Trump warned he will impose additional tariffs on the European Union and Canada if they band together to “do economic harm” against the United States.

Get @#$%ed, Trump. Good read. Short but detailed about how partnered we are already and what our next priorities should be

That's weirdly definitive considering most Canadians would support the idea, if it were definitely possible.

    I support close ties with the EU but I don’t want Canada to join the EU. The EU has said it’s never going to happen either. A country in North America joining another continent?? Is silly. Having randos in Brussels make decisions for Canada?? No thank you.

    When? I keep hearing this but I'm pretty sure no such statement has been made.

    A little, yes.

    Having randos in Brussels make decisions for Canada?? No thank you.

    So, any level of integration is going to involve that. IIRC Even now we have to respect EU heritage foods designations as part of CETA.
