Tariffs didn’t make Canada the 45th state, and they won’t make us the 51st.

🇨🇦
One reason for the tariffs was to force the annexation of Canada. The McKinley Tariff declined to make an exception for Canadian products.
It was hoped this would make Canada more reliant on the US market, and push Canadians to become the 45th state.

@aleach.ca What do you think about the idea of the federal government supporting the construction of an oil pipeline from Alberta to the Atantic financial in the same way the Kenney Gov. tried to re-launch KXL?

A thread on Smith's US policy.
1) I told the Premier in mid-November that I thought going to Trump's inauguration was a good idea. Now this was before the 25% tariff threat and annexation trolls. But I still think it is important to keep the diplomatic channels open.
