What will be the longer term implications of Trump's threat (now paused) of increased tariffs on Canadian imports?
In the short term Canada may certain accede to Trump's demands, but as Roland Paris argues,
'Canadian political and corporate leaders will... face intensified pressure to reduce Canada’s vulnerability to future threats from Washington'!
A potential short-term win for Trump but poisoning US/Canada relations may have less positive consequences.
