*PM says Trump is trying to make it easier to annex Canada — but it won’t work *
An unbowed Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Tuesday that Canada will hit back hard at the U.S. after President Donald Trump launched a North American trade war by slapping devastating 25 per cent tariffs on virtually all Canadian goods.
Speaking to reporters at a news conference on Parliament Hill, Trudeau said Trump is trying to prompt “a total collapse of the Canadian economy” because he thinks that will “make it easier to annex us.”
But Trudeau said that will never happen because “when it comes to defending our great nation, there is no price we all aren’t willing to pay.”
Trudeau said Canada will not back down from a fight in the face of “completely bogus and completely unjustified” trade action that has the potential to ruin bilateral relations and prompt job losses, economic devastation and higher inflation on both sides of the border.
If project 2025 is to be believed then its to force other countries to remove their tariffs and other barriers on US imports, and is meant to be a large shock that forces countries to give in to your demands.
Id say it is to be believed given the project 2025 talks about implementing a border wall and implementing capital punishment, which is a thing Trump has been talking about for decades even though it’s removed, and is non-sense from an economic think tank.

Listen. I agree, but don’t use the r slur. It makes you sound out-of-touch and makes you look like an asshole.
