Betrayed? Harper Secretly Meeting Behind Canada’s Back With Trump White House
It's a disturbing pattern of publically undermining Canada during tense NAFTA negotiations
CTV News reports that Stephen Harper is secretly planning to visit the Trump White House on July 2nd, a day after retaliatory Canadian tariffs are set to kick in.
It is unclear why Stephen Harper is meeting the White House at this time. Harper did not inform the Canadian government or the Canadian embassy, as per normal protocol.
While we do not know the reason for the meeting, Harper has recently been off-side with Canadian NAFTA negotiations.
While all Canadian political parties have rallied together to present a unified message against Trump, Harper has taken the opposite approach. In a letter to his corporate clients, Harper publicly undermined Canada’s NAFTA negotiations and argued we should give up environmental and worker protections.
