Economics…

Higher USD means more revenues from exports. Always Canada’s big advantage that US could only hope for. You better be wary of some impending very volatile falllout.

I’m sure trump isn’t worried about tariffs from a 3rd world country.

The tariffs are a (frank)ing joke but Canada deserves this for being entirely dependent on the US

You’re far too caught up in the present. No knowledge of historical economic facts. For a start read up on what govt policies led up to the Great Depression.

That's a flavour of the day excuse. Distracted from the reality of the most dangerous problem we’re only beginning to face.

One silver lining of the cap going up huge for 3 years to come is 11.6m can hide much better. Lessens the myth it’ll age well. At least the OEL buyout begins to pale against that. A bargain even.

I didn't want to weigh in on the whole tariff thing but since it keeps being brought up and I'm in the know being on the local riding associations for both the federal and provincial Conservative parties, here is the truth:

- Canada cannot win a trade war with the US, we lack the manufacturing base in order to make the goods that we import from the US.

- Dollar for dollar tariffs sound great in theory, but only work when the country you're tariffing against can't source materials you're tariffing easier from somewhere else.

- Buying Canadian also sounds very good in theory, but the sad fact is, the US provides us with better quality goods and services, unless you want us to completely jump into the arms of the Communist Chinese who are salivating over this.

- Trade deals with other countries takes time and requires them ramping up their manufacturing and construction and simply due to shipping costs/logistics, may end up being even more expensive than what we normally would get from the US

- In the short term, this is going to hurt and hurt us badly, and it was completely unnecessary because we knew this was coming and yet we barely did anything to secure our borders and work with the US to try and work something out.

- Trump has both houses of Congress and has the power to push his agenda through, any hopes of us being able to do anything about this is not going to happen until the midterms of 2026 where the public might be tired of his antics, but don't count on it.

- If you want Trump to get rid of the tariffs, then start by bringing back the Port Police and have it under the control of the federal government instead of private interests, the Port of Vancouver is mostly owned and operated by the Communist Chinese government and you know where the fentanyl that Trump is so upset about comes from? China... through our ports that THEY own.

All of this but some omissions. It is not about winning a trade war. Dollar for dollar tariffs created the Great Depression. The USA is reliant on Canadian energy. Venezuela is anti American & wouldn’t help. Mexico every reason to not help. The threat of selling to China is a bluff to shake some reality into a dolts head. Lastly working with the Americans doesn’t work. Softwood lumber dispute I cite as one example they don’t really give a shlt. As long as they get what they want is all that matters. This is no revelation.

He tells the truth, we’ve been lied to for centuries and the truth will come out on mainstream eventually.
