        Every one knows Canadian goods are not the issue here anyway.

        Having to compete with 30 cent an hour workers is. Both campaigns allegedly had spokesmen who made these same "asides", yet it was used to make only one appear to have made a gaff.

Don't be duped.

        A fair and sustainable trade policy must be sought, I know Canadians have lost at least a third of a million jobs due to "globalization" so it isn't simply a US issue.

        FTA

        "The memo, written by a consular employee, says Goolsbee privately told Rioux that Obama's attack on free trade is "more reflective of political manoeuvring than policy.""

        Well, who is lying to who?
