Just for fun, flesh out this idea of Trudeau standing up to Trump. If Trump says he is re-opening NAFTA, is Trudeau supposed to say no you can't ? If Trump says the U.N, is waste of time and money is Trudeau supposed to say I like it and you have to do what I do ? If Trump cuts taxes in all sectors , what is Trudeau supposed to do,  say you can't ? If Trump says we are going to protectionism under a buy American programme, what is Trudeau supposed to , run the same thing ? We can sell what we produce now, what do you think our economy will look like, if our largest trading partner cuts back ? Trump is very unlikely to have a carbon tax, is Trudeau supposed to stand up and tell him he has to because we have one ? The various scenarios are countless, all with the same answer, we have no clout. When is the last time a PM told the U.S. what to do, or better yet when has the U.S. listened to what we have to say ? Dream on Trudeau lovers !
