Canada cross docking 75 billion of chinese goods and exporting them to the US was not part of the deal nor was it celebrated by Trump.

Arguing Trump made a bad deal isn't the flex you think it is.

If Trump intended that restriction and didn't negotiate it into the deal, then he fricked up.

What an absurd statement. It was a trade agreement with Canada and the US, there was no provision in the agreement to cross dock products from china.

Not negotiating a restriction into the contract

Then Canada isn't doing anything wrong.

Why are you acting like they are?

Then you agree if we put 50% tariffs on chinese steel and aluminum cross docking in Canada, Canada should have no issue with it.

Makes sense. Why is Canada so upset about it?

And there is no need for a "restriction" when Im negotiating a deal with Canada, not China and Canada. Your argument is absurd.

Canadians are beginning to hate Carney. The yuge job loss and recession is throwing the gift of understanding on them.

TBH, that is a bad faith move on Canada's part. Especially the steel. Chinese steel, if put into service because it was sold as Canadian steel, could fail catastrophically. Chinese steel does not have the tensile ratings and are disallowed in most US industries.

That restriction should have been negotiated by Trump.

He's supposed to be this great negotiator but left a gaping loophole open for Canada to exploit and then gets mad at the deal he negotiated and celebrated.

I have never negotiated a trade deal, but have never heard of someone, who was supposed to be an ally, pulling an underhanded move like that before. Especially on crucial items.

Carney and those squats in his administration don't like the US. We just have to get used to a hostile Canada. We will.

Didn't watch...... what a fricking joke.
Canada is being forced to join with literal world class DEI globalist losers (the EU).
Your worldview is either dishonest or retarded.

Canada is being stupid. Incredibly stupid.

If Canada has better options, trading partners, etc, they should STFU and simply make those deals. That is not the equation. Canada, like the EU, had grown accustomed to asymmetrical trade regulations ... because ... like ... you know ... like ... the United States could "afford" it.

That ship has sailed.
