The right move for Canada and Mexico is to pay the bill up front and move enough trade to other countries so USA will never be able to use strong-arm tactics again.
And that’s what’s happening, Europe is very interested in Canada and I hope Mexico will also get a piece of that.
Funny thing, given USAs current state as a rabid axis initiate that’s frothing from the mouth, what Egypt and the Arab states propose seems reasonable, and something that can be built upon.
Neat!
