In 1988, the federal election campaign was dominated by the U.S.-Canada Free Trade Agreement. In an intense exchange during a federal leaders’ debate, Liberal leader John Turner assailed then-prime minister Brian Mulroney for selling out Canadian interests to the United States. Mulroney defended his stance, saying he believed it was good for the country and was his own version of “nation-building.” #CdnPoli #FreeTrade #80s #Debate #Retro #Throwback #CBCNews

The National Envelope goes to Saint John, where U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariff threats are weighing heavily this election. A recent report from the Canadian Chamber of Commerce puts the New Brunswick port city at the top of a list of places that would be most hurt by U.S. tariffs, with 96.3 per cent of its total exports going south of the border. And with so much at stake, voters had a lot to say. The National Envelope will be heading across the country over the next few weeks with different questions about the big issues in this election. #election #canada #tariffs #cbcnews #newbrunwick

The remaining three are in Montreal, the Carrefour Laval mall and Pointe-Claire, Que. #HudsonsBay #Canada #TheBay #Retailer #CBCNews
