\u0027Based on what the prime minister, in terms of his reset and his green shift and \u0022build back better,\u0022 none of this will work unless we do this in tandem with the U.S.\u0027

Senior government sources would not speak on the record this week when asked whether Freeland will continue to be front and centre or whether other ministers — notably Champagne and International Trade Minister Mary Ng — will manage the file.Freeland’s appointment as lead minister coincided with U.S. President Donald Trump’s demand for a new North American free trade deal, which finally came into effect on July 1 following more than a year of tense, and sometimes acrimonious, negotiations.

“She was very sharp,” said Robertson, who is now vice-president of the Canadian Global Affairs Institute. “And I thought: ‘This is right. It’s exactly the right tone. But you don’t want the prime minister to do it because Trump is going to take offence.”‘ “Because the relationship is so big and multifaceted, lots of people end up interacting with the U.S.,” Greenwood said.

Whether Freeland remains the lead minister or not, both Greenwood and Robertson believed she will continue to play a big role in her new position, which will include leading the restart of Canada’s pandemic-ravaged economy.

Anyone who the Grand Cheeto awards the 'nasty woman' tag, is definitely effective.

After she couldn’t keep her trap shut and publicly insulted President Trump multiple times amidst important trade talks? We deserve everything that comes our way.

They are all toast, just stop reporting on this corrupt bunch of people. No programs get passed none pass the smell test, gun to head legislation, not going to happen this time, the gov. get booted on Sept. 23, emergency public service will continue on with Cerb.

No.

Yeah, cuz if she's good at anything, it's pi$$ing off the Americans.

Everything but the kitchen sink. This is not how a healthy gov't works. That is a pretty high horse they have just put her on.

Why do u suggest it's a good idea for her to lead Can/US relations after calling realDonaldTrump a tyrant (projection?). And her economic failure with 'Reuters Next'? cdnpoli JustinJournos cdnmedia RebelNewsOnline TrueNorthCentre

Trump has no use for her, so should be interesting...we all know Mark Carney, Greenie and UN supporter will be running finance ministry, so Freeland will have lots of time on her hands

So basically what this column is saying is that Trudeau has NO ONE in his cabinet that is competent. He expects freeland to do everything, and she’s not even that competent... good luck Canada/ your being lead by a bunch of clowns.

I predict she will be a disaster. She will attempt to impose her 'convictions' and 'vision' on the US and they will (politely) chuckle and ignore her. She will burst into tears (again). Chrystia is a head case like many others in cabinet.

baha that worked out so well🤡

All In The TrudeauCorruption Family

Wow pushing Freeloader hard. Wonder what is up.

apparently stilted speaking is a big plus in cabinet

And Dominic now has a contender for shit slinger in cheif. Unless of course she's made to fall on her sword too.

She has proven herself more than capable!!

That’s a shame as she came out of the trade agreement with a worse deal than NAFTA. Sounds like she’s scared of finance.

Much to the chagrin of our biggest trading partner...

The swamp witch cafreeland just won’t go away!

Gonna show the boys who’s boss

Freeland clips her toenails in Parliament. She almost wrote the biography for George Soros' book, because they are that close. Pour some water on her and I'm sure she'll dissolve.

Oh yes, they really have dolled her up.

I hope so, she’s a damn queen

How many men can one woman replace?
