That's why it is called.."GM Canada". Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

Canada as the 51st state. ..But regardless of whether he goes that extreme or not, as long as there is ANY discomfort for Canadian business, you are going to see another rise in the calls to join the USA. These have been somewhat quiet of late, but I am betting that they will start again. Quote

SpankyMcFarland Posted January 28, 2017 Report Posted January 28, 2017 A while back somebody asked why the 'obsession' with Trump. I hope they can see why now. Quote
