The US government doesn’t give a shit about anything except excuses for their catastrophic tariff plan. They want to highlight issues that will never be negotiable so they can justify them to Faux News and their Trumper cult. It is a classic divide an conquer technique on Canada. Further, I am sure Russia is running troll farms with misinformation on us now.

Dairy industry, VS oil and gas, VS Québécois.

Who is next?

Concede nothing to the US.

Totally agree. “Make an outrageous demand” is one of the few tools in trumps repitoire.

Even if we did somehow ascede to it, he’d just come up with something new. The point is to have something to hang over us, not to actually get the thing.
