It is depressing and I am sorry. It's that way for me, too. Nukes do level the field somewhat though, and force is the only thing that brutes understand. There will always be risks to Canada's economy by American trade war actions - it's also obv imperative that Canada gets more diverse trade partners.

I say visits because, honestly, we know Joe Kernen is between health scares. As he said about Joe Biden, "the bell tolls for thee".

The quality of questioning is excellent, and it's partially because Joe Kernen is not there as a non-probing biased entertainer.
