Danielle Smith's priority is making sure Canadians keep their jobs. Tariffs on Canadian imports results in layoffs of Canadians so they are out of work, out of a job.
I'm sure it is, but her approach is like when younger kids are playing sports (hockey, soccer, lacrosse) and there's that one kid that refuses to play their position and just ends up chasing the ball. Sure, they're all aiming for the same net, but that one kid can undermine the rest of the team's strategy. At best the rogue kid leaves an opposing player wide open, at worst they steal the ball from their own teammate and shank it into the stands.
You are wrong, it's the exact oposite. Smith's priority is trying to work with the other side to build an agreement, and everybidy else is being a spaz and complaining "We want it our way or we're not playing! Trump won't do what we told him, he started ths fight!"
If Truseau won't secure the border to block people crossing illegally in Anerica, Trump has a right to wreck Canada, damage Canadian businesses, and have thousands of people in Canada lose their jobs and be unemployed.
Trump never said Canadian shouldn't accet immigrants, he's only demanding that Canada block the border to America outside of a USCBP

Securing the border helps both countries, I don't see any Canadian leader pushing against that. We've pointed out the issue for years

I'm hoping that the US makes similar investments on their side of the border.
