before the eighties, there were tons of tarifs between canada and the US, and we survied and even did very well. Let's not forget that Americans will also be hurting themselves. Yes, they are much bigger than mexico and canada combined, and we will hurt more, but they will hurt also. That is why we had Nafta, because it hurts everybody. But Donald dosn't care about that.Canada is now a lawless country and it will be over quickly. Canadians of all stripes do not understand how crippling the tariffs are going to be, Mexico will drop first, and Canada shortly after.
The automobile industry centred in Southern Ontario is expected to collapse within a week of the tariffs being introduced. The Ontario unemployment rolls are expected to double from 600,000 to 1.2 million. All of this is occurring during a time of prorogation, nothing, I repeat nothing, is being done by Parliament.
Canadians are in dire straits and don't even know how fucked they are.
I was asking myself: why is Donald doing this? Why is he attacking ithe US's closest neighbors and allies? Canada, Mexico, Panama, Columbia, etc...then it hit me. He wants to be like Putin. He wants to go on the war path, he wants to ''attack'' weaker countries...I previously said I was not stressed by this, but I have changed my stance...I think this is going to get really ugly before it gets better
