  2. I can’t even track this anymore. Flip flops so much, an article a few hours old might no longer be accurate.

    Maybe that’s that’s the point. Overload you until apathy takes over.

  4. Whos against Trump ? Well everybody…except cultists.

  5. At this point, just impose tariffs to match the US, or even better…export taxes and then leave them until the US drops all new tariffs enacted under Trump. This back and forth stuff is not worth it.

  7. Go Canada Go. It’s the only way my peoples will learn

  8. I thought we were meeting Trump tomorrow to discuss our trade agreement? Or is that cancelled?

  9. As a Canadian I’m so fucking tired of reading the news every single day not knowing WTF is coming down on us again (and what we’re retaliating with).

  10. Ok, shut it all off. I’m not doing this on-again-off-again crap for 4 more years or till that orange things dies off.

  12. If only Smith in Alberta had some fucking backbone – and Saskatchewan was cool putting tariffs on potash – we’d *really* be cooking

  13. Trump: were just gonna do a little tariff… just a tiny one…

    Canada: OK we will too…

    Trump: idk why there are repercussions for my actions this is obviously a blatant attack by Canada we have to raise the tariffs…

    Canada: ok we’ll add some too.

    Trump with his tail tucked between his legs: ok we’ll go back to the original ones.

    Canada: ok we’ll go back to our original retaliation.

    Trump: ok we just gonna sneak in a little tariff…

    Canada: ….sigh

  14. I’m an American working 2 jobs. At one of them I’m a forklift operator at a freight terminal. We deal with international and national freight. My second job is a warehouse technician at a commercial furniture installation company. Since this administration, things at both jobs have slowly gotten worse. Last week things have fallen off a cliff. Jobs at the furniture installation company are drying up. Nobody wants to schedule installs while the market is this unpredictable. And the freight terminal has gotten quiet. Not much freight to move. Kind of scary seeing immediate effects on the front line. All I can do is save as much money as I can now, update my resume and wait for the inevitable.

    Edit: should also add that I voted Harris of course. Saw this shit storm coming a mile away. It’s beyond infuriating to hear some conservative coworkers saying they didn’t know this would happen when they voted Trump. Really??? He campaigned on this you morons.

    Edit 2: sorry, I’m so pissed off right now I have to rant. Worst part for me is that I’m 41 with no retirement and haven’t had health benefits most of my life. My benefits just kicked in for me (united healthcare of all places) and I’ve been using them. Because I’ve had years pile up of neglect due to lack of insurance, I was expecting to need a lot of work done. Already had a tooth extraction and set appointments to have 8 cavities filled with a deep cleaning. I also have to have eye surgery in both eyes due to being diagnosed with keratoconus during my eye exam. I haven’t even seen a regular physician yet either. The soonest they could schedule me for an exam is in May. Who knows what they’ll find and what appointments I’ll need after that. If I loose my benefits due to this trade war… I don’t even know what to do. Give up I guess.

  16. Is there a reliable website where I can see what’s being tariffed and where in real time?

  17. Remember when they accused Kamala of flip flopping?

  18. Remember when you bitched about how much money US “Gave” to Ukraine.

    Fast track a bit and the US have lost more money than they donated to Ukraine, all because trump he is the master of Economics…

  22. I love seeing all the Americans here rooting for Canada, including me.

    Fuck you Donald. I’m no longer proud to be an American…it’s actually fucking embarrassing at this point.

  24. Lol. American here. Good. If it helps people see Trump is regarded I’m for it

  25. Imagine going to war with Canada of all people. This is literally a South Park movie because it’s so fucking absurd.
