'A train wreck ... I can't stop watching': Canadians grapple with anxiety around Trump's tariff chaos

[shockedcanadian]

This is the result of an economy that has lost its best and brightest, has little innovation or entrepreneurs. Simple tariffs shatter Canadians legendary insecurity.

There are few industries that are "growth" industries, covert policing is one of them. The damage done to this country, our reputation and economy cannot be overstated.

If these people would have dealt with half of the bullying and abuses I have experienced, they wouldn't have made it.

"I get completely obsessed with the news and my anxiety goes through the roof," said Saskatoon resident Tracey Collins, 58.

Collins says she wants to stay informed, but finds the news so upsetting that she has to be careful not to become consumed by it. Lately, given the amount of change and uncertainty, Collins says she's needed extra medication for anxiety.

"My biggest fear is we are heading toward a dictatorship if Trump remains in power," she said.

What?

Canada has tariffs on the U.S and multiple restrictions on protected industries from banking to dairy. Are Americans losing sleep over this?

There are many tactics I could list that are non-tariff barriers. We even have them among each of our provinces!

.

No ... Not any I know of anyway.

I know I have mentioned it before ...
But the Canadians have been dumping government subsidized softwood timber and lumber ...
On our markets for a long time.

It's not necessarily like we are going to get torn up about Tracey Collins ...
Dealing with the chickens coming home to roost.

I would send her a bottle of some of our finest bourbon ... Maybe help her calm down a little ...
But she started talking trash about President Trump ... So, scratch that one off the to-do list.

Hang in there buddy ... It'll be okay ...
Maybe ...

I don't hate Canada, I hate abusers of power who are not held accountable.

At this point, they hate me when they should be hating the covert police apparatuses that they never hold accountable.
