I would be losing my mind if I were living in the US though. They have managed to elect (almost by accident--he lost the popular vote by 3 million votes) an utterly incompetent nincompoop to the highest office in their land, and he has responded by nominating the motleyest crew of crazies, loons, deliberate ignoramuses and uninformed ideologues to occupy the key cabinet posts in his White House.

Should make for an interesting 4 years. They are going to MISS Obama...
For all the dumb things Trump says and does, he rarely says anything directly about Canada. I don't think he minds us, so I doubt much changes. He might screw around with NAFTA, but in general, trade will continue as is (Mexico will be affected more I think). Plus, he does have a lot of investments in Canada.

Any effect on us, I think will be collateral damage on his foreign policy in general, but not necessarily directed at us.
