    He signed a big trade and defense pact with indonesia and a bilateral trade agreement with mexico, partially cutting the us out of north american trade. he’s only been pm for, like, 8 months.

      Did you actually read the agreement? It leaves Canada in $600M trade deficit. Media loves to skip the details.

        Judging trade deals purely on money in vs. money out is Trump thinking.

        Can you explain what a trade deficit is and why it’s bad?

          He doesn’t know like Trump doesn’t know.

        Are you going to demand that you get out of the trade deficit you have with your grocer of choice?

        Why not? Are you to afraid that capitalism would then be replaced with communism? It is important that you understand what Trump is talking about before you echo him.

      Not only has he signed multiple trade agreements, but the trade data is showing a solid shift way from the US to other countries already -despite the fact that most industry works on contracts that are longer than 8 months. The fact that it’s already moving is impressive. https://newsinteractives.cbc.ca/features/2025/canada-international-trade/

        I imagine that Russia was Ukraine’s biggest trading partner before 2012. Reducing trade with Russia probably didn’t seem feasible to some ukrainians before the war started.

        The newly authoritarian US is threatening our country. What choice do we have but to reduce trade with them? I know Canada will be much poorer now that we have been betrayed by our former ally, but i would rather be poor than under that shithead’s boot.

            So we have nothing else to talk about. Fuck Trump. I don’t work with fascists. You should be ashamed of yourself.
