I know most of these questions are related to the US and China economy, but Canada has taken a few hits this year from super powers like Saudi Arabia, and currently China. US and Canada have historically been on good economical terms, but it seems like they are no longer on the same page, as the US has continued to fail to back Canada. The US administration has put Canada in a tough positions with the request to extradite Huawei's CFO, the renegotiation around NAFTA and not backing them when calling out Saudi Arabia's human rights record.

How do you see the economical relationship between Canada and US evolving in the coming years?

I'm not OP but I wanted to say that you hit on a great point. It's the same with Saudi Arabia, where the whole world is 100% aware of their barbaric policies, their internal politics that leads to the imprisonment, torture and murder of anyone who dare speaks out against them and their disgusting record around human rights. And yet, the UK, US and Canada continue to sell them weapons and military equipment in the name of "fighting terror" in Iran and Yemen. The 3 aforementioned countries pride themselves in how they are "free countries" and defenders of "human rights" while simultaneously chugging money and basically enabling countries like China and Saudi Arabia to continue their human rights violations.

Unfortunately, if you have ever studied economics, you know that GDP and trade is not built on human rights. Economics is all about how you can maximize profit. Economics does not care how goods are made and traded, as long as you are maximizing profit.
