No problem. When Heinz closed their plant in Ontario few years ago, group of employees bought it and now produce Frenchs brand ketchup from Canadian grown tomatoes. So Donny choke on this country's ketchup now they will lose significant expodts to Canada.

You do realize that Heinz was purchased by Berkshire Hathaway in February of 2013.

The first closure of Canadian plants occurred in November of 2013.

They became a majority stockholder during a merger. They never bought the whole company outright.

False.

Heinz Sold as Deals Take Off

Updated Feb. 15, 2013 12:01 a.m. ET
 

Heinz, a brand in virtually every American kitchen, is selling itself for $23 billion to another household name— Warren Buffett —and a Brazilian private-equity firm that is anything but.

Interesting 7-minute interview of a former member of the U.S. House of Representatives, founding member of WTO and former chairman of the Appellate Body of the World Trade Organization by Fox Business. Bacchus says that Trump will not win on the merit of national security as an exception. At one point Bacchus cites interviewer using "alternative" facts in her interview.

There are already "denials" by the administration that Trump mulls quitting WTO.
