Mango's latest triumph that proves how GREAT he is.


Mango is going to be growing about what a great deal he got for America with Canada.

Don't buy into it.

The Canadian negotiators are not idiots.
They knew full well that Mango was under the gun to get this thing done before the mid-terms, so the Canadians dragged it out as long as possible to increase the pressure on the US negotiators.

They didn't give up what the US really wanted, which was elimination of third party dispute resolution (Mexico gave it up) and getting rid of the Canadian production quota system for chicken, eggs, and dairy products. The Canadian producers are a little nervous because they don't really know how this is going to play out.

Canada gave a bit on import restrictions for dairy, but they did that for Europe some time ago, and I don't see European products flooding the market here.

Time well tell, but I don't see a lot changing in the way Canada and the US does business.
