Lets say our tariffs drop like Mexico's did this morning. I don't want us to go back to the Canadian norm and rely heavily on the United States for everything. This should be the start of forward thinking as Canadians. The start of the golden era, I want to call it the maple era.
But something tells me, and its my fear as a Canadian, that if a deal pops up after Trudeau and Trumps talk today, that passive Canadian mentality will come back. Canadians will blow a sigh of relief and we will go back into our old ways of complacency. This is our wake up call. Time to pick up the phone and respond.
