Hey there, Scott.  
Love your reason for always supporting Trump. Hadn't thought of that. Gotta ask: how do you think it's working?

"This outcome if the deal is canceled (sic) is good..."  What outcome would that be, Scott?  Little confused by that.  Should the deal be cancelled?  I'd be interested to know why, because I believe it still has yet to be ratified. THEN it must be introduced into the House.

"...reflect badly on Canadians..."  Or maybe not. If our PM holds the proposed deal in contempt (who knows for sure?) then, his "no show" might cut through the rhetoric really effectively. It appears the others missed him, wanted him there. If so, that's good, that clears the air on "does anybody care about Canada?" 

There is absolutely no proof that the "no show" means PM wants the deal "cancelled."  Lots of reasons suggested for the "no show"--read these comments! 

If we can't, in fact, compete with low-wage Asians, well, maybe we can sell them our natural resources anyway.
