@towhey 24 days ago the USA exercised one of 2 dissolution clauses in USMCA. Their exit is officially 10 yrs from now.
NO foreign company of any size will invest in Canada right now, due to no US market access guarantee.
They will build in the USA instead & access a market 10x our size
@DavidRo64445462@Crazy_Canuck1 41% of Canadian manufacturers have moved manufacturing to the USA in the last 4 years.
40% of Canadian 1%ers -the guys that pay all the taxes- left for the USA over the last 10 years, taking $1 trillion with them.
US investors have likewise been liquidating.
Time to smarten up
@SteveSh66200549@Crazy_Canuck1 CUSMA has 2 exit clauses:
1st one triggers 10 annual reviews. CUSMA is dead in 10 yrs if the USA doesn't change their mind.
2nd one is a 90-day termination clause.
The USA already exercised the first one 23 days ago.
BILLIONS in foreign investment was cancelled after this.
@MuhlbeierRobert So Canada is going to go from DEAD LAST at just 2% real GDP growth over the last 10 years -and now CURRENTLY in a recession- to the highest growth in the G7 ?
Are you on meth ?
@EthanJMarcoux 40% of Canada's 1%ers have already left Canada for the USA over the last 10 years (Bank of Canada study)
University graduates at all levels are leaving Canada for the USA at a record pace.
Your post comes across as a meth-induced delusion of the highest order.
@jmbprime The USA has ALREADY invoked the dissolution clause.
Trump is on record stating that inserting the dissolution clauses was all he wanted to achieve when NAFTA became CUSMA during his first term.
Canada is in for a VERY rough ride.
And you're an idiot.
@RodKahx Actually it's been a complete disaster.
3 weeks ago the USA exercised their exit clause from USMCA (formerly nafta) while simultaneously negotiating THEIR OWN deal just with Mexico.
Canada is fucked if they don't change course pronto and get a deal done.
@fordnation Well, this should be good.
Last time you opened your fat fucking mouth on US TV it got Canada a recession and the USA exercising a clause to LEAVE THE FREE TRADE AGREEMENT.
How badly you gonna fuck it up this time?
@JoshYohe_PGH I will never be convinced that hextall's entire tenure in Pittsburgh was anything other than retribution for #44 Robbie Brown making him lose his shit on the ice.
@Nofgivenatall Now why don't you tell Canadians WHY?
There is no other choice because:
1) the USA has already exercised a TERMINATION CLAUSE to END our free trade agreement
2) USA and Mexico have been negotiating their own bi-lateral trade agreement -leaving out Canada- for months now.
