Canada and Mexico hit back after Trump signs order for punishing tariffs

  • YES. Can we listen to this? We do have complications of not being close to other trading partners, but this is a more reasoned approach that has worked.

  • Examine CUSMA and do the opposite of what the US wanted...

  • Woah man, slow up with all the downvotes. This is a suggestion to think strategically instead of doing a reactionary show to "look strong". The reactionary show will fuck up small business and the majority of Canadians. Well thought out tariffs and other targeted measures will be more effective.

  • Not promoting violence but was wondering if there is a deathpool... You know a place where you can place bets. A very specific deathpool. Perhaps someone can start this game as um...a joke...you know some kind of fun joke. A fun site where we can gather and joke about the deaths of dictators.

    Trudeau announces 25 per cent retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods starting Tuesday

  • I had to chuckle about this comment. I said that same thing in a rant to family and friends last night including using the words "for pennies on the dollar"

  • I wish this comment (merc's comment) would get bumped to the top of every post related to the tariffs. Tit for tat tariffs is stupid with predictable results. Strategic tariffs and other targeted mean of retaliation are better. Why is there only a 10% tariff on oil? Because the US needs Canada's oil. You fuck with our economy we fuck with the resources we give you at a discounted rate. Look at CUSMA (hehe. or NAFTA or whatever broken trade agreement that was) and target the industries that the (US) wanted to protect.

    And for people using the tired fight analogies - just because someone tries to punch you in the face doesn't mean you punch them back in the face. You have already been training to kick them in the fucking balls.

    Tit for tat tariffs is just political posturing for weak leadership.

    The Republican-controlled US government has decided to impose a 25% tax on American imports of goods from Canada

  • Yarrrrrrr. I couldn't agree more

  • Well thought out TARGETED tariffs. Tariffs generally hurt us all. Us being the 99%. Stupid general tariffs benefit the 1% who can buy up the mess made from tanking the economy. Also, TransplantedSconie makes some great points

    Canada 'will stand up to a bully', says Mark Carney

  • Yes. This. Plus let's finally kill off Netflix in Canada. Who even uses that shithole of a service anymore?

  • Focus your anger on the American companies who have the money to buy up the mess after the economy tanks. Apple, Amazon, Google, Microsoft.

    Pirate! Distribute! Destroy!

    Also... don't buy their shit.
