This is wonderful news, the goal here must be to ensure that the American consumer and American businesses suffer as much as possible. higher tariffs on steel and aluminum only further that goal, Canada must embark on a campaign of maximum suffering
Really wishing the California High-Speed Rail Authority had been able to place a purchase order for 119 miles of rail back under Biden

I can’t wait for Doug Ford to replace provincial income taxes with energy export surcharges 🥵🫳🏼🔥
They tell me “sir you can do that”
Would it take a constitutional amendment to remove tariffs from presidential discretion?

Tariffing them at 25% already made Canadian steel and aluminum much less competitive in the American market. Doubling the tariffs isn’t going to cost the Canadians that much more.
Add the law of diminishing returns to the list of economic concepts Trump doesn’t understand.
we don’t your Steel
Question: has Trudeau made clear to Trump that they will stop with the energy duties only if they get guarantees that Trump will stop with the monthly tariff theater? I do believe I read that was their plan some time ago, but dunno if they said anything when announcing the energy duties.
