“This is personal for Canadians.” I do hope this holds. The Canadian economy is so dependent on US trade that there will be economic hardship that might put pressure on the PM and his cabinet to sign a bad deal. I do worry about AB and SK provincial governments undermining the federal government strategy. On the bright side, the economy growing at 3.3% in Q2 and impressive upcoming investments might give Canada just enough cushion to weather the uncertainty, I hope.
I easily believe the PM & his cabinet have their finger on the pulse of how this is impacting households and businesses. & absolutely, Canada is going into this period on a relatively strong footing re last week’s Q2 GDP results, it could be worse. Still there’s weakness in the job market. It’s not so much that Canada wouldn’t also be affected by this, it’s just interesting to note that the US is also in this period quite vulnerable
