Europe Isn't a Quick Fix for Canada's Trade Crisis

A partnership still needs twenty-seven countries to agree. And then there’s the ex to deal with

The fact that the EU isn't just one country is what makes it a more reliable trading partner than the U.S. EU countries must collectively decide which trade policies are beneficial, in contrast to the centralized trade power of the U.S. giving it the power to strongarm other countries at the trade negotiating table in a self-serving manner.

A deal with the EU might take longer, but Canada will probably get a better deal from it than out of the U.S., particularly while Trump's protectionist policies are in effect.

There’s some naive tankies who want to halt any port expansion while playing into Trump’s hands.

We're better off dealing with 27 adults than the people that brought us Florida man x2

"Trade crisis," really? It seems like everything that happens gets called a crisis. Climate change is the one that deserves such a word.

Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.
