It's geographically impossible for Canada to completely eliminate trade with the US.

I absolutely agree that it should be minimized, though.

Yeah, we should do both. Minimize the damage and reduce reliance. I think quitting cold turkey might lead to worse outcomes, including a possible reorientation towards the US under a prospective reactionary conservative government.

Pretty much where I'm at. We absolutely should do everything we can to minimize the impact of American volatility to our economy, but damaging our economy more than necessary to do so is counterproductive. Stringing on the bullshit until we have a clear exit plan is the smart move, distasteful as that may be.

We can do minimal trade, and only when absolutely necessary, with Blue states.
