Maybe, just maybe, the best negotiating strategy for Canada is to do nothing, apart from diplomacy. That is, to just sit quietly, plan for the worst, and let Trump suffer the consequences of his actions. Eventually world condemnation, the backlash from his own people, will put him in his place. That's not to say, there won't be a lot of suffering along the way.
