I did not save my reply to "david mccaig" and several others before quitting for the night but I do recall making one to him specifically. I believe I wrote something about Free Speech being barred in a domain controlled by the Crown but I honestly can't recall it was late and I posted a lot of comments before quitting for the night. Usually I save as I post but I was tired and wanted to get up again before 4 in the morning. in order to insert last words. I overslept and when I refreshed the CBC web pages in the morning a lot of comments went "POOF" I was not surprised to see that my replies were already gone but there was no "Content Disabled" notices. It and several other comments on the page about Trudeau being a hypocrite do not show up in my comments tally because CBC has blocked my account again. Whereas my ID is shut down for a week or so I can't review anything that was blocked. So below are the records I did save before CBC had shown me their nasty arse again and compelled to use my new ID once again.

Pompeo shrugs off North Korea's 'gangster' rebuke, cites progress

HMMM
"Despite what he described as progress, Pompeo said the results so far did not warrant any easing of sanctions, which he said would be enforced "with vigour" until North Korea follows through with denuclearization.
After his historic summit with Kim Jong-un in Singapore last month, U.S. President Donald Trump declared the North was no longer a threat and would hand over the remains of American soldiers. "
Methinks if Trudeau The Younger and his minions were blessed with common sense they would ignore Trump and his buddies and become the first of the so called "Free World" to finally end the war with North Korea. After all Canadian troops fought and died in that conflict too. I don't know if all off our dead have been repatriated but I do know our veterans and their fallen brothers in arms were no less of a patriot to Canada than the Yankees were to the USA or the North Korean soldiers were to their country. Nobody should deny that all the soldiers were all just following orders given to them by long dead politicians long before Kim Jong-un and most of us were even born. I suspect many people worldwide would agree its High Time to end the nonsense instead merely watching Trump make another deal or prolong the dispute in order to benefit his corporate pals N'esy Pas?

In the real world, North
Korea gave Trump its middle finger by brazen nuclear tests culminating
in intercontinental capability, and can now negotiate from a position of
strength.
In Trumpland, the Donald's intimidating gravitas bullied Kim Jong-un to the negotiating table.
In the real world, Obama convincing Iran to denuclearization was bitterly denounced by Trump as the "worst deal in history."
In Trumpland, the Donald convincing North Korea to do the same is deliriously paraded as a historic victory.
In Trumpland's topsy turvy world, up is down, facts become immaterial and wishes turn true. It is bigly fun.

The writer should have
pointed out that N Korea and the US entered these negotiations with very
different visions of how they would play out. Experienced observers
have been anxiously pointing out the discrepancies and the dangers they
contain, but the Trump administration has ignored them and ploughed
ahead as though it and N Korea were roughly on the same page after
Trump's reality TV "summit" with Kim.
This is pure fantasy on the part of the Trump White House.
In a plan revealed by John Bolton a week or so ago, the US expects N Korea to disclose all its nuclear, biological and chemical weapons sites and all its missile testing sites. The US will then dismantle all of the sites and will only then grant N Korea relief from sanctions. This is tantamount to unconditional surrender to the US by N Korea.
By very sharp contrast, N Korea wants a gradual, something-for-something process where each step it takes in reducing (it never said "eliminating") its nuclear (only) weapons capability is matched by a measure of sanctions relief.
The embarrassment now raining on Pompeo is the entirely predictable result of the inevitable collision between the Trump fantasy and the N Korea reality.

Has it not occurred to you that Trump serves the purpose of the Deep State?
On June 29th, NBC reported that "unnamed" US intelligence officials, advised that Pyongyang is increasing enrichment of uranium for nuclear fuel at secret sites. Does this not sound like MSM prestituting itself to refute Trump’s claim that DPRK is no longer a nuclear threat?
Does it not occur to you that the Deep State does not want improved relations with North Korea.?
Consider: the DPRK has never attacked another country. In June 1950, its forces responded to a US-orchestrated S. Korean aggression - not vice versa.
N. Korea continues work at the Yongbyon Facility, but I have not seen verification by ANY western source that this work continued after the June 12 Kim/Trump summit.
All N. Korea wants is: a formal end to the 1950s war, lifting of unacceptably harsh sanctions, and its sovereign independence respected.
Too much to ask?
Trump thought not.
Evidently Pompeo as an American, neocon extremist making geopolitical policy - for whom?

believe. Considering what we and the rest of the world are dealing with
coming out of the U.S., things could be much worse.

