00:03:10.100Mr. LeBlanc and Ms. Charrette, the chief negotiator, are both there in Washington with their teams and they are holding discussions, very detailed discussions, with their American counterparts.
00:13:50.320that you would normally take to the table to get something in return,
00:13:55.940he backed down on the digital services tax, the Netflix tax.
00:14:00.240he agreed to mr trump's demands on military spending and counter tariffs many of these
00:14:07.440things were going to have to happen but why not bring them to the to the bargaining table
00:14:12.920and get something in return for them rather than making every concession and then showing up
00:14:20.820empty-handed and in a position of weakness when we bargain so we still do have some leverage that
00:14:28.260Mr. Carney has not yet squandered. We have military purchases and our massive capacity to
00:14:36.960build up our and stockpile our natural resources to the potential benefit of tariff-free allies.
00:14:42.960I would bring that and other leverage to the table as quickly as possible.
00:14:47.500And I would say the United States wants to get what it wants. We want what we want,
00:14:53.980which is tariff-free access to their market for aluminum, steel, autos, and lumber.
00:15:02.740They must get rid of those tariffs, and then we can work with them to consider their demands in return.
00:15:11.360Apparently, according to other people like liberals in the media,
00:15:14.780what Pierre Polyev is doing here is very bad negotiating because he's laying his cards on the table.
00:15:19.940It's like, no, he's actually being an adult here and publicly stating the fact that you do need to make concessions to get things in return is, in fact, smart.
00:15:28.880He's basically naming what he wants, and he's saying the things that he may have been willing to give up in return.
00:15:35.020Carney has been doing this weird way where he's both playing everything super close to the vest, but he's not even playing his cards smart.
00:15:43.760He's not letting you see what he's playing, but then he's just slapping stuff out for nothing in return.0.83
