Trump and trade - take a valium

Nigel Hannaford, Western Standard News Services

Author and political economist Brian Lee Crowley is founder of Ottawa’s leading think tank, the Macdonald-Laurier Institute, and also the Washington-based Center for North American Prosperity . and  Security. 

In this edition of Hannaford, he says that notwithstanding alarmist — indeed vituperative — predictions by Canadian mainstream media commentators, fundamental economic realities dictate that life will go on as before in Canada. The same goes for a possible Harris presidency. "There are constraints upon what Trump would be able to do, and those same constraints would apply to a Democrat president."
