I definitely find it hilarious how intensely the EU and Canada are diplomatically flirting with each other. I'm all for it, but let's hurry up and set up some more dates and maybe start some more conversation of our future.

The fact that it took so long is stupid.

The first time Putin tried to start playing oil and gas prices in Europe, the EU should have paid for Energy East pipelines and started buying stuff from Canada.

Not really, everyone is acting like Canada has something to sell EU they already don't make.

Oil, gas, minerals, potash.

We played critical parts in NASA robotics and in US stealth tech.

Hell, Israel just bought one of the best robot sub companies from being Canadian.

Well, this summit seems to be a big "step one," and they seem to have a pretty aggressive timeline over the next year. I guess we'll see.

it's all just a veiled threat to get CUSMA signed. Once that happens, Carney will drop EU like Justin Trudeau's wife dropped him.

You mean the free trade treaty that trump negotiated and is in current violation of?
