Which Canadian Industries Are First to Fall?

On today’s episode of True Patriot Love, Paul is joined by Mike Wixson and Jim Lang for a deep dive into what could happen if CUSMA unravels — and which Canadian industries are in the most immediate danger.

This isn’t theory anymore.

From automotive manufacturing to agriculture, energy, steel, critical minerals, forestry, construction, and even banking — we rank the sectors by the speed at which they could be damaged if tariffs return or trade rules fracture.

Here’s what we break down:

– Why the North American auto supply chain could collapse in under six months
– How dairy, beef, pork, and canola could become political bargaining chips
– The hidden risks in energy and natural gas trade
– Why steel and aluminum tariffs hit instantly and ripple everywhere
– Critical minerals and the Ring of Fire: Canada’s potential leverage card
– Construction costs, housing, and what happens downstream
– The uncomfortable truth about our banking exposure
– Whether the U.S. actually has more to lose than Canada

We also revisit the strong Canada–U.S. trade history from Mulroney–Reagan to Harper–Obama, and ask:

Is CUSMA the stabilizing force we took for granted?
Or is this moment forcing Canada to rethink self-reliance?

With July 1 approaching, this conversation is no longer academic. It’s about jobs, food prices, energy security, and Canada’s economic future.
