United States escalates trade war with Canada following Palestine stance

Doing the right thing is always de-rigeur. Fuck Trump and Fuck the US.

This is the least Canada can do, Canada’s continued weapons shipments to Israel make us directly complicit in genocide, while it's dressed up as diplomacy.

Unites States can escalate going and fucking themselves!

And here we see why bending the knee to a sociopath like Trump never works. They will only experience validation for their previous bullying, and keep escalating regardless of whether they "won" or not.

I sincerely hope Carney tells Trump to stuff it and come back once he figured out trade agreements are relationships - they are supposed to provide mutual benefit to the parties involved.

Or, even more basically - tell him to first figure out what he really wants to achieve before making demands, because even that seems a cognitively impossible ask of the current US administration (see: https://www.reuters.com/business/japan-voice-concern-over-us-trade-deal-inconsistency-pm-ishiba-says-2025-04-21/).

US is using its leverage to protect Israel from consequences of doing genocide.

America first!

That’s a pretty big endorsement
