   You replied to me but quoted only Rob.  I agree they will be difficult to   
   switch back.  My opinion is that each country needs to do what is best for   
   them.  Since Canada especially didn't deserve a screwing over, IMHO, if   
   what they decide to do screws us over in return I cannot blame them one bit.   
      
   Sounds like, at the very least, it might get them moving towards making   
   trade easier between their own provinces which, in the long run, would be   
   of benefit to Canada and maybe even their international trade partners.
