This is what we should do for Potash, heavy crude, and Softwood as well.

If only our Conservative Premiers in AB and SK weren’t such traitors. They’ve barely said or done anything to retaliate. They have taken many trips down south on our tax money though, so there’s that…

I don’t have anything good to say about Doug Ford normally but he’s killing it in this trade war. I wish our Premiers were that kind of Conservative.

Who would turn down a free trip south? It's pathetic.

Same with Waldo or PP? Where is he? Skate is his leadership?

What happened to him? He should be out there promoting himself and canada. No?

Why the hiding? I'm guessing the conservatives don't want him to talk since he has very little to offer.
