So apparently the tariffs will be applied this Saturday. Can oir politicians (especially Smith) stop deluding themselves that this has anything to do with the border and fentanyl or whatever bull#### excuse it is this week. The guy obviously is doing whatever he can in order to enrich his friends, make money via tariffs and then cut income taxes to the wealthy. The people who will be left paying the bill are the impoverished masses while Musk and the rest of the oligarchs acquire more wealth.
At this point the only thing that can be done is to buckle in for the negative impacts to the Canadian economy and better support Canadian made companies and products. Part of me thinks that they should go for broke and put an export tax on items going to the states that are required ie oil and energy. The damage is going to be done why not acquire wealth from yourself in the process and then distribute it accordingly.
