These are just reciprocal tariffs so their original tariffs still apply to us?

I think we've always disliked the US, but we just tolerated them before. There's a reason Americans travel abroad and use Canada flags to misrepresent themselves. But that tolerance is pretty much gone now.

So other than the auto tariffs which apparently kick in at midnight, he’s delaying the broader Canada/Mexico tariffs again? Jesus H Christ, what a f’n clown show.

I'm almost certain that the MapleMAGA's pleas to calm things down until after the election have been heard.

We're going to elect Carney - because we're not imbeciles - and then we'll face the wrath.

Maybe when he sent off the to get his props done, he assumed Canada would be the 51st state by Liberation day. Wouldn't put it past him that Liberation Day was actually supposed to be the day Canada bent the Knee.

Apparently he seems to think that sales taxes (like VAT, or GST in our case) are tariffs on US goods..
