“We’ve been good neighbors, but they haven’t paid their fair share,” [Bob] Campagna said. “They need our products, and we need theirs, but not as much.”

“I personally like that [Trump’s] stirring the pot and making stuff happen,” [Mike Beaulieu] said. “The tariffs might last for just a little bit. But he might settle some stuff.”

"The death of human empathy is one of the earliest and most telling signs of a culture about to fall into barbarism." -Hannah Arendt

Imagine hating LGBTQ people and women having rights so much that you actively look forward to a trade war that is most likely to result in your own poverty.

How bad is the American education system that the word tariff doesn't immediately inspire anger at national leadership? Tariffs aren't foreign policy and don't benefit consumers or companies.

I feel that Canada always gets the brunt of the abuse from America. Mulroney and Raegan’s “Free Trade” agreement opened the door and allowed the U.S. to enter our borders and steamroll us into oblivion with our economy and made us heavily dependent on them.

We used to have lots of our own competition up here that was uniquely Canadian. Now it’s all American mega corps that have swooped in, bought up everything that used to be Canadian and is now just a U.S. owned company.

Try and not shop at a U.S. owned store. It’s becoming very difficult.

But Canadas the problem according to Trump.

Canada needs more competition and trade, but not with America.
