Enact 100% tariffs and completely destroy our economy. They can afford to stomach some massive pain short term and still survive. We can’t. And if you think the US would permit us to unilaterally allow people in major metropolitan centres freeze, cause chaos to their economy and essentially shut down civilization on the eastern seaboard etc I don’t know what to say. I’m quite certain that would be equivalent to terrorism in many eyes in the US and they would act accordingly.
