Canadians don’t think, we have emotional knee-jerk reactions.

They say Trump should not Tweet, every time Justin and Freeland Tweet it costs Canada billions.

If the USA was not south of Canada we would not exist for long as a sovereign nation.

The election of Trudeau was Canada not only celebrating stupidity but embracing it.

so far as I can see Canada has one card in a game of Go, and is altogether in the wrong game, amongst the wrong crowd, at the wrong time, in the wrong place, and perhaps worst of all, does not realise so.


The worst thing Canada could do is to align it'self with China or Russia, rather than the US. The US could but has never done to its neighbors, anything like China did in annexing Tibet. Simply put, a territory grab. If not for the world opposition the same would already have happened to Taiwan. Eventually it probably will. Similar to the Russian occupation of Crimea. Neither Russia or China should be offered Canada's full trust.

The Canadian people like China. But it does not mean they trust China. Where as the US neighbor has for a century plus has proven it can be , Canadians do not feel the US poses any threat of militarily invasion. Much the opposite the US is viewed as providing the necessary protection from foreign aggression.

Al Gore once said how people view a subject is closely tied to the remuneration they receive. In this case the US supports 78% Canada's economy. Where has China has actually cost the Canadian economy more than it has contributed. So what's to lose ?

Hard to separate political ties and Jeopardize the countries economy, over some foreign female who holds a corporate CFO position because her father owns it.

Simply put she is but one replaceable person in a world population of nearly 8 Billion.
