-—All they give us -—

Well we buy lots of oil and lumber and other stuff.

People here lke to whine about Mexican trucks but I spend lots of time on the road and see almost 0 Mexican trucks. Canadiantrucks are plentiful they deliver and then pick up. We have good trade with Canada.

“They are used to pry open markets from which your own products are defended.

US companies pay 25% for every car sold in China. Ergo, we sell no cars in China. China pays no such tariff, nor does Europe.

That’s going to change.”

It probably won’t because GM makes and sells over one million Buicks a year in China.

Canadian mining stocks are crashing, HARD. I guess this means we can reopen the Northern Range iron mines again, creating good- paying AMERICAN JOBS again!

I'm not worried about Canada putting tariffs on hockey pucks. I'm worried about tariffs on any new episodes of The Great White North.

The problem is that many companies in Canada are in cahoots with the Chinese and others - they import products (like steel), rebrand it as Made in Canada, then ship it off to the US.
We’re not stupid, and neither is Trump.

Hmmm.... Diseased Snow Birds?

As a matter of interest, We camped in a big RV camp on the South Texas Gulf Coast and the whole place was full of Canadiens. Every day at 4:00 the party and the drinking started.

So, if we do it, it’s a tariff. But if Canada does it, it’s a trade barrier. Journalism wouldn’t be journalism if they weren’t trying to manipulate you somehow.
