    Despite all the bluff and bluster of the liberal snowflake running Canada it looks like he's going to have to sit down at the table and act like an adult. He is going to have to face the fact that Canada relies on america for 75% of its exports. We obviously hold the winning hand here and his tantrum is not going over well with the Canadian business community. Trump really is the master negotiator.

    "OTTAWA (Reuters) - Business and political leaders are increasing the pressure on Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to agree on a deal to renew NAFTA and drop his insistence that no deal is better than a bad deal."
    Signs are growing that hitherto solid domestic support for Ottawa’s stance is fraying amid fears of the potential economic damage. The United States takes 75 percent of Canada’s goods exports and President Donald Trump is threatening to impose tariffs on autos"

    BFD.

    Are you surprised that Canada has a bunch of special interests trying to influence the government? The fact they are whining about making a deal, means NOTHING in the grand scheme of things. We ALL want to come to an agreement, but we won't cave on the two most important areas of dispute.

    Mexico and the U.S. need Canada to come to the table. A deal that doesn't include them would be stupid. Canada holds some chips here(think raw materials,oil).

    Canada will cave soon and Trump will be lauded a hero.

    China will follow suit shortly thereafter.

    Now I realize that the liberals will be upset with Trump because they don't want the US to have fair trade, they want us to be taken advantage of but most of America will cheer Trump.

    They can trade directly no need for NAFTA and Canada can aso do trading with other member states as well.

    American markets are a national asset
    and should be treated that way.
    Not just freely, given away.

    Bravo Trump :applause:
    Trump gets what Clinton, Bush Jr. Obama did not.

    And yes, why do nations need trade "agreements".
    My favorite flannel shirts are made in Bangladesh.
    What of them and supporting their sweat shops.
    They're not China. ;)
    Available at Walmart too

    What ever Trump's deal with Mexico is all but about null and void.

    The new Mexican President takes office in Dec.. Im positive he in not going to feel complied to honor the previous president's last minute deal.

    If Trudeau can hold out until the mid-terms, Canada will come out in good shape.

    Trump's era of 'breaking' deals is about over.

    Be Nice, or not.

    Au Contraire
    The entertainment industry is a great place to propagandize.
    Haven't you noticed?
    Newscasters too.

    Remember the original SNL?
    How :flagcanada: do you want it to believe?
    All those skits about Bad :flagus:
    Influencing. Covertly if not overt.
    No denying the influence it had. Si?

    Relax, not everyone is informed about our master plan for the reverse take over of America. You'll look like a bit like a loon if you insist on trying to expose us, since we have completely covered our tracks. Who do you think REALLY got trump elected?

    Yeah its a great place to propagandize, our actors do it all the time.

    Newscasters too"....maybe, ive met a few over the years, CBC, CTV, CNN, local ones, canadian& US. BTW I've met Kiefer Sutherland and Leslie Nielsen in Regina years back, their old hometowns, both guys were a riot and down to earth, i highly doubt they were some "operatives".

    Youre just paranoid:)).
