    Used the Buy Canadian app on grocery trip today. It worked fine.

    It's the one downloadable via Apple and Google stores with the beaver and maple leaf logo

    Tearing down interprovincial trade restrictions has the potential to increase Canadian GDP somewhere in the range of plus 3-to-7-percent

    Change my mind
    "non-zero" "/or Panama" doing all the heavy lifting

    When JT is done using this to unite Canada you guys can take Trump to court and get it over with: he can't create tariffs without an emergency and there is no such thing as an emergency that can just be put off for a month.

    But seriously: boycott American social media and tech. Switch to EU if not Canadian. American companies have captured the regulators so much we're all better off elsewhere, and leaving is the only fix. Besides, they're the ones financing and profiting from your trauma--and now your ketchup chip purchases.

    Great aquaseal XXX ref MV - I see a lot of your points.. But.. but from the north its hard to see the policy and we have to assume its a chorus of idiots in charge. There is a big group of tariff supporters and though they didn&#39;t mention Canada specifically it seemed that NAFTA was a test case. Maybe they misjudged or maybe Trump wanted to go big and ruined the plan? Canada had to do a tit or tat tariff exchange to call the US bluff. Other wise the tariffs would have been enacted as there was no feedback on the border measures. So it was a good plan to at least show that there will be pain on both sides. It makes no sense to tariff raw materials from a country that buys manufactured goods from you? Then the last minute you didn&#39;t understand its not a trade war but border security, yes we know for Trump to impose tariffs without Congress he needs a manufactured security reason, but border security from the Canadian perspective is just to pick a fight. And a 25% tariff with such integrated economies is almost an act of war. This doesn&#39;t line up any of your logical policy objectives. The result of this will be that NA energy security and integration will be lessened. Canadians across the county want to be alot less tied to the US by building pipelines so less oil goes to the US and overall a lot less trade with US. I think Canada should include the 10-20 billion to be spent on pipelines as defense spending. Increasing defense spending will not be a hard sell in Canada now but spending $ on US weapon systems will be. CascadeLuke- we realize you have only so much bandwidth with what you are dealing with and I think only started paying attention at the last minute to the tariff ramifications.</p>

    <p>
    so the point of declaring an emergency was so Trump didnt have to get it&nbsp; thru Congress where he holds a very slim Majority</p>
    <p>
    &nbsp;</p>
    <p>
    do you understand how Tarrifs work, its a import tarrif so whoever brings&nbsp; the product into America pays the tarrif and probably passes it on to the end loser</p>
    <p>
    &nbsp;</p>
    <p>
    Trump thinks the Canadians pay the tarrif&nbsp; according to Bolton&nbsp; explained to him in simple terms that USA will pay the tarrifs not Canada</p>
    <p>
    &nbsp;</p>
    <p>
    so Tarrifs ( alberta crude/ softwood lumber for LA) can just go on for ever with USA paying as I understand it</p>

    I don't think the JT thing on Trump really wants to Annex Canada has much to do with the surge in the liberal party fortunes. Mark Carney is getting a lot of exposure and looks very statement like and seems to have a plan for dealing with US though its not that different than Pierre Pinhead.

    On reciprocity - The only goods that I know that are not freely traded are dairy and poultry ( Canada's supply management system) , financial services ( can't be done remotely) ,clothing has to have NA textile content , think that is protection to US textile producers, Softwood lumber - protection of US land owners and protections on cultural industries ( Canada) . There are restrictions in Canada on ownership of telecoms and airlines maybe some others

    @ ice- lol! It's all just spitballing, hyperbole, and bullshit. We're not invading Canada. This is just random shit to spin ppl into insanity, which if you look at the posts here, is working.

    Maybe all this is a planned attempt to flush out lefties through mass suicide like hail bop. Lefties just giving up and offing themselves en masse. Who knows. Thoughts and prayers.

    Perhaps. But we've got to consider the worse. You have no idea how visceral the negative reaction is to becoming part of the USA.

    This is unreal, this relationship is one sided. Many us businesses like banks are prohibited from operating in Canada. We’ve got TD buying up everything etc.

    But Americans are the bad guys? You Canucks play hardball.

    Hard to imagine anything more pathetic than a grown adult literally threatening another grown adult to drive across the country for a fight.

    Some real winning here.
