PM Harper and Obama admins were doing this stuff routinely. Note that in 2011, no-fly lists were not shared....but perhaps they are now. Also, since 2011, U.S. Homeland Security reported illegal Canadian overstays in a very public way...that was under Obama. I edited and added above. Read what I quoted from my source. Apparently, it's not law yet. Edited February 14, 2017 by betsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bush_cheney2004 Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 U.S. Sec'y of Defense "Mad Dog" Mattis has fired the first Trump era warning shots at NATO defense spending deadbeats like Canada and Germany: Quote "No longer can the American taxpayer carry a disproportionate share of the defence of Western values," Mattis told the alliance's 27 other defence ministers, according to a text of his remarks. "Americans cannot care more for your children's future security than you do." ...Germany, by contrast, spent 1.19 per cent of its overall budget on defence. Ten countries commit even less, and seven — including Canada, Italy and Spain — would have to virtually double military spending to reach the target. Luxembourg would require a fourfold increase to get close. http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/us-mattis-defence-nato-spending-1.3985126 1 1 Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

bush_cheney2004 Posted February 23, 2017 Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 Justin Trudeau's government is begging for more of Donald Trump's time and attention... Quote Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and President Donald Trump are scheduled to speak by phone today and, according to a senior Liberal, the call is being held at the request of the Canadian government. http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/trudeau-trump-phone-call-1.3995675 Somebody should inform Mr. Trudeau that Mr. Trump is a busy man and doesn't have time to babysit Canada's problems. If it's about illegal refugees crossing the border, then just deport 'em. Seems that Trudeau just can't get enough Trump. Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

OftenWrong Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 Canadian government is very happy that Canadians are more obsessed with Donald Trump/ USA, than their own government. This is exemplified by the discussions here on this forum. Canadians want to know/ argue about Trump despite it being of little relevance.

The Canadian working class makes more money/is more expensive than America's. If anything it's in Canada's best interest to have labour protection amendments to the deal, so we don't lose manufacturing jobs to Indiana like we did in the past. Also "kicking Mexico out" (if it indeed happens) would be a pretty good deal for both the US and Canada tbh. Mexicans have been sure having it good these past few years. Mexico gets rid of millions of it's poor and criminals to the USA, they get American companies to go there for the cheap labor, and I am pretty sure that they benefitted big time from NAFTA. North America will always lose when it comes to Mexico. Trump needs to get that wall built now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
