>> Canada now takes liberal virtue-signaling to exponential levels of moonbattery and demands control of the U.S. legislative process. ... demanding the U.S. pass "a federal law stopping state governments from enacting right-to-work legislation."

Well, agreed- but the 'virtue signaling' is merely a smoke screen. If it were non-hypocritical virtue signaling, the same demand from Canada would also be made of the Mexican government - at both the Mexican federal and state levels.

It isn't.

Why ?

Simple - because this is NOT really about 'virtue signaling' - it is about MONEY.

Those states with right-to-work laws have lower labor costs that make their products more competitive in CANADA than Canadian firms. Very little 'lip service' is paid to condemning Mexico's lack of unions, because far fewer Mexican items reach Canada than American items, that is why they don't care about Mexico's cheap labor.

As in all frauds, such as NAFTA, follow the money.

U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer is scheduled to speak publicly alongside Mexican Economy Minister Ildefonso Guajardo and Canadian Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland Tuesday to conclude the second round of talks toward a new North American Free Trade Agreement.

However, you can put a fork in any optimism for a successful NAFTA outcome as Canada now takes liberal virtue-signaling to exponential levels of moonbattery and demands control of the U.S. legislative process.

One source familiar with the discussions said Canada's Chrystia Freeland is demanding the U.S. pass "a federal law stopping state governments from enacting right-to-work legislation." Obviously Team U.S.A., understanding the entire construct of a U.S. Constitutional Republic and the underlying constitution therein, would not, could not and has not agreed to such a ridiculous Canadian request.

What this indicates is how far left the Canadian NAFTA negotiation team are willing to go in advancement of social justice issues that have no bearing on actual trade. They are politically virtue-signaling to their own internal domestic audiences rather than actually engage in discussion of trade parameters.

Obviously Canada's Labor Unions, and the leftists who demand government provide a basic income, are gleeful at the position. However, in reality the ridiculous demand simply showcases how detached the Canadian team are from the basic principles of nationalism and trade. ...
