    I don’t know what you are talking about. We obviously have many people who have to be on a (tight) budget right now. I never said that I want cheap or that I don’t shop Canadian.

    I am all for that. I just don’t think counter tariffs are a solution.

    The whole polarization and anger gets us nowhere. People do what they can and yeah sure some don’t care. The whining from the USA on how nasty we are though tells me enough Canadians (including me) care and that the boycott is working.




  • The thing is they are a huge neighbour and will stay a huge neighbour. We have to work with what we have. I hope we are going to be smart about it (smarter than in the past) but the USA isn’t going away.

    I’ll stick with my ABA and travel boycott and so should every Canadian but we still are neighbours. I have lots of US co-workers and deal with them daily. I’ll be professional and keep neighbourly working with them but we aren’t friends. I think (hope!) that’s what Carney is mostly doing. Granted I don’t like everything I see but in general I think his approach is good.
