Canada attacks America in Ottawa

[1srelluc]

Brazil, Argentina and about 100 other Countries will just restructure where the US isn't in the mix. Name me one thing that the US produces that isn't produced anywhere else? The reason we get to export what we do is because we do it cheaper. By raising the prices (yes that is what a tariff really is) then the rest of the world just trades with itself.

I could care less if they buy their rubber dog puke from each other.

Our border with Canada is among the safest and most secure in the world despite its huge distance, and has been for over 200 years.

Canadian bacon has no reason to live and it should be mugged when it dares to stroll across the tomato-ey surface of a pizza.

That made me laugh out loud

And you won't have a market for your own rubber dog puke so you will have to learn to eat your own rubber dog puke. Except the US imports rubber so I guess you will have to fine dine on plastic dog pukes.

Reading all this "Canada is our best friend!" on social media. Yeah, if your best friend says nice words to you while they rob you blind.

So we go from the "white guilt navel gazing" of Ds to the "blame everyone else for our problems" of Rs. Maybe someday we can try sanity.

Damn, you are going to be busy. You do mean all of them, right?

No, just the hot women.

Canada is honoring the free trade agreement Trump negotiated with it. Trump is breaching it for no reason.

Free trade agreement has made it possible for Canada to become our biggest supplier of crude oil, automotive parts and cars.
Charging a tariff on Canada will hurt their bottom line.
Trump is doing this to cut down on our energy dependence from foreign sources.

Seems too many people in Washington are making money on the side to weaken our position in trade with countries like Canada and Mexico.

Free Trade Pros and Cons​

Pros

• Allows consumers to access the cheapest goods on the world market.
• Allows countries with relatively cheap labor or resources to benefit from foreign exports.
• Under Ricardo's theory, countries can produce more goods collectively by trading on their respective advantages.

Cons

• Competition with foreign exports may cause local unemployment and business failures.
• Industries may relocate to jurisdictions with lax regulations, causing environmental damage or abusive labor practices.
• Countries may become reliant on the global market for key goods, leaving them at a strategic disadvantage in times of crisis.

Free Trade Agreement (FTA): Definition, How It Works, and Example

A free trade agreement reduces barriers to imports and exports between countries by eliminating all or most tariffs, quotas, subsidies, and prohibitions.

We can easily survive a tariff war with both Canada and Mexico.....Let's see who blinks first.

Both of them are dependent on trade with the US.

Canada sells most of their oil to us and Mexico specializes in ripping off Americans. Half the their GDP is money sent from the US into Mexico. The Mexican government is probably making money off of drug exports and illegal immigration. Trump is trying to put a stop to that.

Sorry, but you are contractually obligated to fuck all of them if you wish to exclaim "Fuck Canada".

Pros

• Allows consumers to access the cheapest goods on the world market.
• Allows countries with relatively cheap labor or resources to benefit from foreign exports.
• Under Ricardo's theory, countries can produce more goods collectively by trading on their respective advantages.

Cons

• Competition with foreign exports may cause local unemployment and business failures.

Yep. Competition requires that our businesses remain competitive. This is a pro, not a con.

• Industries may relocate to jurisdictions with lax regulations, causing environmental damage or abusive labor practices.

Yep. Keeps us from going overboard with regulations. Also a pro.

• Countries may become reliant on the global market for key goods, leaving them at a strategic disadvantage in times of crisis.

Which prevents wars. Another pro.

It is kind of funny watching so-called conservatives turn against free trade.

A hockey game broke down into chaos as rabid Canadians booed America during the playing of the national athnem.

This is just really unacceptable, considering the long alliance.

Time to put a new tariff on Canadian bacon and whiskey until they get their shit in order.

The Dominion of Canada isn't a free country, they have the ability to identify and imprison those in Ottawa that were attack America, just like they can imprison those who "misgender" the LGBTQ+

Canadian hockey fans boo the ‘Star Spangled Banner’ at NHL game after Trump tariffs announced

Oh, say, can you hear that?

Booing the National Anthem is hardly an attack. Canadians have a reason to distrust our country.

 

[TheInfiniteSadness]

Canada has been allowed to screw us for years. Trump is just trying to make it fair.
Meanwhile, Castro's kid is still starting sh*t even though he resigned over a month ago.
WTF?

What did Canadians do to screw over America? How about some examples?

The fact that Canada has won more Olympic Gold Medals in Ice Hockey doesn't count.

Booing the National Anthem is hardly an attack. Canadians have a reason to distrust our country.

And they also have even more reasons not to trust the former PM who resigned over a month ago but still seems to be in office.

Off the top of my head is we've been buying their oil for inflated prices. Most of their oil is harder to refine and is mostly only good for Diesel fuel, the price of which has been artificially jacked up. Many of our auto manufacturing jobs have been sent to Canada. The result is unemployment in the US but Canada getting plenty of work for their people. Another thing is Canada has been letting people and drugs into the US just like Mexico, but on a smaller scale.
