U.S. going ahead with tariffs on Canada and other countries - March 4th
Keep up the boycott.
When you see American brands running 'We are Canadian too' ads you know its working.
The best response to US tariffs is to make free trade deals with UK, EU and others. Free trade will win over protectionism. Protectionism is just dumb and counterproductive.
I agree. Luckily it seems as if that’s starting to happen. It could be nice to see a closer tie in with the EU, but o don’t see that happening for a long time if ever.
We need more trading partners that simple are not America.
We have the resources the world needs. Let’s sell them to the world, and bring industry here at the same time.
I don’t understand. We already have a free trade agreement with Europe that has been coming online over the last several years. Why do you think we won’t expand it?
He said that last time.
If they as low walk it they can still scare companies to break supply chains without driving up prices.
We should enforce retaliatory tariffs as long as there’s a threat of tariffs.
The real retaliatory tariffs would be expert tariffs on oil, electricity, and potash.
Yeah, "hey, we figured you forgot to charge the 25% so we thought we'd be nice and do it for you".
We more than fulfilled Trump's demands, and he pushes through anyway.
Stop trusting this guy. The next time he demands something, we need to firmly say "NO."
God damned right!!
Other than the honourary title of "fentanyl czar" we were already doing everything that he demanded. The only thing that actually happened was that he got to take credit for deals that Biden made.
Rollback all concessions we made.
America already gets a discount on the oil we ship. Turn off that faucet and add a 40% tariff to oil. Let's see how the orange magot likes his base screaming bloody murder over paying $10 per gallon of fuel.
100% markup on exported hydro. Pull of the kid gloves, fuck this guy. Get at us if you have a problem, FAFO
We should be aggressively creating trade deals with other countries. Starting aggressively building pipelines, creating supply chains etc to Asia, Africa, and Europe. Invest heavily in technology and increasing productivity with ai and automation. Turn us into the super state we always should have been. Let the us turn into a protectionist Christian white nightionalist nightmare and take all the talent they want to turn down because of racism.
And brain drain campaigns to lure all the great talent from the US.
I agree, except with the pipelines, and I am in and worked on the expansion project, and it was fucked up beyond belief, there should be an investigation on what entry in but there won't be. Not a waste of money but holy fuck it was it of control.
The best thing about this situation is that BC has pipelines and LNG ports to sell oil and gas to Asia. It is the best defense we have against the US.
If I was in charge, I would green-light every pipeline and port I could right now. We need a direct energy line to Europe.
i'll wait and see : they already cancel at the last minute a month ago, i don't believe it anymore.
Pets the trade war begin
With China
With Mexico
With Canada
With the entirety of Europe
Yeah, USA, you're not going to live to tell this tale. You're a big and strong bully but you're picking a fight with the entirety world and we will fuck you
you're not going to live to tell this tale
You say that as if that isn't exactly the goal. The useful idiot is handing the world to Putin, at least in Putin's mind
K.
I will continue to avoid US products whether you do it or not, orange monkey.
Boycotting all things American currently. Hopefully Europe and Canada work together here.
Are the tariffs "definitely happening this time" until Canada promises to do something they already agreed to again?
And this is why you don't give in to his demands, he'll fuck you over Anyway
