Summary
Canada will file a WTO complaint and seek redress under the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement (CUSMA) against Trump’s new tariffs, calling them a violation of trade commitments.
Trump imposed 25% tariffs on most Canadian imports, with a 10% levy on energy.
In response, Canada announced $30 billion in counter-tariffs on 1,256 U.S. goods, with a potential second round reaching $155 billion.
Officials hope the U.S. reconsiders, but further measures remain an option.
I’m sure Trump is sh-sh-shaking.
The resistance is strong
While they battle it out, we all pay the higher prices. For no reason whatsoever.
It’s a ploy to distract everyone while he robs the country blind and implements the dictatorship.
Hitler took 53 days. Trump’s on track to break that record, because criminally corrupt authoritarians didn’t hold a majority in the Weimar Republic.
Imagine believing that a genocidal empire cares about trade laws… I mean… Sure they care about trade laws much more than genocide… But still.
