Canada is renegotiating NAFTA, the North American Free Trade Agreement that covers Canada, the United States and Mexico.
And at the same time, Canada is negotiating a trade deal with China.
Canada exported $392 billion worth of goods and services last year to the United States. A billion dollars a day.
Compare that to China. They bought $22 billion worth of stuff from us last year. That’s not peanuts.
But put it this way:
America pays your rent, car payments and groceries bill. China will buy you a coffee and a sandwich.
Now, Donald Trump hates NAFTA. We have a lot to lose.
What about China? They don’t buy our stuff now. They don’t respect property rights. You’d have to be nuts to invest there.
To cite just one example:
There are British Columbia winery owners facing life in Chinese prison for “alleged smuggling.” I think that’s code for he didn’t pay off the right corrupt officials.
Tonight, I’ll show you the approach Justin Trudeau has already taken towards these two trade deals.
(Hint: This is the same Liberal government that gave a billion dollars to Bombardier — in return for them moving their factory to Mexico. And our negotiator with Trump is Chrystia “The Crier” Freeland…)
NEXT: William Gairdner comes on to talk about his book, The Great Divide: Why Liberals and Conservative Will Never, Ever Agree.
THEN: International Attorney Jennifer Breedon and I discuss a topic dear to my heart, and important to so many Rebel viewers: The genocide of Christians by ISIS.
The good news is that the U.S. government has denounced this crime, so what happens now?
Finally: Your messages to me!
In an exclusive video shot last night, Scheer tells me that “anything that gives a platform to those types of obnoxious groups is certainly worth condemnation”. The same night, he told CBC News he would no longer grant interviews to The Rebel.”

Of course, spineless Scheer didn’t want to tarnish his “positive vision” marketing campaign.

The Rebel exodus suggests just one ‘ism’ separates far right from alt-right hate: Paradkar
The likes of Levant and other “white passing” Jewish people of the far right, are finally realizing white supremacy casts upon them the same contemptuous gaze as it does on Black and brown people.

Tension between The Rebel and conservatives erupts anew
Some critics say the Rebel’s coverage of the Charlottesville protests reflects its ongoing support for the far right.

Former Conservative leadership candidate MP Michael Chong says he will never appear on the outlet again

(Note: Scheer who wants to maintain his inclusive “positive vision” appeal, obligingly went along with John Ibbitson the next day; see below.)
Andrew Scheer won’t grant interviews to The Rebel under current ‘editorial direction’
Conservative leader latest to distance himself from Ezra Levant’s website

Bonfire of The Rebel
http://www.nationalobserver.com/2017/08/16/opinion/bonfire-rebel
The Rebel’s steady spiral downwards
It became the Canadian angle to a violent and deadly white nationalist protest. Is this the alt-right website’s breaking point
http://www.macleans.ca/news/canada/the-rebels-steady-spiral-downwards/
(Note: You mean like left-wing rag, Maclean’s?)
As noted from the above, sadly, the left has even succeeded in co-opting so-called ‘conservatives’ into join their sordid campaign. "When the going gets tough, the tough get going” and you find out who your real friends are. This episode has become a litmus test for unveiling who the spineless so-called ‘conservatives’ are.
Chrysta Freeland is a master negotiator. She will either use hugs or tears to sink us.
Hopefully McCallum guzzles some kind of cheap Chinese wood alcohol laced with their latest version of fentanyl. A fitting end to the walking martini.
MICHAEL J. GREENVILLE…..as usual, why are you here?
JAY KELLY….I’ll give you a pass today. Chronic use of meds can cause side effects. In your case you may have to up the dosage.
There are suggestions now that Jason Kessler, who planned rally is a leftist operative since he was part of Occupy Wall Street and supported Obama and Hillary Clinton until Nov 2016 when he started to organize this Unite The Right rally. So, this story may end much differently from the way it started.
“If some event was finally going to wipe the smirk off Rebel Media’s face, it could hardly have been more hideously appropriate than what happened in Virginia”
That says it all, “the smirk”. The MSM can’t stand the smirk because they’re afraid for their future jobs, and they see Ezra as apart from all that and therefore smirking at them (although he isn’t) and they can’t stand it. They can’t wait to see him fail. They’re practically jumping up and down in anticipation.
So, let’s hope that Ezra takes what steps he needs to, to right the ship so to speak. If not, we will have lost the only news site that I know of besides Breitbart where you can freely express yourself.
Get new clients.
Bill Elder you think Andrew even realizes that Justin has already screwed up in the deals you mentioned? Yeah i know, NOT A CHANCE.
"
No, I was unaware, but the internet translates things that exist only in your head very poorly.
No. - There’s no ‘botching’ involved, the little pissant traitor has every intention of selling out Canada and Canadians to his Globalist masters. He’s done nothing but sell us out since before the the October 19 fiasco of 2015. Just like his degenerate commie old man – Pierre, or Fidel, or a Stone or who knows for sure who sired the useless little freak!
Even assassinating the criminal, Canada-hating Justin wouldn’t be effective – satisfying, but not effective – because these Globalist hand puppets are a dime-a-dozen…
Chrétien is behind the China deal he and his brother are big time in China .
Jay you and your Liberal clown couldn’t run a lemonade stand without screwing it up .
Liza Rosie and Drew Wakariuk continue to cling on, as though the anti-Jewish language today is different from the hatred of the 1940’s.
Ezra Levant is willing to toss the cards in the air, and deny Canada’s negotiating skills. ,
Bill Elder, when it’s 20 below, it’s damn cold, when it gets to thirty, it doesn’t feel much colder to me. Cold is cold. We’re already circling the toilet, I don’t think the actual flush could feel any worse than it already does. I know it will get worse, but how much colder can cold feel? The sooner Trump gives the begged for slap Canada deserves the better. Maybe Canadians will start to wake up to the disaster Trudeau has led us into.
We are soooo screwed! A pivotal point in vital US trade relations and we have a quisling moron with a chub on for Chicom hegemonic mercantilism at the helm- what could possibly go wrong.
He already blew a multi billion grain deal with the Chicoms and now a LPG supply contract looks to be defaulted, sure why not antagonize trade relations with our oldest/largest trade partner to role-play as an eco warrior princeling – don’t forget to wear your earth first socks to the NAFTA collapse party Justin..
Good to see Bill Gairdner is still railing against the beast in Liberal drag.
