Canada is falling and thinks it's at war with the US

Per the theglobeandmail
They are blaming us for their shitty economy

Stagnate investment for 15+ years

GDP growth shrinking to negative over last 10 years.

Very low investment in innovation

Canada has spent 20 years barely investing in Manufacturing, relying on tariffs to protect a less than innovative industry

And they aren't starting now

It's an economy more and more driven by government spenidng and consumption

This cost is causing Canadian companies to further invest outside of Canada faster than other countries are investing in Canada.

With Alberta getting the shorter end of a short stick


Canada is losing jobs in Manufacturing because of the targeted Tariffs, but so is the US (which has 8x the population)

World Trade is not making up the gap in Trade loss because Canadian goods are not competitive

Oil and Gas (Heavily from Alberta is the only thing propping up the house of cards (And Taxes)

In fact without these resource exports, there isn't much left to fund their welfare state (which drives their consumer economy)

And they are jamming more and more into the USMCA exclusion.

Half the Canadian pension plan is invested in the US.

Summary, Canada for a long time has been funding a government led by taxing oil from Alberta, those taxes are then redistributed to consumers.
That government has also committed to artificially propping up their manufacturing (of car parts for one) and food, to take advantage of the large US market.

Now that that market for primary and secondary goods is no longer allowing Canada to cheat on trade, the sins of non investment and innovation, Canadians are being driven by their government to hate the US, to blame another country for the decades of criminal incompetence of their governments, wasting their oil wealth on a continual growth of a nanny state and increase in citizen dependence on the government as a supplier of jobs and services.

The Canadian hatred for the US is entirely a con by their Liberal government.
