What an idiotic and bogus version of events.

While we do over 70% of our trade with the US, and exports account for roughly 40% of our GDP and over 1/3 of our jobs, the US does relatively much less trade with us and has relatively fewer jobs at stake.  So Reagan had to be persuaded to even bother considering a free trade agreement with Canada and he only did so because of  his warm relationship with his fellow Irishman Mulroney.  And the FTA and its successor NAFTA have been very good for the Canadian economy, good (I would argue) but less good for the US economy.  This is evident to all but the rabid far left mouth breathers like yourself which explains why all parties - even the NDP - in Canada support NAFTA and why the US parties are  less enthusiastic about it.

This was not the last time that Reagan told his officials "we have to do something for Brian".  The acid rain treaty - one of the reasons why Lizzie May called Mulroney Canada's greenest PM - was another.
