Drifting to war.

I think the ultimate issue has been pointed at by @Van . Many in the US want to return to a state where the US does not rely on other nations. At the same time most, if not all, of our alies rely on the US.

The difference is the US can survive without those countries, but those countries cannot without the US.

I agree with @Van that a sovereign nation should not be dependent on another nation for its existence. Today, most are.

Odd that you would say the US can survive without the other nations. They clearly require major inputs from other countries just to exist but those in the US have been told for so long that they do not they actually believe it.

But then again the US could exist at about a 1900's level but not as a modern society.

63% of U.S. crude oil imports come from Canada

In perspective, 97% of Alberta’s oil exports go to the US. It is a different story when you see both sides.

You are not telling me something I do not know. That is why we want to get a pipeline to the north coast and also to the east coast.

Canada has had a good relationship with the US but under Trum* that has become an untrustworthy one due to his erratic behaviour.

Now all we have to do is get rid of the Liberal government so we can let business do what it does best.
