Trump warned he will impose additional tariffs on the European Union and Canada if they band together to “do economic harm” against the United States.

Get @#$%ed, Trump. Good read. Short but detailed about how partnered we are already and what our next priorities should be

    The EU has said it’s never going to happen either.

    When? I keep hearing this but I’m pretty sure no such statement has been made.

    A country in North America joining another continent?? Is silly.

    A little, yes.

    Having randos in Brussels make decisions for Canada?? No thank you.

    So, any level of integration is going to involve that. IIRC Even now we have to respect EU heritage foods designations as part of CETA.

      Multiple times. And if you read the EU charter, membership is only open to countries in Europe. The charter would have to be changed.
