USMCA

Seriously?? Danielle Smith needs a reality check.

Truck loads of Alberta Cargill beef and AMLO French Fries leave Alberta daily to go to Mexico.

If I was Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo (President of Mexico) listening to this shit, I would ban all Alberta products today. I hope she does.

Billions in Alberta trade would be gone, and jobs too.

What we see is that USA wants to change the trade agreement. Okay, then change the agreement, if the USA wants the products, they will have to pay for them at a new price, higher price we want, plus 25% tariffs, and pay a month in advance. Given that old Donnie is known for not paying for services and products, and he is in charge of USA, then you treat him like a child.

Um. . . "the USA" isn't buying the goods. US companies (mostly US subsidiaries of global MNCs) are. Trump isn't actually buying them, neither with his own money nor with Federal tax money.

Youre mistaken on that. Strategic (Critical) Resources are indeed bought by US Govt from Canadian Govt middled through companies.

So which products do you sell in the U.S. ? Does your government set the prices ?

Or ya know, we could simply quit letting China use Canada as a 3rd country exporter to circumvent US tariffs and bans on various Chinese products. That's why Trump has threatened a 25% tariff on all Canadian goods. Because Chinese-made shit is packaged here as "product of Canada" and shipped to the US. It's a legitimate beef for the US to have.

Don't know why so many Canadians think that shit is okay. And when you consider some of the other shit Trudeau has done or allowed, we haven't really been a very good neighbour, ally or friend. I mean fuck man, when there's talk about punting Canada from the Five Eyes and none of that talk was initiated by Trump you KNOW we have a serious fucking problem with our govt.

Lutnick says Canada's trade deal with China could threaten CUSMA talks
Speaking to Bloomberg, the U.S. commerce secretary said Canada's 'playing with a set of rules that they haven’t really thought through'

U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick criticized Canada’s recent trade deal with China as “political noise” that could upend trade deal renegotiations with the United States.


“Do you think China is going to open their economy to accept exports from Canada? This is the silliest thing I’ve ever seen,” Lutnick said in an interview with Bloomberg TV on Thursday while attending the World Economic Forum at Davos, Switzerland.


Last week, Prime Minister Mark Carney announced a deal with China’s President Xi Jinping that saw China’s 100% import tariffs on Canadian canola mostly dropped in return for improved access to Canada’s electric vehicles market.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford criticized the deal due to the potential repercussions for the province’s auto industry, and slammed the Prime Minister for not warning him ahead of the deal’s announcement.

Carney had touted the deal, calling it the result of efforts to build a better relationship with China, whom he called a “predictable” trade partner.

Speaking to Bloomberg, Lutnick called the deal “just political noise coming out of a prime minister.”

He added, “I don’t think it can be real, because he took out the math of Canada’s economy and doing business with the United States of America’s $30 trillion economy. There’s no such thing as changing what they have today.”



Lutnick also said Canada’s deepening trade relations with China could threaten talks with the U.S. over the revamping of the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA).

“Do you think the president of the United States is going to say, ‘You should keep having the second-best deal in the world?’… They are playing with a set of rules that they haven’t really thought through,” Lutnick said.

During his interview with Bloomberg, he said the renegotiation of CUSMA would likely happen in the summer.
