Of course you can. And you need to do it because of what we just discussed. Your country and mine depend on energy. We will consume it regardless of trade agreements. If oil goes back down to $20/bbl you may find yourselves in a trade surplus position again.
My information was gleaned from sitting in a tractor bored half to death listening to CBC radio discuss economics with so called experts. I have made the assumption that they are more knowledgeable than myself.
1998 was a very long time ago in the oilpatch. 10 years of oil boom since has made quite a difference.

If the deal sans energy is such a good deal for the US, (which would have to be detrimental to the other party in the deal, Canada) why is your leader such a cheerleader for it?
