US Tariffs The retaliation to the Trump imposed tariffs will impact the US in freight costs added to the sale price of the product to the importing country. Trump will move the country past recession and approach depression reducing the value of the dollar on world markets.

The party of free speech?

Such a shock to see that the folks who screamed the loudest about being “censored” during the Covid pandemic are now cheering on & applauding Trump’s censorship. It’s almost as if they were never really free speech advocates at all (“free speech for me but not for thee”)—Who could have predicted it?

Trump’s tariffs are driving up prices for us, while driving down demand for U.S. exports in Canada and Mexico. This why you don’t trust your country’s economic policies to someone who bankrupted 5 casinos.

It is a betrayal. Not just of our allies, partners, neighbors, but of our dearest friends. The emotional weight of this travesty should hit hard.

Canada isn’t a national security threat and it’s also not really a source of fentanyl but besides that sure makes sense

I remember not that long ago when the audio went out during the Star Spangled Banner at an NHL game in Toronto, the Mapple Leafs fans in the stands stood up and finished it for our players. That depth of friendship and mutual respect, Trump has killed in less than two weeks.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Prices are about to shoot through the roof because Trump decided to talk out of his ass about making Canada a state and the Mexican President told him to fuck off. That's it. Don't dare fucking cry or blame Biden for any of it. This is the Republican recession.

Absolutely agree that countries globally need to put a stake through Tesla and Twitter’s heart immediately. Cut off the beast’s funding streams.

Wondering how you can make an impact as Trump and Musk to dismantle the federal government? Check out DemCast’s weekly partner newsletter, with opportunities for engagement from grassroots organizations across the country! Pass it on.

Good job, posters. That’s a lot of posts.

Sad when Canadian elected officials care more about the US economy and workers than Trump, the President.

Canadian hockey star speaks out:

The stock market is going to be a bloodbath on Monday from the tariffs. Hedge funds are shorting everything right now. It's going to be black Monday.

One two three four I declare a trade war.

I'm not saying Trump is a foreign asset, I'm not saying that. What I'm saying is: Who does it serve to have the US in a self-own tariff war with its closest allies and trade partners

JUSTIN TRUDEAU ANNOUNCES RETALIATORY MEASURES AGAINST THE UNITED STATES Canada is imposing a 25% tariff on $155 billion worth of American goods in response to U.S. trade actions. $30 billion worth of American goods will face immediate tariffs starting on Tuesday. 1/

I’m ashamed of my country. I’m almost glad my father didn’t live to see this. My father was Canadian, he died in Florida in 2017. He didn’t have to deal with Trump for long and I’m thankful.

OPINION: "People from most declining democracies and republics throughout history must have felt something similar. I’ve read letters from pre-WWII Germans who moved from 'we’re worried' to 'we’re scared,'" Kimberly Griffin writes. https://buff.ly/3EcUw1B

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn

These are the people who lecture us about IQ. THESE ARE THE PEOPLE

How to push Canada even further into the arms of China and India.

Trump basically seems like a late 90s Boris Yeltsin: Out of it, enriching himself and his family as much as he can, and letting the broligarchy run roughshod over the government

Good to know I'll be spending the coming months figuring out how I get access to cbc

it's like smoot hawley all over again

Once you understand that Trump is a common Mafia thug, all his bribe-taking, grifting, shitcoin rug pulls, money laundering & assorted protection rackets become comprehensible. Bada Bing!

The NTSB says it will no longer email news outlets or reporters with notifications of upcoming press conferences, including those on plane crashes in Washington and Philadelphia. Instead, all notifications will be made on X. We're filing a FOIA to find out more about the change in policy.

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

We are literally under attack. We are experiencing the fight or flight response, a physiological reaction that occurs in response to a perceived harmful event, attack, or threat to survival. Practice self-care: breathe, meditate, rest, have a good cry. Then FIGHT 🔥🔥 #Voices4Victory #ProudBlue

I'm just waiting to hear what my former college classmate [for a short time] Trudeau is going to say at 9 pm and then logging off. It's been a long day.

Nova Scotia exacting real pain.

When I saw this snapping turtle in shallow water, with the light making magic - I knew it was a once in a lifetime moment ... 🌿

We women knew exactly where this was headed all along. Easing of rules on the edges is first. Next, “it wasn’t so bad” when you go to the Authorities, does No, mean No, rape kits done away with, is it assault? Next, the Radical Rapist Republicans start assaulting us. With no repercussions.

Stating the obvious: tariffs are a regressive tax on the poorest Americans. A company pays the tariff, and raises their prices to get that money. That price is paid by the consumer. Duh

hmm, where can i bet on the odds of a catastrophic economic collapse this year?

Trump³⁴ says he is enacting a #TrumpTax (aka #TrumpTariffs) to stop drug trafficking Really?
