It was just signed. “10% on all imports from China and 25% on imports from Mexico and Canada — America’s largest trading partners — except for a 10% rate on Canadian oil.”
“Trump has found his weak link in Canada. He didn’t need to look far. She delivered herself to him.”
Danielle Smith is a traitor.
Shameful, but when I see my first Alberta or Washington plate in BC vandalized with Fuck You I’m going to smile inside.
If you vandalize someones vehicle in response to a politicians actions, I hope you get punched in the lips.
Prospect?
That fact that they’re only putting 10% on oil and exempting other forms of energy is a sign for us Canadians that it’s also their achilles heel, and adding an export tariff on those would definitely pass a message, although a retaliatory increase in tariffs would be certain.
Curious to see what’s going to be the response.
Reminder that while these tariffs are the big news item, focus extremely hard on what isn’t being today. Work within your communities and harass the fuck out of your politicians, Republican AND Democrat. Maintenance will be the word for at least two years.

How does the President have such wide control over government spending when that’s supposed to be Congress’s constitutional responsibility?
Because it’s on Congress to push back when another branch oversteps its power, and more than half of it is actively cheering on the destruction of our society. I can’t speak to whether we’ll have free and fair midterms, but if we do, electing leftists to congress would be vital to stymieing the damage quickly.
But, yeah, who knows. That’ll take at least 2 years. MAGA has already done incalculable damage, and it’s been 2 weeks.
