do you think that trump pushing for patent rights for pharmaceuticals or breaking up supply management is any less ridiculous or standoffish than a chapter on indigenous rights?

are we to believe that trump thinks that trudeau wants an agreement that allows for a final abrogation of canadian sovereignty, or the final takeover of canada by american capital?

i tend to agree with coyne in roundabout ways - rarely at face, but it's because he tends to miss the obvious and get to substantive points in these roundabout ways, instead. and, coyne is right, in a sense, here: this is a ridiculous and mostly pr-driven response to an equally ridiculous set of demands. and, if anybody set this up to fail, it was trump.
