Oh man I've been waiting for us to have an excuse to tariff them. For one thing, we need to get Canadians to stop buying anything from the US, there are too many Canadians that don't seem to learn... At least with tariffs in place, the die-hard MAGA Canadians that insist on buying America will fund our economic development.
Also we get to put the squeeze on the US. I say we start with potash, or maybe hydro. Hit the essentials first.
After all, we should just assume he's going to tariff us no matter what we do. He'll use China as an excuse, he'll use the F35s as leverage, no matter what we do he'll renege on it, the same way he did on his own CUSMA. Just do what we need to do and lie to him, pretend we're doing everything we can, buy time and keep diversifying. Buy the Gripens, negotiate the deal in secret if needed so you don't need to announce it until the last minute. At this point don't commit to anything with the US. Delay, delay, delay.
