Don't you just love the prophets of unbridled capitalism circling the wagons to protect their industries?

Canada and the US are each other's largest trading partners.  Each market is important to the other.

Why don't we just tell the US to shove it, and live on what we can actually produce ourselves or obtain through genuine free trade with more reasonable countries?  Sure, the cost of imports would be higher due to transportation costs, but the products we already import from non-US companies already bear these costs, so they wouldn't be any more expensive.

Maybe we should just go back to expecting less and depending on our own suppliers.  At one time, we couldn't get oranges in the winter.  But entire generations survived without them.
