Why are we doing this again? The current administration established the existing trade deal back during the first term and now they are unhappy with it?

All Canada has to do is ban export potash to the US, that will end this crap almost instantly.

Time to shut down the oil exports. That'll instantly get rid of the trade deficit that Trump keeps complaining about. That's what he wants, isn't it?

> The dairy ban covers whey protein, invert molasses, cane molasses and non-alcoholic beer, per notices on the White House's website. I think the authors of this ban are a little confused about what dairy is.

Motorcycles, not motor vehicles. Lots of cars and trucks go both ways across the border. Motorcycles is a lot smaller trade, mostly done by Bombardier: those three wheeles bikes popular with seniors. Trump hates Bombardier, they had the temerity to compete with Boeing.
