​@ruthmcmahon5465 except PP will be able negotiate with him, international policies are all connected. Unfortunately Trump absolutely dispise Trudeau.

American here... Maybe Canada can listen, find common ground, and work with the president elect to make both find an acceptable solution to benefit both countries. We voted for border security and their is a new sheriff in town - not the same old pushover. It appears you have a major housing crisis on your hands to worry about anyway.

Trump is so much revengeful.

[@Freedomjustice-DC]

Why is looking out for your own country revengeful???? If the border is not secure and turdboy will do nothing about it, then I guess he needs to be forced to clean up Canadas border. Whats wrong with this?

Lumber for houses and steel for construction just got more expensive for Americans. And what about the wheat, barley, and canola? And what about Canadian liquor? Taxing liquor more than right now might be the last straw for many Americans.

[@puckitguy1]

All of Canada and Mexico should stop accepting the America dollar in their respective countries. We have been doing it for them for years but Canadians have never been able to the same. It's time to stop playing nice with Trump during this time. If they do want to use their dollar in Canada it should only be accepted at par.

I can't stand that guy. Way to screw your neighbour.

[@peterbrix1155]

He has put it out there. You guys are talking about it. He knows how the business world works. Maybe your prime minister should stop dancing with all the 16 year olds at the swift concert and actually work on Canada

Time to add tariff on USA products coming into Canada.

[@charu002]

We should collectively not buy usa products. Never make our grid energy become an import

[@duanedrouillard2495]

Maybe you want to pay a tariff. Think of what your saying. Best thing you could do, in my opinion is to buy whatever you need that doesn't come from the usa

[@lepotdefleur9906]

@@duanedrouillard2495 Yup, the food part in the winter is kinda problematic at the moment though.

[@polishtheday]

@@lepotdefleur9906No it isn’t. I don’t buy American food products, even in winter. We can grow our own in greenhouses, freeze what we’ve grown in the summer and trade with other countries. Just start reading labels at the grocery store. And if a product doesn’t have a label clearly explaining its origin, talk to the store manager.

[@chrisorrill7183]

Do you know how tarrifs actually work?

[@mihailmilenkov6223]

There wont be a big impact, Canada will export to other countries more competitively pricing their imports and that will be the end of it if this goes through, USA will lose on importers or foot the higher bill, ultimately business for Canada will go on and the USA will suffer

[@MoldMeister]

They want Trudeau out.

[@sharona7428]

And it’s a bad thing. A conservative Canadian government and a Republican American president like Trump. We would be screwed

[@S.W.A]

So do we.

[@Maphisto86]

LOL! Trudeau is not what this is about. Trump may like Poilievre more or he may not. Doesn't matter because Trump is pretending to play hardball to his base and thinking other nations will foot the bill. He has no idea how tariffs actually work. By the way, has Mexico sent the money for that wall yet?

[@anthonysmz3]

Lot's of economic majors in here saying to tariff products coming in should solve the problem. 2/3rd of our GDP is EXPORTS and 1/3rd is imports. How about everybody here use grade 3 math and see which is the bigger number. Maybe, just maybe I'd bet securing our border and jailing actual criminals might cost less than the potential 10's of billions of dollars /year resulting from this tariff.