Josephine where did you hear this 'leftest BS' , the billionaires control all the news media, all TV and the AM radio news and talk channels , they control almost all the print media, and billionaires don't vote for leftest liberals to raise their taxes. so exactly where did you hear this ,at Russia's Pravda, even at its height back in the Soviet times it only reached a 100,000 people, so again where did you hear all this left wing gibberish as you like to call it.

I was not surprised t see that was already gone when I refreshed the webpage but there was no "Content Disabled" notice. It and several other comments do not show up in my comments tally either because CBC has blocked my account again.

Joe Godin
With the sentiment that most Canadians have for the US (except the Canadians of convenience called 'snowbirds'), Canadian companies have a window of opportunity.
THAT window being to restart some manufacturing in Canada, eliminating the silly and counter-productive Canadian penchant of selling traw materials for $100/tonne and buying back the finished goods at $1,000/tonne.
If (some) Canadian companies rise to the occasion and put out required products, of the same quality, at a competitive price, they WILL be rewarded both short- and long-term. But that's a BIG 'if', particularly when combined with the usual customer disservice we have to put up with!
If we wish to take economic advantage, ALL Canadians have to work together, from the manufacturing side, to the marketing side, to the retail personnel side, to the consumer side - and that includes YOU Canadians of convenience, the snowbirds!

Like Trump, you're unclear on the concept of what trade is meant to accomplish. It's a zero sum game.
The negative balance of exports to imports is made up by the price benefit to American consumers from buying imported products. And since the US is basically at full employment, importing more than they export is not hurting their job market.
If Trump goes ahead with his tariffs on cars it's expected to add about $2000. to the price of a vehicle. You don't think that will hurt American consumers?

@David Amos FYI

Tall tale-telling politicos, take heed: You could soon find your
claims put through the truth grinder by the folks at FactsCan, a newly
launched website that aims to provide an independent, non-partisan
fact-checking service during the upcoming federal election.
■FactsCan website
According to co-founder Dana Wagner, who also works as a researcher at
Ryerson University in Toronto, the team behind the site wants to help
voters "separate out the truth from spin, distortion, omission, error
and lies."
"Our goal is to enable Canadians to critically engage in
political-speak, and to encourage politicians to be honest and
accurate with their words," she told CBC News via email.
Unlike many countries, she noted, Canada does not have a major
fact-checking outlet — and FactsCan is hoping to change that before
the next election.« less

their pals in the other CROWN Corp known as the RCMP arrest me. Page
14 of this old pdf file of mine is the reason why.

I must Say I am rather impressed at CBC's sudden fit of Integrity to
allow my posts to stand the test of time for a few hours at least. (:
Rest assured that I have been saving digital snapshots just in case
they delete and block me as usual :)
In return here is an old scoop about CTV that CBC and everybody else
and his dog has been ignoring for 11 very long years after I ran in
the election of the 38th Parliament against the aptly named lawyer Rob
Moore.

Mr. Amos, I confirm that I have received your documentation. There is
no need to send us a hard copy. As you have said yourself, the
documentation is very voluminous and after 3 days, we are still in the
process of printing it. I have asked one of my lawyers to review it

Anybody bother to notice I am the only person posting here with a real
name and it is the same name that is on the ballot in Fundy Royal?
Do ya think the lawyer Rob Moore "The True Conservative" or any of the
others would dare to debate me in writing with their true name within
a website funded by the taxpayer and controlled by questionable public
servants? How about outside the CROWN"s domain within the Yankee
website called Twitter? That is where I play very serious Political
Hard Ball. See for yourself or ask Rob Moore's hero Stevey Boy Harper
if I am a liar or not.

