RockyRoadTravel Posted 38 minutes ago Posted 38 minutes ago At the last minute, after the deal was almost set, the USA added more and more concession demands including "not signing any comprehensive trade agreements with any other country." Is anyone surprised that the Canadians walked away from the table? Canada wasn't going to sign a trade deal that undermines national sovereignty. This failure will cost American consumers as Canada will impose a dollar for dollar tariff taxes on American products, oil, aluminum, steel, agricultural products etc. To protect Canadian based industries. This is the full 23 minutes of Prime Minister Carney's comments after the negotiations collapsed after Lutnick got involved. Carney is clear, coherent and transparent in both English and French.

In the Epstein bubble, Lutnick has already proven himself to be a LIAR..... Add to that the fact that he is an incompetent WHITE DEI hire, it should come as no surprise his involvement couldnt close a deal.... Everyone now knows that NOONE in the Trump administration can be trusted, and their only interest in any negotiation is "making themselves richer".... Quote
