Hilarious crapola from Canada. That's what blew up the deal.
...Essentially, it boils down to four issues. !1) Removal of tariffs on Canadian assembled Semi-Trucks. (2) U.S. streaming services writing code for “search engines” in the French language. (3) Canada demanding 5% of gross revenues from U.S. tech platforms, and the last one is silly because it already exists: (4) the U.S. having a right to reject a trade deal made by Canada with a non-market economy, ie. CHINA....
The Silly Senatrix from Wisconsin couldn't figure out what that (2) actually meant, so she decried it as 'the US demanding Culture Change in Canada' or some such asinine claim.
Carney wants political points AND prefers to deal with Red China.
Hope the Snow Mexicans enjoy that ride!

Trump blew up the deal. He’s imploding.
—The RealClearPolitics average has him at 39% job approval, 59% disapproval. The Economist this week had a piece titled “How unpopular is Donald Trump?” Its own poll found him dramatically underwater, 34% to 61%.
The magazine said voters are “uneasy about the president’s ability to deal wisely with an international crisis.”
Mr. Trump has survived bad numbers before. I think people enjoy registering disapproval of his leadership, whether they voted for him or not.
But there’s no denying the current erosion of his position. His political problem with Iran is not only that the conflict is dangerous and unresolved, or that his attempts at diplomatic resolution seem half-baked, but that almost six months in, he seems utterly out of his depth, like someone who wouldn’t have gone in there had he understood history or the nature of Iran’s leadership.
Another problem: From the beginning, much of Mr. Trump’s political persona was based on his rejection of foreign adventures. Now he’s launched a war of choice that has produced a strategic maze.”—
