LOL... Trump looking out for America? America will suffer almost as much as we will with his self serving decisions. I do agree with having someone in Canada that will look after Canadian interests but not at the expense of our people and our economy. Trump is only interested in putting as many feathers in his cap as he can. Sure. Cut off his NG pipeline... Ontario, Quebec and the Maritime provinces can freeze to death. Or did you forget that our NG goes to the US and then goes to our East. Yeah. The western provinces will be warm though. Where are we going to sell NG and oil? We are already shipping as much into BC as the pipelines will handle. Lets build more pipelines to the coast then. Finally Ontario and Quebec see the potential writing on the wall and have changed their green environmental pipeline roadblock arguments in the interest of heating their houses so we can build another pipeline down there too. Gee. Should have thought of that years ago... Oh. Wait. We did. And what about the lumber, steel and aluminum we produce? Do we have a rail line to Europe? BC can barely handle the offshore shipping load now. And for a month each year we can eat all the fruit and vegetables we can grow in our own short growing season as we don't need them from the US and Mexico anyway even if our grocery shelves will be empty most of the year. Alaska... Hell. That one's easy. We can just annex it into Canada. Why not. It's not even physically connected to the US. Although it's the most demanding state the US has. Just what we need. Another province dependent on three provinces' transfer payments to keep them afloat. Except where will Canada get the extra few billion for that since we won't be selling 1/4 of the products that we ship into the US. To completely stop selling to the US would force Canada into higher taxes, abandon the free healthcare services we now enjoy, massive cuts to education, hospitals, and infrastructure. Sadly, Canada has avoided all the things that would even come close to us being self sufficient without the US. Sorry to say, our choices are limited, and when Trump is done using his military to take Greenland, Gaza and Panama, and his troops then move north to take whatever he wants from us, we will have even fewer choices... This is all just my thoughts and I'm sure many will not agree with me. I hope the future proves me wrong.
