The U.S. said Monday it will be imposing an additional 50 per cent tariff on Canadian imports due to retaliatory and “discriminatory” measures Canada took in response to U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs.
Trump signed three executive orders, each one using a different justification for the new tariff: the provincial and territorial boycotts on American alcohol products, Canada’s retaliatory tariffs on U.S.-made vehicles and auto parts, and quotas on American dairy imports under Canada’s supply management system.
The new tariff will take effect in 30 days and will apply to goods covered by the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement on free trade (CUSMA), according to the orders.
“Over the past year and a half, only two countries have chosen to retaliate against President Trump’s tariffs rather than negotiate a deal with the United States: the People’s Republic of China and Canada,” the White House said in a statement on the new tariff.
“President Trump’s tariffs have resulted in 18 deals opening new markets for U.S. exports and bringing reciprocity back to America’s trade relations. Yet Canada has elected to discriminate against the United States rather than address Canadian trade barriers.”
The tariff will be imposed under Section 338 of the U.S. Tariff Act of 1930, which allows a president to tariff goods from any country that “discriminates … against the commerce of the United States,” the act says.
The statute has never been used for this purpose before, a senior administration official told reporters on background.
Only energy products, critical minerals, potash, fish, and goods already facing Section 232 tariffs like steel, aluminum and autos will be exempt.
The lists of goods subject to the new tariff covers Canadian alcohol, dairy and agricultural products, as well as furniture, paper, hockey sticks and other gear, cement, clothing and textiles.
“This is not a trade war,” the official said. “These are defensive measures taken to remedy discriminatory actions by Canada.”
In a statement, Prime Minister Mark Carney said Canada, “as is its right,” had “merely matched” Trump’s auto tariffs with its own retaliatory duties.
“More broadly, in response to these measures and threats to Canadian sovereignty, provinces, territories, and Canadians from coast to coast to coast have stood together, taking the necessary actions to support our economy and defend our workers, farmers, businesses, and families,” Carney said.
“This trade dispute has raised costs for families, particularly in the U.S. Canada stands ready to engage intensively to address outstanding issues with the U.S. to the mutual benefit of our citizens.”
Carney did not specifically say whether his government would retaliate over the threatened tariff or remove any of the measures targeted by Trump.
“In all circumstances, Canada will work relentlessly and take any measures necessary to build our strength at home and to support Canadian workers, farmers, businesses, and families,” he said.
Tariff further upends trade talks
The new tariff comes after the U.S. declined to renew CUSMA for another 16 years at a scheduled review earlier this month. The trilateral trade pact will now be subject to annual reviews, and will expire in 2036 unless it’s renewed in the future.
Get breaking National news
Trump administration officials have cited the U.S. alcohol boycotts, which were enacted last year after Trump began tariffing Canada and Mexico to spur actions to combat fentanyl trafficking, as a major irritant in CUSMA and bilateral trade talks.
While Alberta and Saskatchewan dropped their bans last summer, the other provinces and territories have upheld them, defending the actions as appropriate given Trump’s attacks on Canadian trade and sovereignty.
Ontario Premier Doug Ford said this month that the “fastest and only way to get U.S. alcohol back on Ontario shelves is for the U.S. to drop its illegal tariffs on Canada,” after U.S. Republican Congresswoman Claudia Tenney introduced legislation seeking to punish Canada for the boycotts.
Ford said Monday in a social media post on X that, if the new U.S. tariff goes ahead, “Canada should respond tariff for tariff, dollar for dollar.”
“I’ll never stop fighting to protect Ontario,” he wrote.
Carney also defended the bans when pressed by reporters in April, while noting they were decisions made by provinces and territories rather than Ottawa.
“You know what’s an irritant? Fifty per cent tariffs on steel, 50 per cent tariffs on aluminum, 25 per cent tariff on automobiles, all the tariffs on forest products,” he said.
“Those are more than irritants. Those are violations of our trade deal.”
Canada’s supply management system for its dairy sector has long been a target of Trump’s anger over Canadian trade, but Ottawa — at Quebec’s urging — has defended the quota system.
