Commitment comes after week of chaotic messaging from U.S. president
U.S. President Donald Trump says he will end a month-long pause and slap a 25 per cent tariff on most Canadian goods as of March 4, claiming he needs to take action because “drugs are still pouring into our country” despite evidence that a crackdown at the border is working.
Trump said in a social media post Thursday that fentanyl imports are killing people and the U.S. “cannot allow this scourge to continue to harm the USA” and he will levy a 25 per cent tariff on Canada “until it stops, or is seriously limited.”
He also says his threatened reciprocal tariffs on specific goods set to come into effect in April “will remain in full force and effect.”
The commitment comes after a week of chaotic messaging from the president.
Yup. I don’t know why we’d even try to appease a convicted felon and rapist.
I wouldn’t even bother trying to deal with that Nazi pig at this point. Raise the price of all our essentials goods to them. If we’re really vindictive, hold back any sales of potash and other materials needed for their agriculture for a while. Starve the beast.
Start raising of oil, power and potash to compensate our losses. Keep increasing the price everytime he adds a new tarrif. Hell I would raise everytime he says ‘governor Trudeau’
If we made “governor trudeau” a drinking game, we’d all need new livers by 10:04 AM.
Just potash alone would kill them. That’s a huge hit to lose so much necessary fertilizer. Impact the food chain heavy and suddenly the citizens aren’t so comfy to let It all go down.
And oil. Let’s do that, too.
