Is it War With yet? That's Trade War. http://normangeestar.net/2017/04/29...u-on-dairy-lumber-trade-amicable-white-house/ Trump Phone Call With Trudeau on Dairy, Lumber Trade ‘Amicable’ – White House Amicable, how sad. Trump has also made rumblings of late about imposing tariffs on Canada’s dairy industry. Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross said that while no immediate further actions were being contemplated, the disputes point to the need to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement sooner rather than later. The United States and Canada faced off on Tuesday in a renewed battle over softwood lumber that threatened to spill over into multiple other sectors, though President Donald Trump said he did not fear a trade war. Trump has directed nearly all of his NAFTA criticism at Mexico, which makes this decision even more surprising. Brett Bruen, the former White House director of public engagement, said now’s the time for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to prove he can draw a USA audience, and communicate directly with the millions of people who could feel protectionism’s sting. Is it war yet?

http://business.financialpost.com/n...oze-property-rights-and-can-con-are-all-on-it Trade relations between Canada and the U.S. are in a rocky patch. Just look at this past week alone. The U.S. imposed stiff tariffs on Canadian lumber shipments. U.S. President Donald Trump says he came close to signing an order to terminate the North American Free Trade Agreement. And last Tuesday, Sen. Jon Tester (Dem-Montana) introduced a Senate resolution that would ask Trump to examine whether Canada unfairly interferes with U.S. wheat shipments. We need to level the trade playing field with Gov't subsidized farm products are not suppose to be dumped on the market. Protecting American food production is protecting American national security. Foreign nations should not get to feed off an tit via unfair trade relations.

Yep, I must confess to a sneaking dislike for free trade deals. Someone always ends up on the losing side.
Telecommunications. The U.S. describes Canada’s 46.7 per cent foreign ownership limit on Canadian telecom companies as “one of the most restrictive regimes among developed countries.” We had a similar issue a few years ago, when Huawei wasn't allowed to build our national broadband network. http://www.smh.com.au/business/huawei-extremely-disappointed-with-nbn-ban-20131101-2wrkd.html

After receiving multiple complaints, Manitoba resident Nick Troller was forced to hand over his license plate that read "ASIMIL8," a reference to the Borg from Star Trek, who assimilate other societies into their own by force.

No Skippy Peanut Butter for You Can No Longer Buy Skippy Peanut Butter in Canadahttp://fortune.com/2017/05/03/skippy-peanut-butter-canada/ Hormel made this decision months ago, but now grocery stores are getting to the end of their supply and Canadians are desperate to find and stockpile remaining jars, according to CBC. While customers can still buy the product on Amazon's Canadian website, the prices are higher than what they're used to in-store. And one loyal customer told CBC that Kraft peanut butter isn't a suitable alternative because "it's just not as creamy, doesn't spread right." Imagine the panic in the streets. Looting, arson, riots of desperate trying to get their Skippy fix. What next. Jelly only in quince flavor?

Blood in the streets at least! That'll teach 'em to mess about with free trade agreements. I bought some Robinsons screws for woodturning yesterday and they haven't gone up in price as $Au and $Canadian are fairly close in value. I noticed this morning that the $Au is going down cf the $Us. That will make our business people happy if they are exporting. How are you this sunny rainfree morning! No new squirrels?
How firm can they be? As firm as a fish that has been dead 10 days? http://www.straitstimes.com/business/canada-to-be-firm-in-trade-conflicts-with-us-justin-trudeau Canada to be 'firm' in trade conflicts with US: Justin Trudeau OTTAWA (AFP) - Prime Minister Justin Trudeau vowed a "firm" and unwavering defense of Canadian interests in the face of US trade attacks, he said Friday (May 19). "We're going to continue to work very, very hard to defend Canada's interests," he said. In late April, the United States imposed a duty on timber imported from Canada and threatened similar sanctions on Canadian dairy products. Then on Thursday, the US Department of Commerce launched an investigation at the request of aerospace manufacturer Boeing into alleged dumping of aircraft built by its Canadian rival Bombardier, with Canadian government financial support, into the US market.

Sounds fishy! Does bombardier make helicopters? Was Boeing the company which trump bagged for the new Air Force one being too expensive? Any squirrels? How's the rabbit?
Do you think this will survive without the US? Canada, 10 other countries will move forward on a new TPP after US withdrawal http://www.660news.com/2017/05/21/c...ove-forward-on-a-new-tpp-after-us-withdrawal/
Think! Close your eyes and think. Corporate State. It doesn't matter what is best for the people, does it. Is TPP good for the people? Hint: No! Similarly with each and every historical event of reorganizing Provinces from autonomous or Crown dominion into a confederation, into a union resulted in the establishment of the Corporate State centered in Ottawa, thieving from those furthest from Ottawa.

I was surprised to read that the purpose of the original TPP was a way of counterbalancing the burgeoning trading might of China.

About 120,000 Canadians with expired visas were still believed to be living in the US at the end of the period covered by the report, versus roughly 47,000 Mexicans. I told you so!
