Canada is too small (by population) to really make a difference. In other words, this will harm Canada more than the United States. BTW, fentanyl does have its medicinal purposes.

We love America and Americans, but if someone attacks Canadian sovereignty, we will fight back. If the Canadian government invites China to invest in Technology, Agriculture, Automotive, and Oil, Canada will emerge as a different, independent, and prosperous nation. This investment could create thousands of jobs, lower EV and fuel costs, generate significant tax revenue, and strengthen the economy, as Chinese EVs are more affordable than U.S. counterparts. Ultimately, lower energy costs would decrease the cost of living and boost Canadians' spending power, attracting foreign investors to Canada.
Proposes Chinese investment as economic solution to create jobs, lower costs, and strengthen Canadian independence and prosperity.
