Canada started a trade war with the US without considering the fact that it is holding no cards. None. This is a pathetic effort at smoke and mirrors, acting like they have something to bargain with when they do not.

We can, and should, completely shut down the Canadian economy in response to Trudeau’s blustering betrayal following the G-6+1.

Canada started a trade war with the US without considering the fact that it is holding no cards.

This comment pretty much sums it up. Without US goods and services, Canada would become Greece with a Tundra.

The Reagan administration negotiated the bilateral trade agreement with Canada and most Canadians hated it.

After that, both Canada and the US(under Bush 1) began negotiating a bilateral agreement with Mexico. But they all quickly decided that a single trilateral agreement would be better than 3 bilateral agreements.

So the bilateral agreement between the US and Canada was rolled into the NAFTA trilateral.