Carney has said the issue was not on the table for CUSMA negotiations.
“Any weakening (of supply management) is non-negotiable,” Quebec Premier Christine Frechette posted in French on X. “We will defend it without compromise.”
Frechette called the threatened tariff “unjustified and concerning,” adding now was “the worst time to add a layer of instability to Quebec’s economy.”
Carney is set to meet with premiers at an in-person meeting in Charlottetown on Thursday, where the new tariff threat is now expected to dominate the discussion. Frechette said she would raise the issue with Carney at the meeting.
Conservatives blasted Trump’s tariff threat but also took at aim at Carney and the Liberal government for not negotiating with more urgency.
“Canadians are not a punching bag,” Conservative MPs Shuvaloy Majumdar, Eric Duncan, Stephanie Kusie and Pierre Paul-Hus said in a joint statement.
“President Trump is wrong to target Canadian workers and must reverse these tariffs immediately. And Mark Carney was wrong to surrender Canada’s leverage for over a year and a half, without actually working to secure the deal he promised.”
Earlier Monday, Carney said he spoke with Trump about trade on Sunday when the two were together at the FIFA World Cup final match in New Jersey.
“The president and I had a conversation more broadly strategically about trade and where that’s going,” he said.
The Trump administration official, however, told reporters that Trump did not raise the possibility of the new tariff with Carney on Sunday.
The official said trade talks are ongoing with Canadian officials but noted “we’re not in a formal negotiating stage at this point,” with no timeline in place for that process to begin.
U.S. negotiations with Mexico, meanwhile, have been progressing since earlier this year.
The official added that the new tariff is not related to the tariffs Trump threatened this weekend on Canada over wildfire smoke that has crossed into the U.S.
Trump has “asked for options on that,” the official said.
The Canadian Chamber of Commerce called the new tariff threat “a regrettable escalation” by the U.S., but expressed confidence that discussions between the two countries may lead to a resolution before the 30-day window closes.
“We knew this would get bumpier before landing,” president and CEO Candace Laing said in a statement, adding the business group has warned the federal government about the possibility of Section 338 tariffs.
“Both sides need to use this window to make meaningful progress in advancing formal talks. There are important discussions to get to that will strengthen not threaten our shared prosperity.”

Trump right all long Canada as usual fucked up for the sake of climate
There is a famous debate in the early 1980s; Brian Mulroney vs John Turner. Turner told Mulroney not to enter into a free trade agreement with the US, otherwise you are tying Canada’s economic levers to control by the US. Mulroney promised he would never enter a free trade deal with the US. So here we sit today with CUSMA, with a rope around our necks and the whipping boy of Trump.
Thank you Conservatives and Brian Mulroney!
In hindsight, Ole Pierre Trudeau had it right in the first place: build a nationalized oil industry; not tied to the US west Texas Brent crude oil price.
Today, Canada would have been in control of their own oil prices and lower stable oil prices in this era of Trump chaos.
Maybe it’s time to return to a nationalized oil industry concept and walk away from CUSMA to end cheap oil prices for the US. Canadians are asked today to build pipelines to the 3 coasts of Canada because it’s beyond the capacity of any one province. The oil sands are viable now at 70-80.00 per barrel. We need to stop giving away our oil to the US for 40.00 per barrel. We need to be independent of the US economics. The next pipeline resource needed by the US is our water. Let’s not make the same mistake twice over!
Master negotiator? Nothing more than a criminal robbing us blind. Thank Ontario Liberal voters, must be dumber than a sack of wet leather.
Typical bully action. Americans are going blind because of that clown. Stay away from USA and their products
@Wishing Trump was my President – your wish has been granted. Pack your bags and hand over your Canadian passport, you’re being deported to Texas tonight.
All Trump haters who call him “Orange” are racists… what does it matter what color his skin is? Name calling, or calling for his death is very low level human behavior. Notice that nobody is calling on Trudeau or Carney to die or have bad things happen to them? This shows you anti-Trump/American Canadiots are the ones voting for the Liberals ruining this country. Keep voting Left and Trump and Americans will keep putting Canada in its place, UNTIL WE LEARN to respect the world super-power called USA, or we become the 51st state. GOD BLESS AMERICA, and Canada too if we still have a country in a few years…
BREAKING NEWS – Canada hits Trump with 2-by-4 over extreme stupidity…orange man cries.
