“I am ready to sit down with President Trump at the appropriate time under a position where there is respect for Canadian sovereignty and we are working for a common approach, a much more comprehensive approach for trade,” Carney said.

This is the way. Leaders need to stop entertaining the orange idiot. He's the shitty kid that breaks stuff to get attention. Trump needs a time out.

I like Iran's attitude. They said "Whatever. Do what you're going to do." and didn't bother having more of a conversation.

This is what Canada needs to do.

There will be a civil war in the US if it happens because way more than half of americans don't want to invade canada

I'd like to think so, but seeing how most of the population of the US is very disconnected from and apathetic about politics, current affairs, or anything outside of their personal bubble, I'm not going to rely on that possibility.

They will pay attention when their prices skyrocket. Other then that they are braindead to anything else. I say, let it happen.

Maybe, but there's a good chance that they'll blame Canada.

On one hand, more than 50% of Americans read below a 6th grade level so it wouldn't be surprising if they misattributed the blame. I doubt many would be able to tell you what a tariff is or how it works.

But on the other, greater than 50% are not pleased with how Trump has handled the economy thus far and the consequences haven't even hit their wallets yet.

Americans are extremely disconnected politically but if there's one thing they care about its the price of gas. If that goes up substantially then they will blame the president.