I may be a little confused here, Is there not 5 candidates in this
Riding.. Humm. Seems you forgot the Independent candidate, David Amos
is running, heard him on the radio and has a u tube following, Funny
how u tube has become become more accurate than the CBC. Shame on you,
CBC. Lets just see if you will post this comment,,,
David Amos
@tony forward For the record CBC is well aware that I am the fifth
candidate. Hance Colburne of CBC moderated the debate in Hampton on
Oct 7th one before CBC posted on their website on Oct 14th his
interview with Rob Moore on CBC airwaves
https://www.youtube.com/watch?
David Amos
BTW Rob Moore and I know the truth about Randy Quaid's questionable
arrests in Canada and the USA. More importantly so does Randy I know
that for a fact.
http://www.cbc.ca/news/arts/
"I never worried about being found guilty or any of that for any of
these charges because I know the truth, and I know the facts are going
to come out at some point, and today was a good sign of that," Randy
Quaid said
http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/
"Quaid and his wife Evi, a Canadian citizen, have been living in
Montreal since February 2013."
"Robert Gervais, an official with the Immigration and Refugee Board,
confirmed in an email to CBC News that a detention review hearing for
Quaid is scheduled for Thursday afternoon.
But the reason for the actor's arrest is unclear.
Quaid, 64, was detained Tuesday morning after attending a regular
check-in with CBSA officials in downtown Montreal.
Quaid's lawyer, Mark Gruszczynski, declined to shed light on the
affair or to reveal the reason for Quaid's arrest."

It appears that the CROWN Corp known as CBC has failed its MANDATE
once again and acted in a very partisan fashion in ignoring my name on
the ballot. Correct? The real question is will the CROWN even allow
this comment to be posted?
David Amos
@David Amos FYI
http://www.cbc.ca/news/
Tall tale-telling politicos, take heed: You could soon find your
claims put through the truth grinder by the folks at FactsCan, a newly
launched website that aims to provide an independent, non-partisan
fact-checking service during the upcoming federal election.
■FactsCan website
According to co-founder Dana Wagner, who also works as a researcher at
Ryerson University in Toronto, the team behind the site wants to help
voters "separate out the truth from spin, distortion, omission, error
and lies."
"Our goal is to enable Canadians to critically engage in
political-speak, and to encourage politicians to be honest and
accurate with their words," she told CBC News via email.
Unlike many countries, she noted, Canada does not have a major
fact-checking outlet — and FactsCan is hoping to change that before
the next election.« less

CBC writes lots about people who BS a lot then don't bother to put

Anybody bother to notice I am the only person posting here with a real
name and it is the same name that is on the ballot in Fundy Royal?
Do ya think the lawyer Rob Moore "The True Conservative" or any of the
others would dare to debate me in writing with their true name within
a website funded by the taxpayer and controlled by questionable public
servants? How about outside the CROWN"s domain within the Yankee

@tony forward For the record CBC is well aware that I am the fifth

BTW Rob Moore and I know the truth about Randy Quaid's questionable
arrests in Canada and the USA. More importantly so does Randy I know
that for a fact.
http://www.cbc.ca/news/arts/
"I never worried about being found guilty or any of that for any of
these charges because I know the truth, and I know the facts are going
to come out at some point, and today was a good sign of that," Randy
Quaid said
http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/
"Quaid and his wife Evi, a Canadian citizen, have been living in
Montreal since February 2013."
"Robert Gervais, an official with the Immigration and Refugee Board,
confirmed in an email to CBC News that a detention review hearing for
Quaid is scheduled for Thursday afternoon.
But the reason for the actor's arrest is unclear.
Quaid, 64, was detained Tuesday morning after attending a regular

