I've reached out to her a couple of times, along with the PM and Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale. She knows who I am and the thorn in the side I have been in exposing Canadian abuses of NAFTA. I provide these details with little guilt.
In this lob ball interview with Fareed Zacharia she tells the American viewers how America shouldn't worry about the deficit with Canada as it now has a surplus. What is astounding about this sleight of hand, is after a few decades of ongoing Canada exploitation, miraculously as soon as Trump states publicly that NAFTA has created such trade deficits, Canada all of a sudden sees America with a surplus against them last quarter LOL. Yes America, our government is exploiting you.
THIS is just how coordinated and controlled the Canadian economy is that we can actually seemingly on cue run a deficit with America after more than a decade of a surplus, including a record surplus just recently. The government knew this would be a situation that America would use in negotiations, so Canada tries to convince America how great we are in trade. No mention of jobs Canada has stolen and how little in jobs we give back to America.
Here is the REAL deal regarding trade between Canada and the U.S, we have been
dominating with massive surpluses in goods for a long time, with little innovation ourselves.
Oh how I wish I was an American working on this trade file against Canada and Mexico. I do the next best thing and reach out to the Trump administration, but if they think negotiations are tough now, it would pale in comparison to all the false narratives and shell games Canada has been playing. It's clear America is unhappy with Canada tactics, Canada is trying to hold off as long as possible in hopes American Republicans are weaker in government after 2018 or even 2020. This is Canada taking a long term view.
What would we do if Trump says he is walking away from NAFTA? We would try to covertly get as many politicians on board with Canada as possible, at the expense of the American economy, sovereignty and employee.
This was as of April 2017.
Why Can't America Just Make Everything It Needs?
But the top five trading partners also have the largest deficits. Please note that the Census provides trade data by country for goods only, not services.
Canada's trade surplus with U.S. hits highest level in three years
Canada's trade surplus with U.S. hits highest level in three years
The country's trade surplus with the U.S. hit $5.0 billion for the month, up from $3.4 billion in March, at a time when the Canadian dollar slipped 0.3 cents US compared to the greenback, the federal agency said.
The data could provide ammunition for U.S. President Donald Trump, who has pointed to what he says is America's trade imbalance with Canada as a rationale for sweeping changes to U.S. trade policies, including revamping NAFTA.
