Perhaps it is time for both Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Premier Danielle Smith to assess their stands. Until recently, the only customer for western Canadian oil has been the United States; 90 per cent is still sold to the U.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford said Wednesday the country's leaders must put Canada first and forcefully hit back against president-elect Donald Trump if he goes ahead with punishing tariffs on all of our goods while also singling out Alberta Premier Danielle Smith for her reluctance to go all-in on retaliation.
