Without a doubt a Harris win would have been better for Canadian manufacturers Canadian oil producers Canadian ag producers. In the short term. The pro energy and anti-war policies will not be good for commodity prices. Protectionism will hurt all Canadian industries.
In the long run, Canada can't charge its own course if the US is actually heading down the fiscal responsibility path (yet to be seen if that will actually be the case. It certainly wasn't true last time around). This should be the end of the anti-energy climate craziness woke ideology. That will most definitely spill over into Canada.
I'm willing to make some short-term sacrifices for the long-term good of both countries.
And just because I know it will get certain members all riled up, the West is far more likely to secede from Canada and join the US under a energy friendly and tariff heavy Trump administration.
Tariffs might be the issue intentionally designed to force us into that outcome.
