I’d also say: he should talk to his administration about their illegal softwood lumber tariffs. The US is keeping numerous Canadian products either out of the US or taking an inappropriate cut before the American consumer gets to see the products. This has been validated in international court. If the US sticks to legitimate, predictable and legal trade with Canada, Canada will be more than happy to increase import trade with the US.
Ambassador Hoekstra wants American booze back on Canadian shelves next year

Canada, please, ban it harder!

Don't worry we are doing our best. Quite frequently I see fruit/vegetables on sale at the grocery store, go to pick it up, see it is a product of United States and pass. The shelf will be untouched. People will pay a couple more dollars to not buy American. They had to change the labeling on many items by repacking stuff in Canada to get rid of the made in US label because people weren't buying anything.

Why am I a jackass for not wanting to give 1 penny to the american govt t all if possible?
Foxer 13 points a month ago
Misunderstanding there I think, I was referring to Hoekstra, the reply is meant to be a reply directly to him about wanting American booze back on Canadian shelves not you. Sorry for the confusion, my bad
Bebopalouie 6 points a month ago
Yup. I am almost 70 and am almost blind, definitely senile and then there’s confusion. Sorry about that.

Thank you. Not sure why I got downvoted. Communication works well thought I find.

Why stock a product that is unlikely to sell?
Bebopalouie 6 points a month ago
Can stock it all they want, does not mean peops will buy.

Ladies and gentlemen, the best US diplomacy has to offer us.

If he wants to see US booze for sale in Canada all he needs to do is come to Saskatchewan where our intoxicated joke of a premier put it back up, or go to Alberta where Smith wanted to help the drunks out.

What the fuck? Since when are buying this shit from them?
“Hoekstra announced Canada will be receiving its first F-35s on Oct. 14 at the Luke Air Force Base in Phoenix, Ariz. — a massive F-35 training facility. It's the first time that date has been revealed publicly. Canada is contractually committed to buying at least 16 of the aircraft.”
Reannlegge 8 points a month ago
There was this whole thing several years back where the air force put out “bids” to the one company to update our fleet of jets. The order has been cut down to I believe only these 16 jets and than changed to substantially more griphens

No problem. Restore the rule of law and basic human rights for everyone, including getting all the corruption out of government, and The White House in particular, and I, personally, would welcome American booze back on Canadian shelves. Not that I would ever buy any...
