America's lost investment and production she is OK with. Canadian greed is just fine. Trump has not waged economic war against Canada, he is defending us from the economic war Canada inflicted on us. Canada has been living off of our teats for decades. They have enjoyed a huge trade imbalance that has transferred trillions of our wealth to them over the years. President Trump is just saying "Enough!"
Do you seriously think "free" Canadian healthcare would have been possible if they were enjoying the military presence we have while they spend next to nothing on defense? Of course not! I, for one, am growing tired of any neighbor to the north that thinks America owes them a continuing free lunch buffet.
The more they whine, the more we know we are over the target. America first, Canada second.
Bbbut mister TV man assured me that Canada is laughing at Bloompf's tariffs!!1
Canada is the most expensive country on the planet to manufacture anything.
