  Canada has already moved on, the US is for the most part still in denial about that. The trade percentages of what Canada exports to the US is already at the lowest levels in decades and continues to fall. The PM has already stated "The relationship with the US is over and will never be the same again" Americans thinking this is just going to go back to normal are in heavy denial. The damage this orange clown caused is generational and permanent. I feel many Americans don't truly understand the depth of it.

  The world sees america as a crazy nation.  Canadians are furious with trump's insults and are willing to deal with countries that respect our sovereignty.  Most Canadians are done with tds, trump's devoted slaves.

  Justin - thank you for reminding your colleagues that this is NOT a TRADE war.      And you're absolutely right that it will take a generation (at least). It's not just the orange one, it's the fact that millions upon millions of Americans voted for this two or three times.

  &quot;They could be next&quot; - you mean <i>exactly</i> how Canadian ministers visiting abroad warned those nations about, <i>last year</i> ?

  As a Canadian, I am beyond sad and disappointed by how easy it was for such low IQ criminals to take down and paralyze the USA&apos;s government and media. <br>The USA will likely never recover as the world has now seen how weak they truly are. The &quot;strength&quot; was a facade, like a poorly built Hollywood set.

  THANK-YOU Justin for stating the Canadian position clearly. Years ago, Trump stated he wanted to defeat Canada, and he said he could do it economically. The U.S. trade &quot;negotiators&quot; attempted to attack our economy, our culture and our sovereignty. This is no longer just about money. It&apos;s about Canadian&apos;s right to govern ourselves. We will never surrender.

  From what I&apos;ve seen and heard from Canadians is they have simply moved on and any relationship is over and they have no desire to repair it because the failure of the US system has been exposed and will still exist and therefore be susceptible to another Trump. It has shown to the rest of the world that the US is a threat to their sovereignty and trade and only a leader like Carney can stand up to these threats.
