It was about unfair trade practices. America isn't allowed to do business here. American telecom companies have tried to penetrate this market but get blocked by bell and rogers to keep a monopoly. Usa banks can't operate here yet our banks are down there. They do protect us militarily. Libs keep thinking trudeau was the hero here when his last comment on the phone call was yes sir. Lol

Quit listening to Trump.
He is lying when his lips are moving.
Do you know how many American companies are doing business in Canada?
There are US banks operating in Canada.

Canada continues to strengthen border security and immigration integrity

Today, the Honourable David J. McGuinty, Minister of Public Safety, and the Honourable Marc Miller, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, provided key updates on the impacts of recent measures to reinforce the integrity of our shared border with the United-States (U.S.) and our...

Todays deal goes further than the first one proposed....I know the leftists are all for open borders and all but that just wasn't going to happen. They're upset but they'll get over it in due time.

I declare this a win for the common sense citizens of both Canada and the U.S.

This is absolutely true. That's why people who argue for free trade don't realize (or ignore) it's all managed trade. Mexico is far worse with the exceptions and government intrusion into American investment into Mexico.

I don't think Trump blinked at all. I think this was all planned, he didn't take any calls till the last day and he scored major for the Americans that I'm sure are very happy with his accomplishments. I'm not happy with all these threats against our country and I'm ready to buy all Canadian if I have to.
He'll either let in go in a month or there can be more demands, but Canadians will be fed up and become tougher and may not be willing to give in to other demands. I think this is his style.

No nation allows other nations to set up telecommunications companies in theirs. It's a national security issue. US bank do operate here

Trump wrong, U.S. banks can and do operate in Canada, association and professor say

The association representing bankers in Canada says U.S. subsidiaries and branches represent half of all foreign bank assets in the country, despite false claims by…

What they don't like is our strict banking laws so they can fuck around and get bailouts.

My SO btw works for an American company's Canadian branch. With multiple international offices.

You really are just talking out of your ass now.

The banks are here already. You've been told that already in this thread. Go google it ffs!

And there was nothing about American telecom companies in the talks.

They aren't allowed deposits under 150,000$ making it impossible to compete. American telecom has tried for years to come to Canada to combat the high prices but have always been blocked. Everyone knows that. I'll await your liberal name calling rebuttal lol.

Wait until Trump go after Canada has tightly controlled supplies of dairy, eggs and poultry since the 1970s, restricting how much farmers can produce and limiting imports through onerous tariffs. Trump will want acesss to that market especially the Quebec dairy market! I hope Trump get it ! This will straw that the lefties can’t spin as a win if Trump get access to Quebec diary market. ! Trudeau or any Canadian / Liberal government want the Quebec federal seat to stay in power they must protect the cherished Quebec dairy market! Trump did mention the banks and in passing and mentioned the diary market too. It supposed to be free trade!

They didn't get it last time. And they won't this time. Especially now with looser inspections and all the other deregulation of food going on.

We won't compromise our food supply, nor our food supply chain. Covid taught a valuable lesson on food security.

And his own party will not let him tariff. If you think this was Trump winning you are quite naive. A 1 Congressional seat majority means 2 can kill his legislation. And they have voters and donors in numerous states who gave them an earful.

3 seats in the Senate. With 3 already hating him still? He is walking a tight wire and needs those votes later.

Why would we want to bank with drifters used to lax banking laws that will fuck around?

We have 5 major banks, several smaller ones, as well as Credit Unions. More than enough. The US banks can stick to facilitating international business deals.

I have no issue with managed trade where nations can have certain foreign investment limitations.

I don't want the USA controlling our farming, food supply(you can send things up that meet our standards in processed form), natural resources, things like Potash(we told China to fuck off as well on this). Absolutely not in banking and Telecommunications. That's a national security thing.

Cripes you guys are banning Tic Tok on that basis and you think we want another nation in on our actual infrastructure? Would you let another nation do that?
