The problem is that the counter-argument is “that’s a lie,” but stupid people don’t understand that you cannot spend all day explaining basic economics to people who start from the assumptions of the lie in the first instance and are thus uneducable. https://twitter.com/scottadamssays/status/1005922978863992833 …

I simply asked the public to provide a link describing trade with Canada in a way we citizens can judge as fair or unfair. No one passed the test. I'm sure Tom would like to see such a link too. Wouldn't you?

I only need one article that summarizes the trade situation with US and Canada in a way that a citizen can judge looks either fair or unfair. Which one of those articles do you think does that?

No idea what that means. Sorry. I just volunteered rigorous empirical analyses of our trade agreements (among many others easily found on Google). Deciding if the evidence/analysis is "fair" - a subjective term - is up to you.

I already said I'd be the judge of fair. I'm looking for the clear summary of the situation with US-Canada trade. How is that confusing?

That doesn't address my request for a clear summary that would include this sort of information plus tariffs/protections, etc.

Do you have an example of such a clear summary for any other subject, so we can understand what you expect?
