Melanie Joly is proposing cutting off energy exports to the U.S. That both reckless and actually ignorant of Canada's own best interest because Line 5 and line 9 actually supply Ontario and Quebec but passes through Michigan.
Has she said this specifically? I had thought she had said "everything is on the table" which to me, is a far more useful negotiating tactic than saying the thing they need most, with the most leverage, is off the table. No?
