Detailed critique of Trump's trade policy and USMCA agreement violations with analytical reasoning.

I'm sick and tired of this false right wing narrative that the Trudeau Lib party let in all the Indians. I lived in Brampton until 2005 and white flight started well before that. It's been called Bramledesh for longer than I can remember. Trudeau wasn't PM until 2016.
Challenges the narrative that Trudeau's government caused demographic change, citing historical timeline and earlier demographic shifts.

The U.S. has zero credibility with it's historical allies right now. No country or it's leadership can take the U.S. at it's word in any treaties or trade deals with Donald Trump at the helm. His word is completely useless. It is pointless to enter into any kind of an agreement with the U.S. under the current administration.
Critique of U.S. credibility and Trump administration's approach to international agreements and alliances.
