   If Trump were smart, he'd make an exception for oil "imported" into the US   
   just to be turned into gasoline to be "exported" back to you all.  That   
   process is keeping Americans employed.  IMHO, I am not sure how we could   
   really even count that as an export since we are only providing the labor.   
   The raw material (oil) comes from Canada and the resulting product   
   (gasoline) is destined to go back.  I guess it just cancels out.

   The constant tariff yo-yo is not doing either country any good.  It has   
   not helped our stock market at all.  Canada learning to become more   
   self-reliant really won't help us, but at least it will help you all out a   
   whole lot in the long run.
