Good today's conservatives are apologizing wimps bent on sending our jobs overseas and the ones they can't replacing them with third world labor. We have very few real Conservatives or Liberals left just Globalist puppets.

That's because the 'conservatives' you speak of are not real conservatives. Today's liberalism is now bringing in all the fringe radicals so they are totally screwed up. Just listen to some of these losers on u tube. Make you wonder how the US can survive. Safe spaces, transgender bathrooms, radical environmentalism, woman in combat, printing money...........

Isn't it something like 3,000,000 barrels a day that go to the US ?
The trade between the two countries has been built up over many decades and that could be turned off over night. So no. If it happens it's Trump and his supporters.

Canada imports over 600,000 barrels of oil every day. No way in hell this country should be importing oil from foreign sources.

Some people just don't get it.
Importing oil, implementing a Carbon Tax, raising minimum wage, exporting raw and importing refined, paying billions to shutter coal plants, announcing a Royalty Review and then waiting 9 months before announcing basically no change, increasing business tax during a recession, hiring anti-oil/pipeline staff, lack of a NEP, etc. If Trump actually does what our "leaders" should have done decades ago, and looks after business at home first, and it hurts Canada's economy, I won't be holding him responsible. That sounds kinda like blaming a team that beat you for winning because they were too good. This might be good for Canada though, our leader my thrive when given some drama.

Actually what he may be doing is breaking business agreements and putting people out of work.

The poem is funny. No doubt.
Honesty though this country, their country- our continent is divided. We need to stop slinging mud at each other and insults and get to work. There is a massive wedge that needs to be eliminated on both sides of the border both from the left and from the right. This kind of rhetoric and prose does nothing to help that.

That's true, but that still leaves a drop of 2.4 million barrels per day. That's a lot of jobs all thanks to Trump.

With the US discovery of their massive Midland basin oil reserve they'll need way less Canadian oil and will remain motivated to blockade our pipelines by all means necessary. Due to that find I foresee increased funding of Canadian environmental protest groups and similar cause-du-jour lemmings by such US & other big oil interests.
We need a leader who has a closet full of big-boy pants (or the female equivalent), our current marionette PM won't accomplish a thing for our economy. His track record to date speaks for itself.

I agree with you that the US won't need Canadian oil shortly but Steven Harper didn't get those pipelines built either
