The mayor of a Canadian border city says the prime minister and premiers should speak to communities like his about frustration with the United States that is bubbling up over president-elect Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs and comments about absorbing Canada.

“[The relationship] is deteriorating and people are saying they’re not going to cross the border,” said Mike Bradley, the mayor of Sarnia, Ont., which has a border crossing with Port Huron, Mich.

“I’m hearing it on a constant basis: 'We don’t want to do that anymore because we’re being disrespected.”

    After a quick look at your history, if you like America so much maybe you should just go there. I’m not dignifying the rest with a response.

      That a weird reaction… What history? Nothing to add to the point? What would be bad in economic free trade union? Lots of Canadians I talked to are dreaming of moving to the states, BTW - lower cost of living and higher wages.
