Ignoring Trump and the USA is the new Elbows Up

Prime Minister Mark Carney and his team are so over it.
From scampering in search of meetings with President Donald Trump and top U.S. aides all spring, summer and early fall — including the PM travelling twice to Washington and overseas to Egypt where he hailed Trump’s dealmaking — to now shrugging off the current suspension of trade talks, Carney is taking a different tack to Trump. And to the politics of a minority Parliament.

Not negotiating is the new black.
Where Carney was once in nearly a 24/7 texting-back-and-forth relationship with Trump (as he told Toronto Life on Oct. 16), and their negotiating teams were inching close to a deal, the prime minister and the president have had no contact on trade since the APEC summit in Korea, his office confirmed to the Star Friday.
Instead, Carney and his team are making a show of biding their time.
“We’re not going to wait around and look at our phones and turn up the notifications to make sure we don’t miss a ding because somebody sent us a text message at 9:30 at night,” said Canada-U.S. Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc this week.
“We’re going to get on with building the Canadian economy that’s more resilient, that’s more diversified, do deals with new trading partners, with long-standing trading partners in parts of the world where we can expand opportunities for Canadian businesses and Canadian workers.”
That’s in contrast to what Carney told Toronto Life before things blew up.
Back then — a whole month ago — Carney said he received texts from the president “in the middle of the night, early in the morning, all hours of the day.” The texts were written in “a lot of caps. And exclamation marks. And there is no time limit — there is a 24/7 element to it. In other words, it is not apparent how much the president of the United States sleeps.”

I mean if the US Supreme Court rules that Trump has no power to unilaterally enact tariffs, then he can ignore Trump. If that doesn't happen, he will have to turn around.
 
Trump has a million ways to keep Tariffs even if the scotus rules against his emergency power to do so. He is testing them to see if the highest court in the land is corrupt.

People shouldnt get their hopes up that Trumps tariffs will go away. Infact he will make them permanent soon but that is a story for another day
 
Lets get this straight Carney essentially attacked the united states with that ad by attempting to sway the Supreme Court decision on Tariffs. Carney has been following Trump around the globe attempting to subvert the USA agenda on trade and its economy. Carney is prowar and anti American as he has always been. Trump finally says i have had enough of the red coat and is done dealing with him and his masters. The media then reports that Carney is brave and amazing for ignoring Trump and USA. It is USA ignoring Canada and this isnt going to go well for him or us.

Honestly i am impressed by the stupidity of it all.
