The stock market is crashing, fuel prices will increase alongside vehicle prices, food prices will go up, and that's going to cause major problems in his popularity.
Get him to the table, negotiate a deal that he "wins" and life goes on. Like a true narcissist he will find someone else to beak at.

I hope you're right and that this is how it plays out. I'm just so sick of the constant uncertainty and bulls***. Either get back to the negotiating table and let's hammer out a new USMCA. Or just slap your stupid tariffs on for good and and leave them there so we can all move on with our lives and start diversifying our economy. Enough with the on again/off again crap.
Also, notice he didn't mention fentanyl once in his last two tweets regarding Canada. He's now back to his completely fabricated "$200 billion" trade deficit number and that he's mad that we don't pay enough for NATO.
