Canada cuts out middleman in US trade war by negotiating directly with Putin

MOSCOW – The Canadian government has relocated its NAFTA trade negotiations to Russia, a diplomatic maneuver that will eliminate US President Donald Trump as a middleman.

Five Canadian members of the trade mission to save NAFTA diverted their plane from Washington, DC to Moscow after Trump’s press conference in Finland.

“We can end this trade war if we start complimenting the Russian leader on his manliness and ignore how many journalists or opposition leaders he’s killed.”.

Freeland added “there was too much on the line to waste our time on an angry marionette show.”.

“We’re asking Mr. Putin to instruct Mr. Trump to instruct Republicans in Congress to kill Buy American requirements-related bills,” said one unnamed Canadian delegate.

“And maybe replace the US Ambassador to Canada with someone who believes in climate change, but we might have to recognize the Crimea as part of Russia.”.

In an effort to sway the Russian delegation, Freeland and her team plan on greeting their counterparts with a traditional human rights abuse. »
