   That does sound smart when considering the fact that the world has a limited   
   oil supply. However, even if Canada gave us an excellent price, uninterrupted,   
   I'm afraid of what can happen to the price when (for example) the USA starts   
   complaining about a lack of border enforcement.   
      
    RM> Instant gratification. Trump doesn't seem to worry much about anything   
    RM> that will cause problems more than 4 years in the future..   
      
   You're right, but Biden made us hungry for all this satisfaction. Trump could   
   accidentally set off a nuclear bomb, and after putting that on a scale, we'd   
   still be happy that Biden is gone.

    RM> When Trump was making election speeches I don't recall him mentioning   
    RM> 25% tariffs on Mexican and Canadian Imports. He definitely went on about   
    RM> making America great again, but that's not unusual..   
      
   He wasn't that specific, but I found (for example and article from PBS from   
   Sep 27, 2024 (well before Election Day) that quotes him like this:   
      
   "Former President Donald Trump has proposed a 60% tariff on goods from China   
   and a 20% tariff on everything else the United States imports."   
      
   https://www.pbs.org/newshour/economy/trump-favors-huge-new-tariffs-how-do-they-   
   work   
      
   He's mentioned it elsewhere too, but my point is that we were warned about   
   this long before it ever happened and before he was re-elected.   
      
   I'm confident that Pierre Poilievre will be able to help us resolve these   
   issues.   
      
    RM> No, I think too many people on both sides of the border are mad about   
    RM> this and I can't see what he's doing being good for ordinary people,   
    RM> although your super rich probably love him..   
      
   I can't speak for the super rich, but I have yet to hear any Trump supporters   
   rescinding their endorsement of President Trump. I like Canada, and I have a   
   few friends from Ontario, but I love President Trump. I literally pray for him   
   every single day.
