  1. But you can't have a Canada-style FTA. Distance is a barrier to trade. Unlike the Canucks, you're right at our doorstep.

  4.  @jpw6893  Yeah, I'm sure the Yanks, who're even more obese than you, will gladly sell you their shite.

  6.  @jpw6893  It's not about chlorine, but about dodgy food and farming practices in the US, which the Americans try to remedy with disinfectants such as chlorine. Imagine your mum making you a cup of tea without washing her hands first, despite having just worked with horse manure in the garden. To prevent you from getting the runs, she slips a Milton tablet in your cup. Sure enough, you'll be fine -- or so the theory goes. It's common knowledge that the Yanks very much want you to repeal your cumbersome laws pertaining to food safety, so they can start dumping their sub-standard foodstuffs. You'd better stock up on bleach. I hear it cures corona, too.
