Trump always walks away from the table at the last minute to try to get better terms. He would have just used a different excuse to do so.
Note that the ad did get the US Senate to vote against Canadian tariffs by a narrow margin. The issue is now the House.
That is what T is really mad about.

Ford is spending over $6 B a year to hide the increase from the public, enough to buy a heat pump p for every house in Ontario within 10 years.
Doubling down on nuclear to pay an American company for SMRs that only run on American fuel is Elbows down.

Anyone crossing the border for the winter is a traitor. Go to the Carribean or Mexico instead. The Mediterranean is dirt cheap in the off season.

40,000 of those jobs were in Alberta, most of them in oil. Is that the type of economy we want?

Exporting more fossil fuels is not a sustainable economic strategy.
We should rope tariffs on Chinese EVs based on a 1965 style Auto Pact that requires foreign EV manufacturers to purchase parts made in Canada.
That's how the Cdn auto parts industry was built, it works and is fair.

The CEO of a pipeline that was $20 B overbudget is fundamentally unqualified for her current role, let alone her opinion on climate.

Seriously? ... opinion based on facts not in evidence, aka wishful thinking.
Exporting more fossil fuels increases extraction emissions as well as combustion emissions.
Artificial carbon storage is still not real. If it were we would see oil patch emissions dropping, not rising.

Somehow announcing a plan featuring resource extraction as the basis for the new economic revival of Canada is not believable.
Creating 400 jobs at a copper mine, when more people lost jobs at General Fusion due to lack of capital?
Which has more potential to rewrite the Canadian economy?

Sadly, including the current federal gov that on Friday not only walked back yet another climate policy, but now wants to build another oil pipeline.
