Responding to hostility with hostility is emotional, not rational.

The geographic reality is that Canada derives substantial, permanent trade and defence advantages from our position as neighbours. Realignment towards China and Europe for emotional reasons squanders those advantages.

If the US is no longer interested in being a good-faith partner, what alternative does Canada have?

And how do you classify to responding to hostility with submission?

Besides, Canada isn't even being hostile. A divorce is very different from abuse or harassment.
