NOT IN OUR COUNTRY

Kudos to Kevin Vuong (“Obey the laws of Canada or be deported,” Feb. 3). I would go a step further. For naturalized citizens who are guilty of serious misconduct or disloyalty to Canada, e.g. antisemitic protests, that may be grounds for citizenship revocation and deportation.

A BIGGER MARKET

My Economics 101 Introduction thought us companies owned and operated by “Canadians” should only have 5 to 10% of their business be with one country. Why? Because of adverse conditions such as what we have with the U.S. — we could cancel imports and/or exports and not be hurt because we can increase our market share elsewhere. Years ago, our government had trade missions with solely owned Canadian companies. Export and/or imports, we would have trade missions to and fro with countries like India, the Philippines, etc. We have too many eggs in one basket. Canadian companies need to change their business plan. Our government needs to offer them guidance and assistance. This is one way to handle buffoonery tariffs.

SAY SORRY JUSTIN

Justin Trudeau needs to man up and publish an official apology to President Trump and all the American people who voted for him — the remarks he made after the election have put this country in danger of being collateral damage because of him running off his mouth and it’s not the first time he’s done that. He also needs to put country first and recall Parliament and face the electorate. A full page in every major newspaper in the U.S.A. is a good start. To our American friends: Justin Trudeau doesn’t speak for us, he is long past his due date and will be gone soon.
