What a betrayal, I hope Liberal MPs push for a non-confidence vote.

Is that what you think he was elected to do? I don't recall anyone running on ending CUSMA. It was all about how to manage it and get a good deal. It has always been about how to get the best deal to maintain access by avoiding tarrifs and saving highly-integrated cross-border industry. Every candidate was running on their skills to save CUSMA from the threat of Trump, not getting out CUSMA and getting out of business with the US.

    Then we need to organize to prevent that because these agreements help the US not us.

    Yeah, the direction of the US seemed pretty obvious last year and it has just been accelerating since. I don't like their direction, or that we are so deeply intertwined with them, but the forces supporting integration in energy, tech, minerals, defense etc are all very powerful. It's not good.
