Canadian Tariff situation gets its own thread

This is wild. I dunno what to call this, but it feels more like a progressive policy. A big tax, a big experiment - and run completely by the executive, without any legislative input.
If nothing else, we’re about to see some real world data.

Haven't seen this many humans sacrificed to scientific experiments since the Nazis.
Education is extremely important.

Could somebody please explain to me the rationale of having higher tariffs on Canada than China?
President Trump is taking bold action to hold Mexico, Canada, and China accountable to their promises of halting illegal immigration and stopping poisonous fentanyl and other drugs from flowing into our country.
Now you know.

That’s no rationale. If you believe China’s behind the Fentanyl, then they would have the highest tariffs, not the lowest.

I am surprised (but not really I guess) that there has been no "push back" from Congress.

Interesting observation.
For my part, until recently I had thought the USA’s 19 Brumaire would still be a post Trump event. I was wrong, I now think Trump has already sent the National Assembly back to their homes and appointed himself First Consul without anyone taking notice. We are now beginning to experience what it will be like. You realize that at the end of the first story Alexander I ‘s army occupied the streets of Paris.

And we would be paying Canada since the net flow of immigrants, (and probably fentanyl), is south to north.

Don’t forget the issue of illegal firearms traffick from south to north…. but MAGAt ideology forbids us to talk about that.

Time for infinite tariffs:
Please explain to Governor Trudeau, of Canada, that when he puts on a Retaliatory Tariff on the U.S., our Reciprocal Tariff will immediately increase by a like amount!

Anyone wanna take a crack at how this is not insane? Best case scenario, Trump tries to extort concessions with this (by reneging on the USMCA).
At worst this is a hard economic decoupling.

Yeah, this is stupid.

Trumpigula even managed to lose his biggest fan in Canada, the one who controls the valve on the oil and gas heading into the USA:
Right now she says she has no plans for a surcharge on oil and gas exports to the US or cut back on energy deliveries but the internal public and now, industry, pressure for her to put an energy surcharge on the export product is growing steadily.
As far as I’m concerned she just start turning back the valve and let MAGAt rabble start paying the market price for their gas at the pumps.
Stay tuned folks, we will stand up to the school yard bully and its extortionist foreign policy.
