How long will it take for Canada and the US to become close friends and allies again once the tariff problem is resolved?

We will trade with you again…probably. It depends on how horrifically the USA chooses to destroy their economy, our economy and the global economy. If MAGA screw it up badly enough there won’t be any reason to trade with the US because there will be little to trade…the USA will be completely on their own.

The trust is lost…we don’t trust you…we are scared of you…the US made all of this happen…there is no quick reset even if the USA dropped all the tariffs tomorrow and made a heartfelt apology to the world (which of course is not going to happen). We still think collectively you are completely nuts and need to be kept at arm’s length to protect ourselves from you.

Canada and the rest of the world are quickly pivoting all of our trade and security agreements away from the USA because the Americans have shown themselves as a government and a populace to be completely unreliable. The USA and Trump are currently considered the greatest single threat to global security… above Putin and Kim and Xi…

Why is the US going after Canada after all? What is the reason for all this hostility?

I am Canadian, I am fifty years old. I likely have another thirty or so years left in me. The relationship Canada shared with the USA for over 100 years is over and will not be repaired in my lifetime. Anyone who has reached the age of reason in Canada will remember this and it will be at the forefront of our national consciousness for generations to come.
