I’ve asked before and nobody showed me a single news source that says that, nor could I find anything that points to it being protected thanks to the tax being cut, other than Trumpet being muppet about not being able to export US dairy and poultry to Canada with impunity.
Could somebody please share a reliable source with us here?
Otherwise, could we let this argument die? The US is mad about Canada keeping an import control that’s been in effect since tRump 1.0 and is very limited in scope, and we sacrificed a tax that was supposed to earn the government money on June 30th, 2025, which is its supposed first collection, just to have Mump continue complaining about the import control? We got nothing out of this.
A source for this claim would be great, because I haven’t heard anyone from the government say this. Even Carney, when directly asked if Canada got anything in return for scrapping the DST, got tongue-tied and then deflected, saying it’s ‘part of a larger process’.
Not how you react if you’re confident in your position, imo
Nobel laureates can be wrong too, even when it’s on the topic of what they won for. Just look at Obama’s drone warfare program after he won the Peace prize.
I feel there is a big distance between piss poor and wrong (as in incorrect).
I agree with you that experts - or people with relevant experience - can be incorrect.
My commenting in this thread didn’t hit its mark. I saw comments that I thought were unreasonably rejecting of a legitimate perspective from someone with credentials on the matter. Maybe it triggered me about today’s anti-knowledge climate (e.g., anti-vaxx). Oh well, live and learn
Disagree. We gave up a tax we never collected to protect our dairy/poultry markets from inferior US products.
This is piss poor journalism and a perfect example of what nobody wants to pay for.

Politics is just sports now. GO TEAM. MY TEAM WIN EVERYONE ELSE DIE
And journalism is basically barstool sports.
In case you’re unaware, you’re accusing a Nobel Laureate in economics of piss poor journalism

Explain how that’s relevant.
Well we cant really complain when the US protects its domestic industry via tariffs then can we?
I’m sure not everyone is happy about exporting car and oil production to Canada.
