Canada’s school bully

To the Editor,

Joe Biden may be just as bad as Donald Trump for Canada when it comes to implementing America First measures, including tariffs, jobs and industrial resources. We’ve endured it long before Trump’s presidency, with Republican and Democratic party administrations. For example, their tariffs on imports of our softwood lumber, regardless of the consistent independent (including international) trade-board rulings in Canada’s favour.

It’s as though our great neighbour south may always maintain such a sticking point, however unjustly, if only because they have the formidable weight.

Maybe we’re expected to get used to it, somewhat like the child stuck with the school bully whose concept of his/her fair share will always be three quarters of the pie.
