Canada trade deal. And then know celebration, just more frustration after senator mcconnell announced there will be no vote on the landmark trade agreement, saying the senate will take it up after the impeachment trial. Well not be doing usmc sarks between now and the end of next week. That will have to come up in all likelihood right after the trial is finished in the senate. Lou what can you say.
