Dear editor,

The latest accusations by President Trump, of how Canada treats the USA so badly with respect to trade is just mind-blowing. I realize that when dealing with a bully there are few options. Especially with someone who is not particularly smart and only accepts his version of the truth. I have finally come to the conclusion I have to do something to register my own dissatisfaction. I will endeavour to not purchase anything that originates from the USA. We have lots of choices in products from other countries if not available from Canada. Occasionally there will be no options so some flexibility will be required. My efforts will not cause the USA to immediately change their policies, but the efforts of many might register with the citizens across the border to take note. I encourage all to take a personal stand in what ever way you see fit. Hopefully we can help make a change in attitude.

Peter Wilson,

Comox
