Canada has always been the polite, quiet powerhouse that punches way above its weight geo-politically, and it is doing it again under the impressive leadership chops of its current Prime Minister, Mark Carney.
Over the last few decades, particularly from the time when Ronald Reagan was President in the United States (in the 1980s), and Brian Mulroney was Canada’s Prime Minister (also in the 1980s), their personal rapport and their political and economic ideological affinity resulted in the first ‘Free Trade Agreement’ between Canada and the United States.
After months of creating chaos in the world economies by his constantly shifting-mind, on what he thought appropriate tariffs should be on various countries trading with the US, Trump has decided which country should be paying what in terms of trade tariffs.
It is only the most ignorant and blindly loyal supporters of Trump that are unaware of the fact that America’s greatness is being systematically dismantled by an inept and self-serving leader.
