Perfect! It now has become expensive to export from Canada. This hurts you more than helps you if you know anything about economics. All a sudden, your jobs are about to get exported! Maybe even to America.

Owned by who? Rich people that get tax breaks from Bush? You're the American capitalist. How does the wealth trickle down to the little people when all the trickling is happening overseas?
This shifts our jobs to more lucrative positions than manufacturing. Yes, loosing manufacturering does hurt the working class with only manufacturing skill, but for those of us with a broader set of abilities, it has actually helped.

By the way, that is a myth about rich people. If you analyze it, rich people pay more taxes than anyone else.
