Query: I don't think we're toast at all. Trudeau is a lot tougher than Trump (younger, stronger, fitter and a better team player).

Good leadership means working well with others - not spouting at the mouth with threats and empty bombast. The Canadian/US trade relationship is very complex and intertwined - it's not just black and white. And no one can afford to damage it - on either side. There's too much at stake.

Back in the eighties and nineties I represented Canada in some agriculture trade deals, and I learned that the best way to deal with the Americans is to stand up to them, and give as good (or better) than you get. They'll actually respect you for it and try to become your friend. Then you get to control the debate and get the better deal.

It's how you treat any bully and win. Ask anyone.