Pompeo shrugs off North Korea's 'gangster' rebuke, cites progress
U.S. Secretary of State says he had 'detailed and substantive discussion' with officials in Pyongyang
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Sunday brushed aside North Korea's accusation of "gangster-like" denuclearization demands. Pompeo maintained that his third visit to the country had produced results but also vowed that sanctions would remain until Pyongyang follows through on North Korean leader Kim Jong-un's pledge to get rid of his atomic weapons.
Pompeo downplayed a harshly critical North Korean statement after the talks in which the country's foreign ministry bashed hopes for a quick deal and attacked the U.S. for making unreasonable and extortionate demands aimed at forcing it to abandon nuclear weapons. The statement was sure to fuel growing skepticism in the U.S. and elsewhere over how serious Kim is about giving up his nuclear arsenal.
"If those requests were gangster-like, the world is a gangster," Pompeo said, noting that numerous UN Security Council resolutions have demanded that the North rid itself of nuclear weapons and end its ballistic missile program. "People are going to make certain comments after meetings. If I paid attention to the press, I'd go nuts and I refuse to do that."
Speaking after meeting with his Japanese and South Korean counterparts in Tokyo, Pompeo said his two days of talks in Pyongyang had been productive and conducted in good faith. But following the stinging commentary from the North, he allowed that the goal of denuclearization would be difficult and that much work remains.
"The road ahead will be difficult and challenging and we know critics will try to minimize the work that we have achieved," he said. He added that his two days of talks with senior North Korean officials had "made progress," and included a "detailed and substantive discussion about the next steps toward a fully verified and complete denuclearization."
Those include the formation of working group to determine exactly how North Korea's denuclearization will be verified and a Thursday meeting with Pentagon officials to discuss the return of remains of Americans soldiers killed during the Korean War.
Pompeo sought to dispel suggestions that the Trump administration has backed down from demanding the complete, verifiable and irreversible dismantlement of the North's nuclear weapons. He said North Korea understood that denuclearization must be "fully verified" and "final."
North balks at written pledge
South Korean Foreign Minister Kang Kyung-wha said that North Korea had balked at a written pledge for "complete, verifiable and irreversible denuclearization" for historical reasons but stressed that the goal remained the same whether or not that exact phrase was used. Fully verified, final denuclearization "isn't any softer in stating our shared goal of complete denuclearization," she said.
Despite what he described as progress, Pompeo said the results so far did not warrant any easing of sanctions, which he said would be enforced "with vigour" until North Korea follows through with denuclearization.
After his historic summit with Kim Jong-un in Singapore last month, U.S. President Donald Trump declared the North was no longer a threat and would hand over the remains of American soldiers. Yet three weeks later, the two sides were still divided on all the issues, including exactly what denuclearization means and how it might be verified. The promised remains have yet to be delivered.
And, just hours after Pompeo arrived in Tokyo from Pyongyang on Saturday, the North blasted the talks, saying they had been "regrettable."
Outcome of talks 'very concerning'
In a statement carried by the North's official Korean Central News Agency, the foreign ministry said the outcome of Pompeo's talks with senior official Kim Yong-chol was "very concerning" because it has led to a "dangerous phase that might rattle our willingness for denuclearization that had been firm."
"We had expected that the U.S. side would offer constructive measures that would help build trust based on the spirit of the leaders' summit ... we were also thinking about providing reciprocal measures," it said. "However, the attitude and stance the United States showed in the first high-level meeting (between the countries) was no doubt regrettable. Our expectations and hopes were so naive it could be called foolish."
It said the North had raised the issue of formally ending the Korean War, which concluded with an armistice and not a peace treaty, but the U.S. came up with a variety of "conditions and excuses" to delay a declaration. It downplayed the significance of the United States suspending its military exercises with South Korea, something trumpeted by Trump after the summit as a success, by saying it made a larger concession by blowing up the tunnels at a nuclear test site.
In criticizing the talks with Pompeo, however, it carefully avoided attacking Trump personally, saying "we wholly maintain our trust toward President Trump," but stressed that Washington must not allow "headwinds" against the "wills of the leaders."

