I guess one of the key questions is.
Last summer when Trump went after Aluminum the Canadian government enacted retaliatory tarrifs. There was no, we respect his decision, and we're moving on.
I would be interested in seeing the transcripts for the call between him and Biden tomorrow. If Trudeau brushes by Keystone, its going to be optically bad for him and he'll look inconsistent in terms of the whole, I'll never apologize for fighting for Canadian jobs line that he used with SNC.
This is going to be tricky, if he doesn't fight and just glosses by, its probably going to increase Western Alienation, especially after his fights for Steel, Aluminum and SNC jobs that directly effected Ontario and Quebec. He's also at risk of really pissing off the Indigenous investors who put nearly 800 million worth of investments.
Trudeau's in a tough spot, he's starting to take heat on the vaccinations procurement and on Keystone. Next weeks polling could be interesting.
