Mexico Is Negotiating With Trump… Why Isn’t Canada?

What happens if Mexico gets a trade deal with Donald Trump — and Canada gets left behind? After more than 20,000 views and 650 comments on “Elbows Down,” Vince Gaetano is back for ROUND TWO. This time, there’s a major new question Canadians need to consider: while Canada and the United States trade tariffs, counter-tariffs and political rhetoric, Mexico is negotiating. Could Mexico secure tariff relief from the Trump administration while Canada continues fighting a trade war? And if it does, will Canada have to admit that anger and retaliation were never a substitute for an actual economic strategy? In this video, Vince breaks down Trump’s tariffs, Canada-U.S. trade, Mexico’s negotiating strategy, Canadian job losses, unemployment, mortgage pressure, household cash flow, productivity and the real economic cost of uncertainty. Canada lost 42,000 jobs in August. Ontario lost 18,000. Wage growth has slowed, Canadians are struggling with affordability, and businesses are being forced to make investment decisions without knowing what the Canada-U.S. trade relationship will look like tomorrow. This isn't about surrendering to Donald Trump. It's about asking a much harder question: Should Canada keep trying to prove how tough it is — or get back to the negotiating table and GET THE DEAL? Because Trump didn't create all of Canada's economic problems. Productivity, housing affordability, interprovincial trade barriers, taxation, regulation, business investment and infrastructure were Canadian challenges long before this trade war began. Donald Trump will eventually leave office. Canada's problems will still be here. 🇨🇦 Canada-U.S. Trade 🇺🇸 Trump Tariffs 🇲🇽 Mexico-U.S. Trade 📉 Canadian Jobs & Unemployment 💰 Cost of Living 🏠 Mortgages & Household Cash Flow 📊 Canadian Economy 🏭 Productivity & Business Investment If Mexico gets a trade deal before Canada, does that prove “Elbows Down” was right?
