Summary
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is pushing to restart stalled trade talks with the U.K. as Canada seeks to reduce reliance on the U.S. amid Trump’s trade war.
While Trudeau secured a temporary delay on U.S. tariffs by agreeing to border security measures, uncertainty remains.
Talks with the U.K. broke down last year over agricultural disputes, but Canada sees renewed negotiations as beneficial for trade diversification.
Or: does Trump view them as right wing? They would all claim to be centerists. It isn’t about my viewpoint, Trump lacks natural allies in major economies
Fair enough: from Trump’s viewpoint even the gall in Italy would look like a Leftie.
In fact from what I’ve read about it (living in Europe and speaking a few European languages), the Far-Right around these parts is generally to the left of the Republicans in the US, with maybe the exception of Reform UK.
(To give you a funny example of how different things can get in Europe, the Far Right in The Netherlands when they really took of a decade or so ago were led by a guy who was very openly homosexual. Also notice how women lead the Far Right in both Italy and France and if you remember it, traditionaly the Far Right in Italy - i.e. Fascism - was all about strong men)
