But overall it shows that we need to hasten the reduction in replying on exports to the US. We need to diversify.

Too bad all those pipelines were cancelled in 2016 and 2017 by the current Liberal government, too bad Japan just announced a $1T deal with the US (instead of us) for energy exports, there are many more "too bad" scenarios I can list

There is no trade war that we can win with the US - if they wanted to, and it looks like Trump wants to, they can plunge our country in a depression (forget recession) so deep that Argentina (prior to Milei saving them) would look like a powerhouse compared to us

I don't think people realize our dependence on the US, sure they depend on us as well but at a MUCH MUCH lower level

You build pipelines and you continue to heat up the planet so that it becomes uninhabitable. No thank you.