Trade war holds back Canadian stocks in first half, but tide could be turning
Some strategists expect the Canadian stock market to rise more this year than it did in 2017
· CBC News · Posted: Jul 08, 2018 4:00 AM ET
Canada's stock market, like so many Canadian industries, was left shaken as traders grappled with the prospect of a full-blown trade war with the United States in the first half of 2018.
Canadian equities started the year down, dragged lower by volatility that rocked U.S. markets in the first quarter. But they have roared back to life in the past three months.
Brian Belski, chief investment strategist at BMO Capital Markets, is betting on positive developments from NAFTA negotiations, pipeline approvals and a softening housing market to ultimately drive the TSX higher in 2018.
"We continue to believe the pessimism [in Canada] is misplaced and investors should expect another year of positive stock market performance, despite all the concerns about domestic growth, NAFTA, oil prices, and weak gold prices," Belski said in a note to investors.
"Ultimately, Canada's longer-term fortunes are likely to mirror the accelerating growth in the U.S."
The U.S. economy is expected to grow 2.8 per cent this year, according to U.S. Federal Reserve, which is 0.5 percentage points higher than its growth last year. In comparison, the Bank of Canada forecasts the Canadian economy will grow two per cent this year. It expanded by three per cent in 2017.
Bigger gains than last year?
Belski forecasts that the TSX index will jump more than eight per cent in the second half of the year, hitting a target of 17,600 points. That prediction puts the index's gain for this year at more than eight per cent — higher than six per cent rise it saw in 2017.
Similarly, Ian de Verteuil, the head portfolio strategist at CIBC World Markets, is expecting a nearly five per cent gain on the TSX this year — even though trade disruptions remain a significant risk to his investment strategy.
"Under all the rhetoric, there is some progress on autos and the China relationship, and even a renegotiated NAFTA is not too difficult to envisage. To be clear though, progress will not be in a straight line."
Meanwhile, Kurt Reiman, chief investment strategist at BlackRock Canada, said he didn't think matching last year's performance of a six per cent gain is a high hurdle for the TSX this year, especially if the momentum in the energy sector remains strong.
Sadiq Adatia, chief investment officer at Sun Life Global Investments, thinks the Canadian market will continue to trade without making any significant gains in the second half of the year.
He predicts a target range of 16,000 to 16,250 points for the TSX in 2018.
Problem with consumers
Given Canada's lacklustre performance in comparison to other developed countries, many people have realized that other markets may not carrying the same risks this country is facing, Adatia said. He cited an overheated real estate market, high consumer debt and NAFTA.
"We also cannot forget that the Bank of Canada has also raised interest rates three times and going on to four, which should slow down consumer spending going forward," he said.
The Bank of Canada is widely expected to raise interest rates again next week after making three hikes since July of last year.
Aggressive on energy
However, the strategists said that other sectors — such as energy and technology — should hold up well on the TSX for the rest of this year.
Belski is betting big on the energy sector, which was a key driver of Canadian equities in the second quarter. He's upgraded his overweight positioning on the sector.
"We believe Canada is poised to outperform the second half as oil prices reset a new trading range (still a tight range, but higher) and housing prices firm," he said in an interview.
Reiman, however, is taking a more cautious approach. He sees greater global economic uncertainty in the second half of the year and tighter financial conditions, such as higher interest rates.
"We recommend taking some risk out of equities, specifically our allocation to Japanese and European stocks where upside appears more limited, and investing the proceeds in short-duration fixed income [such as bonds]," Reiman said.

