About the same, really. When it comes to Canadian policy, I don't think the US "pushes us around" much. They have influence, but I would not call it undue, I would call it about proportional to their importance as a trading partner. Canada seems rather immune to pressure from US officials.

That said, there are a lot of ministers and the like in Ottawa who tend to *agree* with US viewpoints. And we have our own cronies anyway. In this respect, a minority gov't helps us a bit, but only because it makes the NDP a little powerful.
