The Trump Tariffs and Canada’s History as a Trading Nation

Canada has to decide whether we want to be compatible with United States in our politics and our culture, or insist on moving away from the common North American culture.
Canada has always been of two minds in that regard And sometimes as attempted to isolate the economy and at other times is attempted to integrate.
In recent years the countries drew closer together but after 2016 there has been a divergence that is becoming increasingly apparent. Both countries have been subjected corruption and treason within high offices but the United States is turning away from the creeping coup underway in both countries.
Canada has doubled down on permitting the Global takeover and can't figure out why our old friend has turned a cold shoulder.
The US is sobering up and becoming very concerned about Canadian lawlessness in government and on the streets.
As a result they, without saying so in so many words, are now treating Canada as a foreign adversary or threat and not as a cooperative and friendly neighbor.
The current path seems to indicate that our government and possibly the population are opting to split from the US and have not realized what the cost will be, given so closely our economies have become integrated.
This forced dependency is partly a result of lobbying and manipulation by 'environmentalis' snd "Indigenous" activist/terrorists and diverse NG0s financed by US billionaires and Soros to oppose separate Canadian development.

​TO: The Right Honourable Mark Carney, Prime Minister of Canada
FROM: Jennifer Elizabeth Telfer
​I. The Banker in the PMO
​You have famously stated on camera, "I'm a banker, not a career politician." That much is evident. Your leadership has treated Canada not as a sovereign nation of citizens, but as a balance sheet to be "optimized" for global investors. You are a technician for a vision that seeks to dismantle national independence in favor of the "variable geometry" of global power you promoted at Davos 2026.
​II. The Death of the Trades & The "Build Canada" Scam
​As someone who has worked in the trades for over 15 years, I see the "holes" in your Build Communities Strong Fund. You talk about "supercharging" homebuilding, but your policies are crushing the people who actually do the work:
​The Productivity Trap: You demand 500,000 homes a year while your "hidden" fuel taxes and inflation make it impossible for ...

Someone finally put the truth in print in a Red Deer obituary. She was 71.
" Six years ago. Val’s health began to be compromised. She battled every day to reverse the vaccine injury after long battle in excruciating pain."
