership.
Unfortunately for Justin, though some think he didn’t realize the consequence, signing TPP guaranteed POTUS Trump would exit NAFTA. Why? Because if the U.S. stayed in NAFTA the TPP nations would now have a collective backdoor into the valuable U.S. market through Canada. The NAFTA fundamental flaw just became more flawed.
Did he dress up as a bird, so he’d be cultural appropriate with the loonie’s?
I suppose he dressed up in one of those black and white cow hide jackets like the guy on Fox Business Channel
Yeah Canada is like the number 1 importer of steel to the US but they don’t manufacture it. Maybe that is what Justin was trying to say?
Call back when Harper is in charge again.
Where’s the homosexual one?
Freak.
Yes Canada can trade him to Pakistan for two terrorists.
Why did I ask??
