Frida Ghitis: Trudeau Liberals considering banning Alberta oil and gas exports as bargaining chip.

Ghitis says it would be foolish to rule out any option in negotiations with U.S. President Donald Trump .

She says it's hard to imagine the economic suffering, let alone the white hot anger out in Alberta , but given the desperation of the Liberals , who knows what our lame duck leader Justin Trudeau will do? Ghitis asks.

Jean Chretien said Americans buy products for Canada not to do us any favours, but because they need our goods, such as Alberta ’s heavy oil and Quebec electricity.

The U.S. does indeed benefit immensely from access to the Canadian market and from the secure supply of Canadian oil, gas, uranium and minerals.

But if there's any reality to the notion of sacrificing Alberta oil and gas exports in the interests of the Liberal party , Trump will have won.
