U.S. President Donald Trump will impose 25% tariff on most Canadian imports beginning Tuesday
B.C. Premier David Eby has announced immediate countermeasures in response to incoming U.S. tariffs, saying the province will take action to protect B.C. workers and businesses.
. . .
As an initial response, Eby said he has directed the B.C. Liquor Distribution Branch to immediately stop purchasing American liquor from Republican-led “red states” and remove the top-selling brands from public liquor store shelves.
He also directed the B.C. government and Crown corporations to prioritize Canadian goods and services in procurement decisions.
“The Americans are bigger, but if we don’t stand up for ourselves, they will just keep coming back for more,” he said.
As an American in a red state (by no fucking choice, I promise you) it would really suck for even more business to leave our state because they can’t sell their wares because of where they’re based… But it’s exactly what needs to happen. Fuck this state. Fuck the Republicans. Fuck any business, any organization that willingly backs this shit. Boycott us, and it’s gonna suck, but it needs to be done. Money and bullets are the only things these people understand, and bullets aren’t a safe route to take.
Bullets are great, though. They work on billionaires who are too rich to care if they waste 40 billion dollars, and they also work on poor people who genuinely believe in the fascist cause and want to cause suffering for its own sake.