North Korea says Pompeo made 'gangster-like' demands but he calls talks 'productive'
U.S. Secretary of State says Pyongyang officials commit to new discussions on denuclearization
High-level talks between the United States and North Korea appeared to hit a snag on Saturday as Pyongyang said a visit by U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo had been "regrettable" and accused Washington of making "gangster-like" demands to pressure the country into abandoning its nuclear weapons.
The statement from the North came just hours after Pompeo wrapped up two days of talks with senior North Korean officials without meeting North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, but with commitments for new discussions on denuclearization and the repatriation of the remains of American soldiers killed during the Korean War.
While Pompeo offered a relatively positive assessment of his meetings, North Korea's Foreign Ministry said in a statement that the U.S. betrayed the spirit of last month's summit between U.S. President Donald Trump and Kim by making "unilateral and gangster-like" demands on "CVID," or the complete, verifiable and irreversible denuclearization of North Korea.
"We had expected that the U.S. side would offer constructive measures that would help build trust based on the spirit of the leaders' summit ... we were also thinking about providing reciprocal measures," an unnamed spokesperson of Pyongyang's Foreign Ministry said in a statement carried by the North's official Korean Central News Agency.
"However, the attitude and stance the United States showed in the first high-level meeting [between the countries] was no doubt regrettable," the spokesperson said.
However, the spokesperson said, the United States came up with a variety of "conditions and excuses" to delay a declaration on ending the war. The spokesperson also downplayed the significance of the United States suspending its military exercises with South Korea, saying the North made a larger concession by blowing up the tunnels at its nuclear test site.
In criticizing the talks with Pompeo, however, the North carefully avoided attacking Trump, saying "we wholly maintain our trust toward President Trump," but also that Washington must not allow "headwinds" against the "wills of the leaders."
In comments to reporters before leaving Pyongyang, Pompeo said his conversations with senior North Korean official Kim Yong Chol had been "productive," conducted "in good faith" and that "a great deal of progress" had been made in some areas. He stressed that "there's still more work to be done" in other areas, much of which would be done by working groups that the two sides have set up to deal with specific issues.
Pompeo said a Pentagon team would be meeting with North Korean officials on or about July 12 at the border between North and South Korea to discuss the repatriation of remains and that working level talks would be held soon on the destruction of North Korea's missile engine testing facility.
In the days following his historic June 12 summit with Kim Jong-un in Singapore, Trump had announced that the return of the remains and the destruction of the missile facility had been completed or were in progress.
Pompeo, however, said that more talks were needed on both.
"We now have a meeting set up for July 12 — it could move by one day or two — where there will be discussions between the folks responsible for the repatriation of remains. [It] will take place at the border and that process will begin to develop over the days that follow," he said as he boarded his plane for Tokyo.
On
the destruction of the missile engine plant, Pompeo said, "We talked
about what the modalities would look like for the destruction of that
facility as well, and some progress there as well, and then we have laid
out a path for further negotiation at the working level so the two
teams can get together and continue these discussions."Earlier, Pompeo and Kim Yong-chol both said they needed clarity on the parameters of an agreement to denuclearize the Korean Peninsula that Trump and Kim Jong-un had agreed to in Singapore. The trip was Pompeo's third to Pyongyang since April and his first since the summit.
Unlike his previous visits, which have been one-day affairs during which he has met with Kim Jong-un, Pompeo spent the night at a government guesthouse in Pyongyang and did not see the North Korean leader, although U.S. officials had suggested such a meeting was expected. State Department spokesperson Heather Nauert said no meeting with Kim had been planned.
As they began their talks on Saturday, Kim Yong-chol alluded to the fact that Pompeo and his delegation had stayed overnight in Pyongyang.
"We did have very serious discussions on very important matters yesterday," Kim said. "So, thinking about those discussions you might have not slept well last night."
Pompeo, who spoke with Trump, national security adviser John Bolton and White House chief of staff John Kelly by secure phone before starting Saturday's session, replied that he "slept just fine." He added that the Trump administration was committed to reaching a deal under which North Korea would denuclearize and realize economic benefits in return.
Kim later said "there are things that I have to clarify" to which Pompeo responded that "there are things that I have to clarify as well."
Pompeo and Kim met for nearly three hours Friday and then had dinner amid growing skepticism over how serious Kim Jong-un is about giving up his nuclear arsenal and translating the upbeat rhetoric following his summit with Trump into concrete action.
Why Trump's trade war makes sense — if you're Trump
If the U.S. escalates its trade war, the rest of the world, starting with Canada, will be collateral damage
If one word could sum up how
many Canadians feel about the Trump-shaped piano dangling over the
country's economy, it would likely be "disbelief."
Sure, we know all about America First, Rust Belt jobs and Canadian dairy subsidies, but certainly, even U.S. President Donald Trump knows how much trade has helped to make Americans rich, many Canadians say to themselves.
The country's prosperity is so undeniable that it's easy, reasonable even, for Canadians to brush off Trump's anti-trade jeremiads as equal parts bluster, negotiating tactics and base-galvanizing political rhetoric.
Even with trade barriers now going up between U.S. and China, it remains hard to imagine that Trump would blow up the global trading system given how much U.S. workers would suffer, right?
Maybe not.
The national security reasoning the Trump administration initially used to justify steel and aluminum tariffs was widely seen as a pretext that allowed the White House to bypass Congress and use executive power to regulate trade and charge unilaterally down the path of protectionism.
Even more troubling for Canada's economic fortunes, though, would be if that justification were sincere. In that light, Trump's reliance on Peter Navarro, an economist best known for his radical views on China, as one of his top trade advisers is an ominous sign.
Peter
Navarro's radical views on China are no longer on the fringes of
economic thought now that he has the ear of the U.S. president. (Andrew Harnik/Associated Press)
That's
in part because Navarro is one of the few economic advisers who
supports the protectionist trade policies Trump and his commerce
secretary, Wilbur Ross, are advocating, says Dan Ciuriak, a former
deputy chief economist in Canada's Department of Foreign Affairs and now
the head of his own consulting firm.
"There's not a single trade economist who agrees that what they're saying even makes sense, apart from Peter Navarro," Ciuriak said.
A professor at the University of California, Irvine, the 68-year-old, Harvard-educated Navarro wasn't always fixated on China. Early in his career, he believed in free trade and ran for mayor of San Diego as a Democrat.
His three books on the subject paint a dark picture of a world in which the U.S. and China are hurtling toward a reckoning, and not just on trade.
In the trailer for the documentary version of Navarro's second book, Death by China, a talking head opines, "China is the only major nation in the world that is preparing to kill Americans."
Until recently, such anti-China sentiment only existed far beyond the periphery of policy discussions.
In the U.S., trade policy has often taken a back seat to foreign policy. When viewed through Navarro's theories, moves such as saddling Canada and the European Union with auto tariffs, pulling out of NAFTA and the World Trade Organization, as Trump has threatened to do in the past, and opening up a trade war with China start to make sense.
Similarly, a president who sees China as a menace lurking around every corner wouldn't want the U.S. to rely on any foreign country for its economic or military needs.
While economists see steel and aluminum tariffs as a tax on U.S. consumers that makes everything from beer cans to F-150s more expensive, but when imports are seen as a national security threat, that cost appears necessary in order to allow the industrial capabilities thought to be critical to the country's defence to be repatriated.
The blueprint for Trump's retreat into Fortress America is becoming more visible. Following through on his threats to hit China with $500 billion in tariffs would effectively erect a trade wall across the Pacific. Auto tariffs would do the same across the Atlantic while abandoning NAFTA would sever economic ties with the rest of North America.

