fissionchipssays...Ahh question period. I'm glad our politicians have a regular opportunity to fight, and that I can regularly ignore it.
dagsays...Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)
If Barry loses, I'll blame Canada.
EDDsays...I like how Canadians are pretty much ignoring Hillary even though she also made similar remarks about stepping out of the NAFTA agreement. Do they know something we don't (yet)? I certainly hope so.

Mr. Brodie, apparently seeking to play down the potential impact on Canada, told the reporters the threat was not serious, and that someone from Ms. Clinton's campaign had even contacted Canadian diplomats to tell them not to worry because the NAFTA threats were mostly political posturing.
The Canadian Press cited an unnamed source last night as saying that several people overheard the remark.
The news agency quoted that source as saying that Mr. Brodie said that someone from Ms. Clinton's campaign called and was "telling the embassy to take it with a grain of salt."
The story was followed by CTV's Washington bureau chief, Tom Clark, who reported that the Obama campaign, not the Clinton's, had reassured Canadian diplomats.
Mr. Clark cited unnamed Canadian sources in his initial report.
There was no explanation last night for why Mr. Brodie was said to have referred to the Clinton campaign but the news report was about the Obama campaign. Robert Hurst, president of CTV News, declined to comment.
The Prime Minister's communications director, Sandra Buckler, has said that Mr. Brodie "does not recall" discussing the issue.