PM “elbows up” needs another million$$ plane lunch somewhere to do more of nothing!
Eliminate Trump! Problem Solved!!
giving up supply management would be political suicide
Well we should charge a 1000% export fees on Fish, Potash and Energy (including electricity) and if any retaliation on this then Canada should just shut it off and test Trumps favorite saying “we don’t need anything from Canada”

Trump is doing the right thing for the USA. He isn’t the Canadian PM. His interests are for Americans. He is doing a great job in my mind.
Not much of a mind then.
It’s going to fail in the courts, like the others. MAGA traitors like this hurting Canada. Get out traitors!
I do not and will not buy anything from the USA.
And I started this in 1984 began strip searched going to catch a flight to Asia.
I do not like the US and its insufferable attitude.
Fatso 47 is my beeeetch. Fact.
Epstein worked for Mossad and we have trump dirt galore.
He will stop starting wars for us when we say so.
Is the Strait open like trump said? LOL
Remember when Parliament was prorogued to delay the election and save the lifeless LPC? We had no representative of the federal government. Doug Ford as the head of the associations of Premiers was the one doing all the talking and trying to reach out to the brand new Trump administration.
Other countries were negotiating in good faith while we had Mark Carney, fresh off winning the party nomination to replace Trudeau, making ads with a washed up actor Mike Myers, who lives in the USA. They even referred to him as Mr Prime Minister, which you are not supposed to do during an election campaign. These two clowns continued the antagonizing of the US in that ad and coined the phrase “elbows up”, while the rest of the world was signing deals with the USA.
How did that work out for us?
So if we do not kiss Trumps butt, this is what happens. So be it, Mr. Carney is doing what is right for Canada. When are the good US citizens going to throw this felon out?
Trump is doing the right thing for the USA. He isn’t the Canadian PM. His interests are for Americans. He is doing a great job in my mind.
These problems could have been solved early on with negotiations. But noooo. Canada went elbows up. How’s that working out? Dah
News Flash Mr Turd. its NOT the Americans that are doing this ,its you and only you. Go surrender your self to Iran
What the hell are you doing
US has gone broke fighting their Epstein wars to cover up powerful people. Now they’re extorting others to try to bring in some much needed money. Don’t need to negotiate with bullies that threaten our sovereignty.
There’s the way you can get a place for a smack
trump is my beeetch just like Epstein worked for Mossad.
Fact.
Someone put extra American lettuce in fatso’s next cheeseburger.
There was a poll in the morning edition of a local rag here in BC called Castanet. The question was on how folks saw Carney’s handling of Trump.
25% said excellent, 28% said terrible, with the rest divided among other the other three answers ranging from good to poor. How the hell anyone could rate this cowards running away from trump as excellent or anything else but. people think with their d*cks and tw*ts it seems.
Canada has ball-less leaders. Idiots in suits.
Maybe it’s time for elbows down…?
Any way you look at North America….we the People are screwed.
Once Trumpy leaves, do you think the Democrat – Socialists will be any better? Remember Biden? Kamala? If you want a snapshot of what it will be like, look at New York city with Mamdani….
Canada has been decimated by the Liberals and their insane environmental and social policies over the last 12 years with no change in sight.
And this is all by design…..
Sad that all those who have sacrificed their lives in both great wars did it for nothing.
Another Elbowzo W lmfao
Funny when Carney told the elbows up crowd that Trump was bad to win the election and has done nothing since. Now Trump is playing Carney’s game and telling the American public that Canada is bad and we are upset……What goes around, comes around.
Yawn…… Anyone else ever get bored of all the orange man drama? Let him tariff all he likes. He will be dead soon enough.
Just look at the Yanks in these comments. How frail do you have to be? Enjoy the midterms, Trumpers.
