Beer or Canadians can longer afford maple syrup. We ship it all to Vermont, put labels on it that make it look like it isn't Canadian. Canada's foreign policies are in the hands of the current Federal Government, much like the United States, our provinces generally leave external affairs up to the Federal Government. Within Canada, there is considerable opposition to every Federal Government that gets elected, though usually fractured, so good would depend on how you vote. Our upcoming Liberal party leadership convention will produce a new Liberal leader who will also likely become the next Prime Minister of Canada, our foreign policy could shift dramatically when that happens. I prefer "dilemma" to "convention" in the case of the Liberals. Here is a scenario, Hilary Clinton gets elected there, we get Sheila Copps here, a new face for North America.
