Canada's wonder boy whom some wonder about had no idea what Canada does for America was simply no match for the former TV series host. In defiance, the wonder boy resigns with his last breath proclaiming there is not a snowball's chance in hell that Canada would join the U.S.

If we lost the dollar... That would make us a third-world country and we can't let it happen.
Trump makes a number of interesting statements regarding why sovereign countries should not be allowed to trade with their own currency.
- 1:16 mins If we lost the dollar continuing as the world's currency I think that would be the equivalent of losing a war. That would make us a third-world country and we can't let it happen.
- 2:00 mins If you don't honor the dollar as the world's currency..... that's OK I am going to put tariffs all over your products.
- 3:01 mins And these countries like Russia. It's going out now and doing its own thing and ya know they're going out bragging about how they don't need us anymore. etc etc...

29 Nov 2024 - Merkel blows a hole in Washington’s Nord Stream narrative
Berlin was fully aware that Washington wanted to kill off Nord Stream. And that it was just using Russia as a scapegoat to steal a massive new energy market for itself.
“The United States argued that its security interests were affected by the building of the pipeline because its ally Germany would make itself too dependent on Russia. In truth, I felt that the United States was mobilizing its formidable economic and financial resources to prevent the business ventures of other countries, even their allies,” Merkel writes.

21 Dec 2019 - Nord Stream 2: Trump approves sanctions on Russia gas pipeline
President Donald Trump has signed a law that will impose sanctions on any firm that helps Russia's state-owned gas company, Gazprom, finish a pipeline into the European Union.
The sanctions target firms building Nord Stream 2, an undersea pipeline that will allow Russia to increase gas exports to Germany. The US considers the project a security risk to Europe. Both Russia and the EU have strongly condemned the US sanctions. Congress voted through the measures as part of a defence bill last week and the legislation, which described the pipeline as a "tool of coercion", was signed off by Mr Trump on Friday.
Enter a new hope although Trump's shell game is strong as a victim who always screams we are being ripped off. America can add a zero to the balance sheet, fire up the printing press, and buy goods with the fake Fiat dollar. Canada's energy minister has entered the ring saying Trump's statements that the US doesn’t need anything from Canada is “simply false,” and nothing is off the table when it comes to potential Canadian trade retaliation, including export taxes.

The US doesn’t have easy alternatives to Canadian crude oil, uranium, potash and other critical minerals, Wilkinson said. And he warned that nothing is off the table when it comes to potential Canadian trade retaliation, including export taxes.
Most of the crudes that are produced in the United States are light sweet crudes. The refineries in the Midwest are set up for heavy crude, and they have no alternative to the use of Canadian resources — not that’s economic. Even the alternative that exists for some of the Gulf refineries for heavy crude, it’s Venezuela.