CAN U JUST GO AWAY TRUMP, and F/ G DIE !!! U CO / K SUCKER
@ Dr. Dirtytoes . Sure. Liberals allowed to have that charlatan Trudeau in office for almost a decade. Don’t pretend we have good leaders in Canada
Canada deserves everything they get. They are bad trading partners and neighbors. Glad Trump is giving them a taste of their own medicine.
Trump totaly dominates Carney. Mr. Elbows Up promised a trade deal almost a year ago now. Carney has delivered nothing.
TRUMP IS SO COLD & A TERRIBLE NEIGHBOUR! HE IS CERTAINLY NOT A FRIEND!
The narcissist felon at the White House will TACO thirty days from now.
He will because more tariffs will increase the cost of goods for Americans and raise inflation.
The USA is a big bully ,tighten our belts and close the border period. Mid terms in Nov should remove our problem.
Canada needs to build pipelines to the east and west coasts and the port of Churchill, MB. Use the National Interest powers to expedite the construction of pipelines within 2 years. Bring in China to help build them. Get er done! Then slap 50% tariffs on oil being shipped to the US and tell Trump the tariff is to pay for our pipelines. The US relies on 60% of its oil being imported from Canada at a cheap price. Rip up this agreement and say, no more cheap oil Mr. Trump! Once Trump sees China building pipelines in Canada, he will suddenly do an about face and want to negotiate.
Ignore Trump until the pipelines are built. Just do it!
Then Canada says, ok Mr. Trump; it’s time to negotiate. We will open the pipeline valves; going east and west in Canada. But the valves on pipelines going south will be closed in one year if no fair and equitable CUSMA agreement is in place.
Power vs power is the only thing Trump understands. This move will also protect Canada should a new Trump emerge in the future. Simply having valves to shutoff while leaving valves open to the rest of the world is Canada’s ace in the hole!
Who cares close everything with the USA bridges cut the power and oil . The man needs to be removed an overgrown spoiled child and that is being nice.
Tick Tock Donnie the writing is on the wall for you loser. All the distraction and deflection in world isn’t going to save you from the consequences of your lies, corruption, sexual assaults and rape. It’s all catching up. Feel it yet?
If your elbows are tired of being up, now is the time to set them down.
“Canada’s supply management system for its dairy sector has long been a target of Trump’s anger over Canadian trade, but Ottawa — at Quebec’s urging — has defended the quota system.”
So Canada knew for years now that that dairy has irritated Trump since at least his first term. There are other items that we have to go to the BBC to get honest information about, quote – “Trump is accusing Canada of charging a tax on US motor vehicles and parts that are not covered under USMCA. He argues it is “unreasonable” and that Canada has discriminated against the US by not charging other countries a similar tax.”
So why isn’t Carney negotiating with Trump like the rest of the world did. Only Canada and China refuse to.
Carney would rather make antagonist speeches in Davos about “middle powers”. And he would rather travel the globe in a private jet spending over 200k in fine food, trying to secure deals with Germany and Japan that just 3 years ago he advised Trudeau that there was “no business case” for these same deals. Yet the media never presses him on this.
We have been swindled by a charlatan. The media enabled this. Elbows up indeed. They ran a TV ad where Mike Myers (who lives in the USA) incorrectly referred to Carney as Mr Prime Minister during the election campaign, to give him credibility even before he ever ran let alone won an elected office. Carney in the run for the party leadership and then into the election intentionally took credit from the work done by Jim Flaherty, a dead man unable to defend his legacy. Monetary policy is nothing compared to Fiscal policy. If one thing in government could be automated it would be the role of the BoC. He knew that he lacked the cred, and thats why he embellished his experience and stole credit from Flaherty. And the media just allowed this, and never questioned this.
We cannot win a trade war. We import 70 percent or more of our food due to our climate. We don’t have acres of citrus groves, or most other fruit. Carney should be negotiating and not antagonizing. And the media should hold him to account.
Not to worry comrades. Max Mao Carnage will fly to Davos and ask his boss Klaus Barbie what to do. Then as usual will do nothing.
