Hold the line. Donβt capitulate to monthly pauses. Whatever is being asked will never be enough. The idiot wants to tariff our exports for the cash, then he wants to annex us and take the resources for himself for free.

Trump backed off with automotive tariffs today (for 30 days) because the big 3 wanted him to. I am curious if the steal and aluminum will also be backed off of for the time being. We here in Canada need to say fuck that shit we can get our cars from elsewhere we are going to tax the shit out of the parts being made here. I know this is not a good idea but we cannot have Trump pulling this shit.
Drop the tariffs and we'll allow US banks to operate in Canada, allow American cars to be sold here, ban all exports of fentanyl, and stop booing your national anthem.
US banks are already allowed. They just don't like our regulations (that protect us against a 2008 style financial crisis)
I think the joke is that we already do all of those things (except the stop booing part)
Also that we might otherwise stop doing some of those things.
We may also be lying about offering to stop booing. Canadians have gone hard into patriotism because of how moronic Trump is.
You made me appreciate Trudeau you fuckers, and I still loathe what he's (not) done with election reform.
and stop booing your national anthem.
I take it that's the bargaining chip? Because please do go on
It may seem like a small thing but it's nicely symbolic of America losing its international reputation and standing. At this rate its its soft power will be demolished within the year, and its economic and military might will soon follow.
We don't export fentanyl.
43 lbs of fentanyl was seized at the CAN-US border (north to south) in 2024, which is less than 1% of America's total fentanyl seizures. Source
So technically we do illegally export fentanyl.
I am sure the fentanyl used for medical purposes we do, unless we import it all from the US?
Legal fentanyl isn't what this is all about, from what I can tell. Fentanyl in a hospital setting is not the issue.
