I realize there are significant difficulties to be ironed out, however if the situation with tariffs, imposed on us by the US, got too burdensome, we have the option of increasing our trade with China. They are already our second largest trading partner, and I believe have lately expressed an interest in increasing trade with Canada.
As an example, by eliminating tariffs between our countries, a BYD Seagull EV would cost us $ 14,600 Cdn, and solar panels would be 286% less expensive. Just think what that would do for our climate change policy.
At the same time, we would be in a position to sell them vast quantities of LNG to displace their coal, and our farmers would be able to make a decent profit in selling flax seed, canola oil, etc.
just a thought
