Canada is not a very good ally. Neither is Mexico, for that matter. Both of them are happy to sell out America to China for a few pieces of silver. We need to change this and they both enjoy MANY benefits provided by America. That means we are in control, if we want to be.
Canada has for the first time blocked a sale of stockpiled rare earth elements mined in its far north to a firm in China, which dominates the sector, a senior government source said Tuesday.
