Summary
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced retaliatory tariffs after Donald Trump confirmed 25% tariffs on Canadian goods and 10% on energy, set to take effect at 12:01 a.m. Tuesday.
Trump justified the move by linking it to fentanyl smuggling concerns.
Trudeau called the tariffs “unjustified” and imposed 25% tariffs on $155 billion in U.S. goods, with $30 billion effective immediately and the rest in 21 days.
He warned of price hikes and job losses in the U.S., arguing the move violates Trump’s own trade agreement from his last term.
Unfortunately Americans are convinced they can’t do anything about it, so they don’t.
I vote, I protest, I make convincing arguments to family members to not vote for morons…what else we got? I mean, within the boundaries of the law, of course
Spoken like a true American.
It sounds like you’ve completely exhausted all options. Anyone can see you have taken your civic duty to defend American FREEDOM seriously. No one has done any more than you have. History will record your deeds and future generations will say, “He voted, protested, and talked to his family. We owe him the FREEDOM we have today.” Statues will be erected. Schools will be renamed. You are remarkable. I’m honoured to be in the presence of such a great person.
Although…
Reading these “History Books” it seems that some of your ancestors did find a few more things they could do. I understand if you haven’t read “History Books” as they’ve probably been burned in your country. Sad.
The boundaries of the law exist to protect the status quo, which is why every important movement has been illegal.
The law also exists to keep people like me in jail (I’m a racial minority, low income, and a history of violence), I could sneeze wrong near a cop and get arrested.
Americans are very proud about the second amendment
