They have been complaining. US diplomat to Canada openly criticised Canada. Similarily, numerous letters to the editor in numerous Canadian newspapers from Americans - some have called us "cowards."Most here rarely ever think negative thoughts about Canada. Except perhaps for wondering why anybody bothers buying a NBA or MLB franchise there. I know there was great appreciation for you by much of the American flying public who were stranded all over Canada following 9/11.
What little negativity I've seen has resulted out of various rude statements about the President from a few bureaucrats in the Canadian government.
In fact the only rude statements I regularly see about the Canadian government come Canadians that I know who feel that Ottawa doesn't represent them.
I don't see any indications of problems for the trade relationship between the two countries now or in the future. If anything, Canada should fear a Democrat party win in both the legislature and the executive. That means the major labor unions would have more sway in the government and they are not fans of NAFTA.
