P406
Canada will fall into a massive recession very soon as a direct result of the US-Canada trade war.

What Jiang said

“Trump knows he has all the cards and uh you will have a massive recession in Canada very very soon.”

Analysis

He argues Trump holds all the leverage as the buyer of Canadian resources, so Canada cannot win a trade standoff and will be pushed into recession, which he expects will in turn push Albertans toward independence.
