> Moderating: In the last mod note I mentioned that further hijacks were going to be moderated with less tolerance. @uzi, your hijack is one you have repeated in every Canada-facing thread, and predates the most recent USA/Canadian trade agreement, which is, again the subject of this thread. Since you cannot stay on topic, despite three notes so far, I’m banning you from this thread. Do not post in it further. Again, to all, please stay on topic, or spin off a related thread as needed.

In short, poster Uzi is banned from the above thread, following a pattern of hijacks and three mod notes.
