@jmlynek@Gina_T1 That’s quite a list. Unfortunately a resume and blind faith aren’t a trade strategy. Canada sends over 70% of its exports to the US. “Carney is an economist” and “I trust him” don’t change that reality. What exactly has his strategy delivered so far?
@ELMigneron@NoNameMan47@Teapot22222@VegasVirago “Easily find buyers elsewhere”? Over 70% of our exports go to the US. You don’t just redirect hundreds of billions in trade and replace decades of integrated supply chains. Diversification makes sense but pretending the US is easily replaced is ridiculous.
@JimmyCasab52563@MWR4e “Fabricated out of thin air”? Jews had kingdoms in that land centuries before Islam even existed. Israel survived armies trying to wipe it out. I think it’ll survive some Jew hater ranting on X.
@BaalBuster121@m_lechtman@rich_toronto Al Sharaa’s jihadist past is real. The rest is conspiracy garbage. Neither Israel nor the US founded Al Qaeda or ISIS and you’ve offered zero evidence that the terrorists are CIA and Mossad. Calling something an “undeniable fact” doesn’t make it one.
@CheyenneGraber8@RebelNewsOnline@RebelNews_USA Of course we can trade anywhere. Who exactly is replacing the US as the buyer of over 70% of our exports? You don’t replace a $30 trillion economy next door with a slogan. Who’s replacing them? Name the country.
@mark_prati@RebelNewsOnline@RebelNews_USA Canada has valuable resources. Of course that gives us leverage. But the US economy is 13 times our size and buys over 70% of our exports. You seriously think we can hurt them more than they can hurt us? Come on.
@BillBro00366629@Teletracer42091 You don’t simply “move on” from your largest trading partner and the world’s largest economy. Diversification is smart. Damaging the relationship you depend on while pretending other countries can simply replace it is not. And the Hitler comparison isn’t an economic argument.
@shrewddudescast@BertaProudDad What exact provisions were “economic subjugation”? Be specific. Calling it that doesn’t make it true. Trump’s personality is irrelevant. The issue is whether Canada rejected a deal that was better than the economic consequences we’re facing now.
@shrewddudescast@BertaProudDad You don’t strengthen Canada by unnecessarily damaging that relationship and then calling it patriotism. A smart government protects Canadian interests, negotiates from the leverage it actually has and diversifies over time while preserving its most important trading relationship.
