It’s past the time for Canada to start cutting as many ties with the US as humanly possible. No more F-35s. Ditch the autopact and make one with Asia, Africa and Europe. Make individual trade deals with some states perhaps and treat those more like sovereign countries. Treat the US like the fascist country it has become.
There’s no doubt that not having the US in NATO weakens it, but if they’re going to act like the enemy maybe NATO would be better off.
@NunavutBirder we should align our vehicle standards with EU. Emissions would be difficult, but safety is relatively simple because other than yank-tanks most reasonable cars are very similar to the ones sold in Europe.
Our best assets here are the St Lawrence/Great Lakes seaway system and the railroads. We need better inland ports and east-west transportation though. Anybody that’s done Hwy 17 knows.
Building codes would be more difficult to decouple but it would be so nice to get rid of the last pieces of the awful imperial system :)
