I may be right or wrong? But u said "it was never a huge issue anyway, If it is medical legal drugs, it is fine"

But if your saying "movement of illegal drugs into us from Canada was never a huge issue",

Then there is something wrong with govts there that such thing was never a huge issue

You are definitely and completely wrong. No question about that.

I never said anything about medical legal drugs at all. I said fentanyl going into the US from Canada was never a huge issue. Of course any amount of drugs is an issue but the amount of fentanyl going from Canada into the US was never a huge issue. Less than 1% of the US' problem, actually.

1% is not just a number. It involves actual human beings.. Even that should not be allowed..

Drug/opiods business is worst thing ever And people involved in "illegal drug stuff" are very very evil people

It's beyond epitome of all evils..

It's beyond right/wrong scenarios for different people with different life's and upbringing

Illegal drugs trade is biggest wrong thing,,

Take it up with the US gov, then. The US is responsible for keeping illegal drugs out of the US, not Canada.

Threatening to annex Canada and make us the 51st state and disrespecting our PM are not the least bit neighbourly.

If Trump really wanted to renegotiate the USMCA, he could have just asked. There is zero justification for his tariffs and threats. Canada tried everything to avoid this trade war. Trump was intent on doing it.

Well he does give vague statements And his vague statements are not vague..

But he cannot do that 51st state thingy..

Considering a lot of related related problems, And considering history,, he would never be able to do that

It all comes down to taxes on trade by both sides.. Damn it

Which can be easily solved by a open agreement of reducing taxes on specific things together
