Every Country in the World tries to arrange their trade so that it benefits them. When America follows suit, the other players get their panties in a wad.
And trump wants Putin into the G8 again... he thinks its unfair they are left out.
Russia was suspended from the G8 in 2017 following its invasion and annexation of the Crimea region of he Ukraine. Thereupon, to protest the suspension, they formally withdrew. To readmit them would be granting approval of the invasion and annexation.
But then, our President thinks befriending Russia is a "good thing". No one else does, but he does.
What boils down to is Europe and Canada are so used to the USA getting screwed in trade deals, they think it's the way things are supposed to be. We are just supposed to bend over and like it.
Trump is a little off base in regards to Canada. Well we could stand to lose our supply management system for dairy or eggs, our population is less than California, so having complete access to our market is not a panacea to fix any problems with your dairy or eggs.
In regards to oil, the USA is screwing Canada for 10s of billions of dollars per year.
If you have problems with Mexico, deal with it, but don't throw Canada under the bus.
Please explain to me how Canada is getting screwed by the USA in regards to oil? Serious question.
When people face the possibility of freezing or starving there is little chance they are going to listen to unfounded claims of climate doomsday from a bunch of ultra-rich yacht sailing private jet-setting carbon-spewing hypocrite elites

Yes, please explain how Canada is getting screwed by the U.S. regarding oil.
Canada seems to want to pump its crude oil across the U.S. to Louisiana for refining and exporting, isn't that what the TRANS-CANADA pipeline is all about?
DJS, The US has some flights over the South China Sea, however the Us Navy not so much. China calls out the US as the aggressor , standard procedure. However, the French Navy sails into and through the South China Sea, and is asked by the Chinese , "what are you intentions ?" The French just answer "we are in international waters."
Th eFrench are incouraging European Allies to do the same.
US foundations are funding anti-oil, anti-refinery, anti-pipeline protesters which are causing quite an issue up here because our panti-waist Prime Minister won't enforce the laws. We have lost several major projects since the bozo has been in office.
Because of the US is our only client and because of the type of oil, a barrel is discounted $20.
Our oil needs to get to tide water so that we can get international prices. As someone said, the US doesn't need our oil right now, you are self sufficient.

No..."The US" is not funding these protests. Some green weenie organizations within the US may be, but the Nation as a whole is not. And I think you'd find the general consensus in the US is to let the oil flow!

Your country's mining industry is screwing us royally, and you leave the crap piles behind, so who the hell cares about you? I sure don't. We no longer want to depend on hard industrial products that are essential to our national security being foreign supplied. As to oil, we can produce all we need within our borders. Your oil industry's greed is why we are "screwing" you. You lie back with legs spread from greed.
The fact is we don't need you at all, and your snowflake you elected realizes it and is pissing into his panties.
Europe will get a hard eye-opening soon if they stay on course. They'll be bankrupt and Muzzie, and Russia will be their only hope. Some fate!
So what you are saying is that your environmental laws are not adequate or not being enforced?
You are right, Trudeau is a snowflake, but I voted for Harper, not this buffoon.
For a laugh, watch his pathetic wife (who is supposed to be a singer in Quebec).
Still trying to understand how a 'free trade' agreement is thousands of pages long and not just one sentence, "We agree to not tax each other's goods."

Amen. It isn't simple if it's more than a single page.
You can roll a turd in peanuts, dip it in chocolate, and it still ain't no damn Baby Ruth.
What is hard for some here to swallow is that with out France there would have been no USA.
Its all right to be white!! Stupidity left unattended will run rampant Don't argue with stupid people, They will drag you down to their level and then win by experience
