    No problem, boot them out of the country and nationalize their factories. About time Canada took charge of car production and reduced its reliance on the USA and crappy multi-national car makers.

      I love the vibe but we would have to address the legalities. Once that is done we would also have to come to grips with foreign investment drying up. I say we can do it, but nobody, including yourself, would be willing to accept the resulting standard of living. I’m not sure how we get from under the current system but we should be pursuing that at every turn.

        This implies most people will roll over and accept corporate fascism and foreign control to maintain their standard of living. Which is not necessarily false. But is that what you believe?

        Uh… at every court hearing say that we are facing “technical difficulties” and are indefinitely postponing your court date.

      Nationalize their factories?

      What product would we build in these nationalized factory?

      Where would the parts come from?
