I agree - given that trump was the one who made the last round of NAFTA (aka the USMCA cuz god forbid the US isn't the first in the title), which he has now torn up, there is no reason to expect him to honour any agreement we make now.

I'd prefer to not jump right into a pissing match with an enormous economy like the US, but I think we can stand firm on what we let them push us to do. I'd like to see any tariffs we do apply directly solely to small businesses which can shoe a demonstrable loss in revenue due to the tariffs, but given Carney/lib history, I'm guessing it'll be gobbled up by larger corps instead.

Time will tell how his capitulation on the DST goes, but so far I'm not impressed.
