This would be wonderful for Canadian consumers who desperately need to break free of the caste system. If American financial institutions are on an even playing field here, if telecom and other players are in the market, it will not only force any of the Creepy Ones to risk a major backlash from the U.S (as I hope Americans learned from their actions in IBM in Toronto), but, Americans will ask angrily "why do you have your terrorists interfering in our corporations and trade"?
If Trump holds the line, consumers everywhere will benefit rather than American job producers in the U.S being restricted to fair access. Just as the Creepy Ones restrict Canadian access to employment and careers. Not to mention our marriages and mortgages!

OTTAWA — U.S. President Donald Trump will accept nothing short of “completely open markets” to American goods in other countries, his commerce secretary said Tuesday, as uncertainty continues over whether Canada and a host of nations can reach agreements with the United States before Trump’s latest threatened tariffs are supposed to kick in Friday.
The statement comes as Canada’s cabinet point-person on U.S. trade talks, Dominic LeBlanc, travels to Washington for the second time in recent days for what Prime Minister Mark Carney described Monday as an “intense” phase of negotiations before this week’s deadline.
Speaking Tuesday on U.S. television network CNBC, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said Trump is ready to impose his threatened tariffs and “move on” unless deals are reached by Friday. Lutnick also said the U.S. has rejected offers from several countries, which he didn’t name, that fall short of the access Trump wants for American exports.
