Truly enjoying your hand wringing and overall hysteria as your political paradigm is flushed down the toilet.

Justin from Canada Painted His Country Into a Lose/Lose Trade Corner – More Details of U.S-Mexico Deal…

By choosing politics over fundamental trade economics Justin and Chrystia from Canada have painted themselves into an isolated position on the renegotiated North American Trade deal. Here’s the basic Canadian conundrum.



The U.S. and Mexico have agreed to manufacturing origination terms; wage and labor improvements; elimination of AG subsidies and non tariff barriers; and removal of all protectionist tariffs – so long as the structural terms of commerce are upheld.

In order for Canada to join the U.S. Mexico deal they would need to:

(1) eliminate soft-wood subsidies in the lumber sector;(2) eliminate protectionist tariffs in the AG (Dairy) sector; and(3) accept the 75% rules of origin, eliminating the NAFTA loophole.(4) agree to the enforcement mechanisms for all the above.Each of these four issues, now locked-in and agreed by the U.S. and Mexico are “take-it-or-leave-it” terms for Canada to join. There’s almost no-way, given the politicization of the Canadian plan, for Justin and Chrystia to agree to those terms and keep their fragmented political support base appeased.

Therefore, absent total acquiescence, it is likely Canada will keep their soft-wood lumber subsidies, keep their protectionist Dairy tariffs, and face a 25% duty on U.S. auto imports – effectively destroying their auto manufacturing sector. Car companies (ex. Toyota) will simply leave Canada and return to building in the U.S.

Here’s the content from a conference call filling in more details:

We call this WINNING:


From: Mrjns

After just 18 months, Trump has “flipped” two circuits — the Sixth and Seventh — from liberal to conservative.

Two more — the Eighth and the 11th — are on the verge of tipping.

TRUMP’S APPROVAL RATING WENT UP AFTER COHEN CLAIMS, NEW POLL SHOWS

Newsweek ^
| Aug 28, 2018 | Harriet Sinclair

Support for President Donald Trump does not appear to have dwindled in the aftermath of his former lawyer Michael Cohen pleading guilty to campaign finance violations, with a new poll showing the president has maintained his approval rating. A Harvard CAPS/Harris poll provided to The Hill shows the president with a 46 percent approval rating, one point up from the same survey taken last month that showed Trump with a 45 percent approval rating.
