In a nod to labor unions, President Joe Biden is moving to boost wages for construction workers on projects paid for with federal funding, a step that would appeal to a key constituency ahead of next year’s presidential election and potentially shrink the pay gap between northern and southern states.

    You are simply saying the same thing over and over again and you’re still wrong. Arguing semantics is silly at best.

    The first trade agreement was signed by Reagan and Mulroney. I remember the negotiations happening and was disgusted by how Mulroney simply caved to what Reagan wanted (as many other Canadians were at the time).

    The agreement never helped Canada at all. It was only good for the US exports. It didn’t lower costs to us or help Canada.
