That other echo was saying Trump is trying to rebuild the USA in the most major way since 1933 I think it was. I think that in the long run things will revert back to relatively free trade since we are, to each other, the safest and most reliable countries to deal with in both directions. I mean Canada, by population, is a relatively small country yet you have always done a Huge percentage of business with us and our economies are virtually locked together. Because you are bigger you can hurt us more than we can hurt you but losing our business will not help your country. What we supply can not be so easily replaced, and vice versa. RM>> No, it doesn't look like there are any truly Canadian car companies. On that subject, I never gave much thought to the numbers but we apparently build over 2 million cars a year so we may not really need our own brand of cars.. As for moving our 'American' car making to the USA, it will be a lot easier for us to retool a plant to build cars for someone else than for you guys to build new plants to replace what we supply. --- * SLMR Rob * Computers make very fast, very accurate mistakes * Origin: capitolcityonline.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/HTTP (1:2320/105) .