Further escalation can mean only one thing… Invasion.
200% tariff on potash! They want a fight let’s give them one.
GIDA
Time to put export tax on electricity, oil,gas and fertilizer. Then see trump taco
Do some research people, don’t trust the media of Canada, they are propaganda machines for the progressive liberal government.
Carney nor le blanc ever met with the Americans about any trade deal ever, usa was looking into countries using slave labor and Canada didn’t even show up not long ago because Canada is getting too close to a communist regime, we can trade but we don’t want open borders and easy access to our country for them, China is not an ally and not even a friend.
Everything bad that has happened to Canada since carney took office is his own fault, and has been making himself and his buddies richer at the expense of Canada and Canadians, hell there are still tarrifs between provinces in Canada and carney said he would get rid of them Canada day, last year.
Canada tarrifs itself between provinces more than what Trump has done, stop with the tds, it makes people look unhinged
My father was American — traded up to Canada — wowo so many violent comments amoung relatives suffering with ego and ethno centricity.
Trumps such a looser — big little baby get him a diaper
( probably needs one )
As a Canadian I find solace and also a wry grin knowing America will never recover on the global stage. FAFO.
He’s a bully. Arrogant as all Americans. The belly button of the world. If we have nothing you need then what are you looking for you big baby?
Canadians are reaping what they have sown. No wonder they are so bitter.
I am so happy we have Carney as our PM instead of some asskissing Maple MAGAt like Poilievre. You don’t bend the knee for bullies, but all Poilievre fan boys seemed to have missed that lesson in kindergarten. Yeah, it may cause us some short term pain, but not nearly as much as giving in to Trump’s demands, which will never stop no matter what we do. Too bad we have so many terrified weak kneed idiots in this country who just want to give in to the fascist pedophiles every demand.
Canadians need to hold Carney accountable for the strategy he chose.
His speech in Davos and encouragement of anti-Americanism are questionable.
It’s interesting that Carney’s kids continue to go to US universities.
J Whitten
Another bright spark aren’t we !!!
The US only imports 2% of its total energy consumption from Canada they simply don’t need it.
Tim Weaver
Not very bright are we Tim, nobody puts tariffs on exports that would be counter productive !!!
Ford was on the right track. Tarrif our energy! Make them pay!
Carney has been MIA on forest fires.
26,000 to 27,000 Canadians go to college in the USA. You call that elbows up.
Go f#$k your self you orange faced piece of 💩
I completely get where Trump is coming from here. Carney, Ford and all the other Elbows up crowd decided they could fight fire with fire underestimating Trump and undermining the strength of the US . They have already secured other cheaper markets for the products they need
WHY ? because Carney failed to negotiate on Tariffs he blindly ignored them thinking Trump would back down .
Message to Carney real world leaders don’t back down to a weakling !!!
Canada has caused everything and if only our media told the TRUTH!!! Chinese steel going through Canada labeled Canadian and slave labour items from China going through Canada to USA nothing from media on that. China using Canada to get closer to USA and medel in elections and steel trade secrets and electronic technology Liberals not stopping it. Canada will die if we keep doing the same old and the dumb Canadian with TDS that cannot see that 11 years of liberalism has made us week and on the edge of slipping into communism which freedom disappears!!
We should raise the cost of energy & potash by 50%.
This most certainly is a trade war, cept Canada is holding aces is those 2 sectors. Only way to deal with a bully is stand out ground and punch back. Hard.
So he’s costing his citizens even more money? Umm ok. 😳
Trump see weak leadership in Canada
Carney is wearing his chicken suit elbows flapping up and down.
Bridge gone ,steel, aluminium and now this. Smoke tariffs next!
Who’s going to say that’s enough!
Me likes all the trumpets on here that want to give me head
So sad for Americans. Feel sorry for them. If Canada had a leader like fatso, he would have been gone the next day…
Every intelligent Canadian immigrated to America, jeez wonder why? That’s a mystery haaahaaa
Canadians will refuse to buy american alcohol if it does come back, then what will willie wonka do. Must be a bit demoralizing being the most hated man in the world. But too stupid to realize it.
