It's the best outcome. And the USA has shown their true colours and how they see themselves.

this is a big reason why I'm happy Trump won the second time. i am so fucking tired of hegemony, make me less relevant than Spain please
Trump accidentally did exactly what communists had been hoping for for 25 years. we were never gonna give up our power, military acumen, and technological superiority willingly. this guy, though. he really can do anything
It's almost like america isn't the only country/economy on earth or something.
US diplomats after Bonespurs has his final Big Mac Attack and MAGA disintegrates in orgy of backstabbing: "I don't suppose we can just pretend this all didn't happen?"
after Canada joins well i guess EU gotta change their name.
Up there with Russia’s “we’ll stop NATO expansion by invading Ukraine”
Uh that's exactly it.
Alberta is eastern Ukraine.
It's the exact same playbook.
You don't think the US is stoking separatism in Alberta? Or you don't understand how the Russia-Ukraine thing actually started? Maybe your special helper can explain it to you. And maybe help with the emotional regulation too.
If Canada was smart they’d make a trade agreement with Mexico and China to get Chinese vehicles made in Mexico and Canada.
This is probably the greatest domino left they can play in order to truly fuck America. The shit American automotive industry has done #@&! All for innovation outside of Tesla and is a protectionism racket.
Let China flood the zone in Mexico and Canada and America will finally get Chinese vehicles and everyone wins but American automakers and their stakeholders.
As somebody who owns some Ford stock, yes please. Kill the value. Make them innovate or die. Either I get a nicer investment fund or a shitty corporation fizzles out. I'll probably hold for at least 20 more years either way. I'm no day trader.
everyone wins but American automakers and their stakeholders
Canada is one of their stakeholders, as these cars are built with pieces and raw materials made in Canada. That sector is the second largest export from Canada by value.
I’m assuming part of the plan to have the cars made in Canada and Mexico would be to use our raw materials
I'm going to let you in on a little secret. The EVs they AREN'T building but we WANT TO BUY will use even more of those resources.
Relaxing the borders to allow students to study where they like is HUGE! That'll strengthen the Canadian/EU ties over a few generations tremendously! 😁
