I can't see this lasting too long, American's will be in world of hurt as well. How is California, the Carolina's and Florida supposed to rebuild without Canadian lumber. Food prices, which are already a point of contention, are set to increase dramatically. Mexico is the top exporter of food to America, plus farmers need Canadian Potash and Mexican labour, then you have to add in the increase in fuel prices. All economies will suffer resulting in a quick negotiation to eliminate these needless tariffs.