trade protectionism is already hitting exporters, such as Harley
Davidson, which is moving a factory offshore to avoid retaliatory EU
tariffs on U.S. goods. (Pablo Martinez Monsivais/Associated Press)
If
the Trump administration keeps traveling this road, overseas markets
are likely to dry up, and U.S. exporters will be the ones to take the
early hits, as the case of Harley Davidson moving some of its production offshore has already shown.
Big U.S. multinational companies are also likely to suffer. Apple, for one, must already be shuddering at the thought of losing access to China, the world's biggest smartphone market.
An attempt to reshape the U.S. economy would run the risk of undoing the benefits of trade. That could result in a lower standard of living for Americans and potentially for Canadians, as well, given the integrated nature of our economies.
"Maybe if you're willing to stick it out, it's doable over the very long term, but the medium term is miserable," said Jacqueline Best, a political economist at the University of Ottawa.
"The medium term is full of job losses and dislocation."
A domestic market of 325 million people also makes an isolationist economic policy a more viable option than it would be for smaller nations. Trade just isn't as important to the U.S. as it is to most other countries. Exports account for only 12 per cent of U.S. gross domestic product compared to 31 per cent for Canada, according to World Bank data. Imports, similarly, comprise 15 per cent of U.S. GDP versus 33 per cent for Canada.

