normanchateau Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 Gee, they get 1, we get 4. We get access to the US, and what taxes the lumber companies pay now go to us and not the US or the US lumber companies. Sounds good to me. Sounds like grovelling to me. When a bully steals $5 from you, bloodies your nose and gives you back $4, he's still a thieving bully. When the bully in question pours money all over you every year you learn to make a few accomodations. Here's a hypothetical question. When China imports as much as the US does from Canada, would you feel the same way? Quote
Argus Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 Here's a hypothetical question. When China imports as much as the US does from Canada, would you feel the same way? China will never even begin to approach the importance of the US as a trading partner, and the US will never even begin to approach China's level of brutality and human rights abuses.

I don't think China will ever get out of its own way. Quote Free speech: "You can say what you want, but I don't have to lend you my megaphone." Always remember that when you are in the right you can afford to keep your temper, and when you are in the wrong you cannot afford to lose it. - J.J. Reynolds. Will the steps anyone is proposing to fight "climate change" reduce a single temperature, by a single degree, at a single location? The mantra of "world opinion" or the views of the "international community" betrays flabby and weak reasoning (link).
