Genuine question: do you believe that the immediate bow to Trump's tariffs had anything to do with the context of the `Two Michaels` and attempting to gain favour with the US amidst the political tension that Canada was in with China at the time?

At the time it was puzzling to me why Trudeau was so submissive regarding China. He bowed down to the CCP and wasn't able to secure the `Two Michaels` release. In retrospect, that might have been because of the double allegiances the Trudeau cabinet held toward China [0] [1].

He did a great job for Boeing's shareholders (me included) and the CCP. Just, not for the Canadian public it seems!