Every intelligent Canadian emigrated to America.
Why is Alberta part of Confederation? To suffer all the trade wars due to Eastern obstinance?
Come on Canadians!!! Time to stop buying anything from U.S
Elbows Up Clowns.
Let’s just cut all exports for two weeks and see who gives in first, i.e.: oil, electricity, potash, all metals, etc.
Give the ol’ coot a touch of his own medicine!!
Stop posting propaganda so quickly
The USA gives tens of billions in subsidies to its farmers, including dairy farmers. Also I thought Trump didn’t need Canada?
Anonymous. we do understand tariffs exist around the eorld and free-trade agreements only reduce tariffs on certain goods, right?
Because I feel like you don’t know that.
But more than that, I feel like you have come very close to asserting that the assassination of Trump would be a good thing, and not criminal, and likely worthy of the death penalty when you say;
“Just think, two inches to the right and we wouldn’t even be having this conversation.”
Beyond being absolutely offensive, you are highlighting your infinite immaturity and stupidity believing that the assassination of Donald Trump would benefit anyone, as you seem to clearly suggest.
Who do you think would have won if your pitiful fantasy came true? A Democrat? Kamala Harris?
I can appreciate the affects mental illness can have on people on social media.
You need help, and I do not mean to insult you. Dial 9-8-8 in Canada if you feel like you should or could harm yourself or anyone else.
I’m so sick of trump
I have an Hammond’s Superior Atlas and Gazetteer of the word, 1945. I read in it last night on page 212: “The three thousand mile boundary between the United States and Canada is convincing proof that two great nations may live side by side in peace and harmony. For over a hundred years this boundary line-the longest in the world- has been free from fornication of any kind by either nation. In a world that has been repeatedly torn by war during the past century here is lasting evidence that national progress, pride and ambition can exist without adjoining countries being tempted to encroach on the other’s domain.”
I guess Trump is trying to kill all business with Canada. I know I refuse to pay someone to buy something from me. Mr. Carney is helping to make USA a great Country again. Why not, he lives in the USA and his family.
Because Liberals would rather say; “Look, climate change, we should have automatically increasing taxes that do not require Parliamentary approval to incease indefinitely”, (see: an inevitable impossibility). This, because CO2 is bad if it is derived from industries run by people we do not like, like Trump! Sure, it is scientific reality that CO2 is CO2, but let’s entertain the stupidity of the argument that is fossil fuel vs biogenic fuel as a determinant of which CO2 is worse.
I am going to argue, because I am not scientifically illiterate, 2 billion tons of CO2 is worse than 685 million tons of CO2, regardless of it’s source.
If it is ten times the amount of CO2 generated by lightning and the Acts of God insurance companies and government use to defer respobsibility, hey, it don’t matter. They don’t even believe in God until they accidentally insult an entire culture.
I am quite sure we have covered the fact that you no longer own what you buy and the Government Loves You. But it does love you more if you are a people that says they have a story passed down through the generations that say a man fished there once with his boy and therefore everything you can see with the eye is his, immigrants hoping to become a permanent resident or citizen, LGBTQIA (until we think of a new one)+, racialized in a way that is not as viewed by the smallest “race” on the planet that is completely open to all cultures regardless of race, aka white people.
Dundas is bad because his proposed compromise to ensure passage of THE BILL THAT ENDED SLAVERY, was a delay he selfishly wanted for himself (defemmatory/false), and not the act that ended slavery in most parts of the world after tens of thousands of years and countless empires and civilizations that came before.
A profesdsonal WNBA Basketball Coach was proven correct in her assessment that WNBA Star Angel Reese a “protected species.”.
Now, I do not consider myself the smartest person in the world, but race is not species and I feel dumber for having read people believe otherwise. While I have incomplete context and do not know of anything the Coach may well have conceded to due to lack of published information, I might have thought the inference to mean she’s a Diva, as she certainly seems like one and they certainly see themselves as superior, or as if they were a different species in terms of tge treatment they are owed.
Or, she could be horribly racist and that should come to light with full context, not inuendo.
