    Funny, I don’t recall paying a tariff? Did any of you? Those Americans certainly seem to be paying a lot in tariffs though.

      Calm the fuck down.

      This only effects Canadian products being sold to the U.S… Companies will raise the price of products, costing not us, but U.S. Americans. Their food banks are already running out in the mornings, he is litterly starving his country. While funneling money towards Argentina, and hurting his own American Farmers.

      They already have protests for “No Kings”, at this rate their will be a collapse of the country, or a coup.

    I’m not sure what the tarrifs currently are, but I’m not sure this is as dramatic as it sounds.

    As an example, if the tarrifs are currently 30%, raising them 10% over and above what they currently are would make them 33%, right? …right?

    Then again, he’s already proven that he can’t do maths

      Yeah no he means that if they’re 30% he’s making them 40%.

      Again, unilaterally and without the vote of Congress, which hems supposed to need.

      Can someone please remove him? What the fuck are we even doing here?

    So, I’m not sure if I understand this correctly, but…

    They jailed a guy on terrorism charges for posting a Charlie Kirk Trump quote.

    Does the Ontario government now get charged with terrorism for quoting Reagan?

    That’s how things work now right?

    US businesses impacted negatively by this will blame Canada, because their God Trump tells them so.

    US is said and done, most people here just don’t see it yet or aren’t willing to accept it.

    Glad they pulled those Reagan tariff commercials to appease him. Yet again they fall for his whining bitch-fest and give him what he wants and he does whatever he wants anyway. Stop enabling him.

    Bring back the commercials. Bring back the digital services tax.

      BC Premier David Eby is preparing a digital ad campaign stating exactly that. Canadian lumber has higher tarrifs than Russian lumber imported into the USA:

          Since Trump shit his pants, he didn’t need to keep running the ad. If Trump had kept his mouth shut, it would have been a blip. Since he filled his diapers, everyone has seen it, talked about it, heard of it, know of it. The ad did exactly what it was designed to do.

          Why keep running it when it has become viral and people watch it for free?

              Of course, it does make Ford look really weak saying he was pulling the ad.

    Is there a chance he means the sectoral tariffs, or is this just another symbolic one we don’t actually pay in practice?

      We do not pay the tariffs, the people buying stuff pay the tariffs.

        True! The more accurate way of putting it would be “our clients have to pay”.

        That’s not entirely true tbf. I know some people who work as electrical engineers in factories and the tariffs do hurt their businesses quite a lot
