“Canadians may have gone in for wokeness in recent years, it is true, but there is the matter of their bloody-minded DNA. It was not that long ago that they harvested baby seals—the ones with the big, sad, adorable brown eyes—with short iron clubs. They love hockey, a sport that would have pleased the emperors and blood-crazed plebeians and patricians of ancient Rome if they could only have figured out how to build an ice rink in the Colosseum.” 😅

The biggest difference between Canada and US is righteous anger levels. We can win the trade war through commitment to economic destruction of US, and nuclear deterrent, whether that is through North Korea or France. Or suitcase nukes from anywhere.
Canada makes 1.4m vehicles/year but buys 1.8m. US never selling another car in Canada does not help its auto sector. Car companies not siding with an angrier Canada during “temporary negotiation extortion” is more destructive to car companies who’d gain a cost advantage in Canada with retaliation export tariffs on materials and energy. So, winning the trade war is just a matter of will.