The
White House may well veer off its current course, but if it doesn't,
Canada may need to work with other countries to blunt the damage. That
strategy is already taking shape in the form of multilateral trade deals
and a co-ordinated effort to hit vulnerable Republican congressional
districts with retaliatory tariffs.
Congress, which has the constitutional right to regulate trade, could potentially reclaim the trade file from the White House if November's midterm elections spur a renewed appetite to muster the veto-proof majority that is required to overturn the tariffs or revoke Trump's executive power to impose them.
Beyond economic considerations, an increase in U.S. protectionism also puts into sharper relief the so-called trade-peace theory, a time-tested idea that says countries that trade together don't go to war.
"One can hope the auto tariffs don't materialize, the steel tariffs are short term, that NAFTA gets back on its feet," said Best. "People have been hoping for the best for a long time, and it's pretty obvious now that was wishful thinking. If everyone is in a major recession or depression and we're fighting wars, is anyone winning?"
Sure, we know all about America First, Rust Belt jobs and Canadian dairy subsidies, but certainly, even U.S. President Donald Trump knows how much trade has helped to make Americans rich, many Canadians say to themselves.
The country's prosperity is so undeniable that it's easy, reasonable even, for Canadians to brush off Trump's anti-trade jeremiads as equal parts bluster, negotiating tactics and base-galvanizing political rhetoric.
Even with trade barriers now going up between U.S. and China, it remains hard to imagine that Trump would blow up the global trading system given how much U.S. workers would suffer, right?
Maybe not.
The influence of Peter Navarro, China hawk
The national security reasoning the Trump administration initially used to justify steel and aluminum tariffs was widely seen as a pretext that allowed the White House to bypass Congress and use executive power to regulate trade and charge unilaterally down the path of protectionism.
Even more troubling for Canada's economic fortunes, though, would be if that justification were sincere. In that light, Trump's reliance on Peter Navarro, an economist best known for his radical views on China, as one of his top trade advisers is an ominous sign.

"There's not a single trade economist who agrees that what they're saying even makes sense, apart from Peter Navarro," Ciuriak said.
A professor at the University of California, Irvine, the 68-year-old, Harvard-educated Navarro wasn't always fixated on China. Early in his career, he believed in free trade and ran for mayor of San Diego as a Democrat.

His three books on the subject paint a dark picture of a world in which the U.S. and China are hurtling toward a reckoning, and not just on trade.
In the trailer for the documentary version of Navarro's second book, Death by China, a talking head opines, "China is the only major nation in the world that is preparing to kill Americans."
Until recently, such anti-China sentiment only existed far beyond the periphery of policy discussions.
In the U.S., trade policy has often taken a back seat to foreign policy. When viewed through Navarro's theories, moves such as saddling Canada and the European Union with auto tariffs, pulling out of NAFTA and the World Trade Organization, as Trump has threatened to do in the past, and opening up a trade war with China start to make sense.
Fortress America
Similarly, a president who sees China as a menace lurking around every corner wouldn't want the U.S. to rely on any foreign country for its economic or military needs.
While economists see steel and aluminum tariffs as a tax on U.S. consumers that makes everything from beer cans to F-150s more expensive, but when imports are seen as a national security threat, that cost appears necessary in order to allow the industrial capabilities thought to be critical to the country's defence to be repatriated.

- These are the places most vulnerable to U.S. tariffs
The blueprint for Trump's retreat into Fortress America is becoming more visible. Following through on his threats to hit China with $500 billion in tariffs would effectively erect a trade wall across the Pacific. Auto tariffs would do the same across the Atlantic while abandoning NAFTA would sever economic ties with the rest of North America.
Big U.S. multinational companies are also likely to suffer. Apple, for one, must already be shuddering at the thought of losing access to China, the world's biggest smartphone market.
U.S. less reliant on trade than some
An attempt to reshape the U.S. economy would run the risk of undoing the benefits of trade. That could result in a lower standard of living for Americans and potentially for Canadians, as well, given the integrated nature of our economies.
