    Canada’s economy is being held up by a wicker basket and it would take a very tiny shift in US policy to make big problems for us. Canada is a machine for pumping oil, metals, electricity, and cars across the border.

      We’ve bucked American foreign policy interests in the past. Vietnam, Iraq, UN votes relating to Palestine previous to Stephen Harper plus the one I mentioned in my last comment. Yes we are sensitive to US actions but we aren’t total doormats if we have leadership inclined in that direction.
