No reason all that TAX money should go exclusively to US tax collectors -- and ultimately to tsf's cronies, if not his own pocket -- Canada should take a cut, equal to the Maladministration's cut.

Exporters, of course, will eventually resort to straw man purchasers, but they'll also divert a lot to other markets than the US -- and won't come back immediately, once tsf kicks the bucket.