That it was felt to be ethical to infer the intent of the statement without backing it up with evidence seems far more inappropriate to me as far as professional conduct is concerned.
This seems a continuation of cancel culture, aka fascist culture.
hahahahah time to get more beats, little Canada. You were irrelevant and now you’ll become even more irrelevant.
This has gone on long enough, get negotiating a deal as promised by the great Carney over a year ago. You can stop oil, NG, electricity but we fall into a deep recession. The middle power idea stands no chance against US or China that’s the bottom line.
When the alcohol boycott started the Americans were saying Canada is a small market and it won’t matter. Turns out they do need us.
The man who wants Americans to buy American gets upset when Canadians buy Canadian.
Trump is such an ass hat Embarrassment to Americans too , Don’t buy anything made in USA, and don’t go there ever again
Orange man is pissed he got no love at the world cup
Let the clown play his game. We should start hitting counter tariffs on hydro, oil, potash and wood. Make it so expensive for Americans to live. Canada can outlast the usa as we don’t have 40 trillion debt over our head.
We elect people to build relationships. USA is our biggest trading partner and instead of being upset, we need to work with them. Elbows up got us nowhere by working with them and at the same time diversifying our economy is the way to go. Explain that to people who will lose jobs because of these tariffs. Look at Mexicans, they got everything going against them but they work hard to build relationships with USA. We are not, we tell speeches about middle powers that have no impact or value.
Won’t it be the Americans who pay the tariffs? I haven’t bought anything US in more than a year. Even if they brought their alcohol back to our shelves I still won’t.
Don’t give in to the Untrustworthy Americans. Keep that booze off the shelves. Thugs and bullies and not our friends anymore.
We should impose an export tax on everything they need (not currently tariffed) … so tired of this nonsense
What a crapsack. Another day, another tariff. Just think, two inches to the right and we wouldn’t even be having this conversation.
Boohoo, such a loser, rot you orange fog
Oh give it up and get a life you TDS’ers. Who wouldn’t want cheap milk and bourbon?
Seriously. eff off you cretinous
Malignant POS
Can we PLEASE Collect “The Digital Services Tax” tax targeting big tech companies in the usa. That would shut trump up…. he wants to put 50% tariff on Canada over alcohol bans, dairy quotas… No problem… Let’s start collecting our Digital Services Tax.. problem solved… yes he will whine and complain, WHO CARES!!!!
We should put a tariff on Snipers that don’t get rid of this demented old fat burger mongrel!!
Cut off all energy exports to the USA.
The world desperately needs to be rid of the disease that is the US.
Trump can put tariffs. We still won’t buy American products. Even when we were looking for a dishwasher, the sales people steered us away from American made appliances. We ended up getting a Bosch (German).
Even if US alcohol shows up on Canadian shelves very few people if anyone will buy it so what is the point? The US has treated our country so badly that we are not going to forget. Just like countries all over the world the dislike for the US here continues to grow and it is all down to Trump. US standards in the dairy industry are low, Canadians do not feel safe using their products.
Good! More tariffs on Canada goods? That tells me the booze boycott is hitting Yankeedoodles hard. Keep up the booze blockage! Keep up the no-go to US summertime trips! Visit the MerryTimes! Visit Quebec! Visit the Far-far-far North! Visit the crazy-solidly-massive BC/Alberta mountains! And go anywhere in Canada! (and . . . go to Your downtown bars.)
Tomorrow is Tuesday…
Our dairy quota system protects the price of dairy. If we allow US entry, then they will undercut our prices, for a while. Then they will skyrocket as our dairy farmers cannot compete. – something like Walmart killed all our department stores, then the price went up.
Trump does not understand that the courts have deemed his tariffs illegal. I wonder how long and at what cost the explanation will form.
Can the US continue with such a deranged person in charge of them?
Canada better not cower in the corner. F Trump. This will never end of we don’t stand up for ourselves.
We don’t want American booze. Besides, we’re a sovereign country capable of making our own decisions in the wake of non-stop US attacks on us – ALL UNFOUNDED. Don’t give in Doug Ford.
