Let’s go. Yes it will be painful but it’s a view on long term strength. Cant wait to see the new last minute terms they introduced to kill this deal. It will prove all along what has been said: that they are unreliable place to do business.

What part of their unregulated food industry did we just avoid? How much free access to our water did they demand? How many military bases did they want on Canadian soil? How many seats on committees did they demand?

    We are lucky the americans so helpfully showed their lack of good faith before it was signed instead of the following Tuesday.

    I also was totally expecting a handshake deal followed by renegging on the terms a couple days later.

    But it seems instead, the Trump admin's negotiation strategy is the Craiglist "I know I said OK to $40 but I'm already here and I only have $25 cash on me" gambit.
