Canadian cows were run over by Canadian cars... Watch for American chemical garbage which will show up in your fridge pretty soon... The US has been granted veto power under some specific conditions, by Libs... I'm sure Tories could have done much better...
The economy boom in the US had an unforeseen side-effect: the resilience of Canadian economy toward US protectionism! The most obvious victim of the new deal is now the dairy farmers. In the old deal Canada closed its market for dairy products for exclusive activity of its own dairy farmers. Now it's open [albeit partially] to American dairy farmers. But this will not help American dairy. They are facing over production and the price of their products hit the rock bottom in their own fiery competition and loss of revenue. The opening of Canadian market damages substantially Canadian dairy farmers because the climate situation doesn't allow them to be competitive with American farmers. But on the other hand, this opening will not make a dent on American over production.
For now, the primary goal for the US is stopping the Chinese [who are invading Canada] in their trade war. And in that sense this was a big victory. But in the long run, and in a less prosper economic situation, Canada will pay big time.
BTW the 'elephant' here refers to the famous phrase of P.E. Trudeau [the real one!] regarding the relationship of Canada with the U.S.:
Living next to you is in some ways like sleeping with an elephant. No matter how friendly and even-tempered is the beast, if I can call it that, one is affected by every twitch and grunt.
This is my problem with Justin... He is living under his father's legacy, whatever it is or it isn't, and badly yearns for his own moment of "just watch me"... that alone can drag Canada onto a historic dead-end path... I feel no hesitation to say that I miss Harper big time... the one who closed the IRI spy den in Ottawa... Justin, on the other hand, is drooling for the first opportunity to reopen it... Do your patriotic duty by voting Libs out on October 21, 2019...
