Canadian reaction

Canada was stung by the Trump remarks about becoming the 51st state and the voters reacted by electing a liberal government. This was not the direction the people wanted to go but it was an emotional reaction that many now regret. The new PM Mark Carney was particularly upset by Trump and has put forth his zero-carbon agenda aggravating the Western Provinces. In an attempt to face down the US, Carney has recently made an agreement with China to import 49,000 EV’s in exchange for lower Chinese tariffs which were imposed by the US. This at a time when the North American auto industry is writing off $70 billion dollars in loses due to low demand for EV’s. This will have a negative effect on the Canadian auto industry but it will show the Americans that they cannot do what ever they please. One could expect individuals to react with petty squabbles but not leaders of countries.
