Because the EU at the time of WA signature were falsely promising to negotiate in good faith and were offering a Canada style trade deal which would have negated any GFA breach.
By taking such a deal off the table it is the EU that are breaking the GFA and it is the EU who will have to erect the hard border. The UK will do no such thing in any circumstance.
The UK Internal Market Bill has clarified that. It is quite clear what the British position is over NI and the EU as Boris publicly said yesterday the EU are abusive extremists negotiating in bad faith.

So your saying Boris proposed a deal that he knew was terrible for the UK (the WA). Expecting that a trade deal would be found, despite there being multiple red-lines on both sides that were not obviously solvable (hence why May couldn't solve the border issue) because reasons?
A 'Canada deal' would still have a border, a border in the Irish sea that places NI outside the UK. Canada after all has not joined the EU single market. So even with a Canada deal Boris would feel compelled to break an international treaty he himself proposed.
So how does this work in your alternative reality?
(and that is ignoring your usual 'Canada deal' BS that we have already repeatedly debunked).
ps.
Still no comment about the UK getting the literal scraps off the EU table with the great Japan trade deal ey.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

Anyone using Pompeo's endorsement of the IMB as a victory is clearly not of sound mind.
Ahem you prove my point. Your link is what the EU said after the UK signed the WA in 2020 reneging on prior promises made. This link, referring to one EU President Donald Tusk, is what was said prior at the end of 2018 and the main reason the UK signed it believing the EU would honour that offer.
"From the very beginning, the EU offer has been not just a Canada deal, but a Canada+++ deal."

That is what turned out to be a lie. That is why the UK now reserves the right to remove the WA. You are right someone is lying, as you can see and as your evidence shows it is not me. Thank you for your kind help in allowing me to clear up your obvious confusion over the facts of the matter about who said what when.

its funny to see britian wiggle like a worm.
the unescapable reality is Britain has to either institute an internal border (sea border with NI) or try to avoid one altogether by staying tied to EU rules in perpetuity, even after it has left the bloc..
britians catastrophic mismangement of brexit (as seen elsewhere with covid) has left it staring at a total diplomatic defeat. british leaders keep dealing bad hands and then continue to play them.
If Britain doesnt like the position it finds itself in, it has only itself to blame for voting to leave, for starting the countdown clock, for agreeing to the Johnson deal. No one else did that for the U.K.
Boris doing this dance with the legislation shows what a disasterous defeat there has been. He weakened britians position so much that he has finally resorted to either threatening or actually breaking international law to reassert some strength.
What a sad bunch.
The worst part is that this is extremely likely to be deliberate because Boris and those around him are likely to gain huge in personal wealth with how they have played the game. The people will suffer but Boris, Reese-Mogg and co won't because this is all part of the plan to get their pockets lined.
Apparently they found the sweet spot between fraud (this is too big for that apparently, otherwise it fulfills ALL the criteria) and high treason (this seems to little for it, albeit it also fulfills all criteria here... or it would, if the general population in the UK understood anything about the subject matter, which they don't. You can't betray sheep, they like it in that factory hall with the big knives, all of their friends are there, aren't they?)

Oh come on that's just proving my point about British not knowing the subject matter. Don't make it this easy for me...
Ignoring the obvious British nationalism and hate for Germans it has never been about Germany until you needed an excuse to hate and deflect. Truth is the EU told Britain no when they asked for more exceptions and Cameron's attempt to blackmail the EU with Brexit failed in the most spectacular and retarded fashion.
And because you don't like being embarrassed you are looking elsewhere for someone to blame. As usual you are happy enough to shit on Germany. And that is all there is to your post. Kinda pathetic to be honest.

If a no deal happens a possible added benefit for me would be that producing auto mobiles and their parts is no longer viable in the UK, what means more work here.
Would be nice to see some co-workers get their contracts extended indefinitely.

That assumes there ever was a possibility of a deal with the Uk, there was not. You spend so much time not agreeing with yourself about what the deal was going to be and then finally decided it had to be about getting the option of flooding the EU with products that would violate our internal rules
A deal could never happen, the losses that do or do not happen are worth it to keep our integrity
