Speaking of Donald Trump I believe he manufactures his clothing line in Mexico.
The true business of people should be to go back to
school and think about whatever it was they were
thinking about before somebody came along and told
them they had to earn a living.

Well Mr. Trump has a solution. Any car manufacturer moving to Mexico will have a 35% tariff imposed on cars they try to sell in USA. Does this mean it will be passed on to consumers in sale price of cars? Sure. Trump's answer? Maybe people just don't need to change cars as often.

Straight from the self proclaimed best business man in the world who made his 'successful' career based on his father's money and name, was bailed out by his father the first time, and used a loophole to claim bankruptcy 2 or 3 times to get out of trouble. Um. Lets watch him handle a country's economy the same way if elected president.

The guy has a narcissistic personality disorder. I wouldn't have believed that him running for leader of the Republican Party was even a remote possibility but truth is sometimes stranger than fiction.

Solve all of our problems with manufacturing in Canada. "GET OUT OF NAFTA" Free trade has been our downfall. Why keep the plants open in Canada when you can build them in the US and ship it to Canada Duty Free.
Make the big companies keep their plants here if they want to sell here.

Don't vote for Harper. Save Canada

Much as Harper irritates me, I'm afraid you'd have to pin NAFTA on the sleezebag Mulroney and his lies.

But not the latest round of tax cuts and gifts to BigAuto. They took the cash and then announced they're leaving Canada. The nerve of Canadians, wanting more than Mexicans will work for.
