Don't blame me, I had nothing to do with this.

It appears Trumps administration is aware of the violations we have been engaged in and they are not going to allow it to continue I suppose.


(Bloomberg) — President Donald Trump will levy a 35% tariff on goods coming into the US from Canada, he said in a post on Truth Social. The tariff level would take effect from Aug. 1.
It’s not clear whether a current exemption for goods traded under the USMCA trade pact would be extended or ended.

Trump is also eyeing blanket tariffs of 15% to 20% on most trading partners, he said in an interview with NBC News Thursday, adding that the exact levels are being worked out now. The current blanket tariff rate is 10%.

Taken together, the moves signal no retreat from his flagship economic policy, with Trump noting to NBC the recent rise in US equity markets even as Trump plans higher tariff rates on major trading partners that would start within weeks.

The president has spent the week sending missives to trading partners, informing them of new rates that will kick in on Aug. 1 if they cannot negotiate better terms. Letters to members of the European Union are also expected shortly.
 
Agencies in this country allowed the lies and terrorism against me for 40 years. I can't believe at one time I was willing to risk my life for this country. CSIS and the Public Safety Minister didnt pull rankeven after I begged them to. I asked American authorities to let Canada know I reached out to them and even share what I told them, that is how.desperate I hwve become. They are trying to steal hundreds of thousands MORE.from me in stealing my home, render me homelsss, after stealing MILLIONS in earnings over the decades. Whatever tariff Canada gets hit with, they cannot blame me. I have been victimized far worse by authorities in creepy Ontario than any Canadian businesses would ever experience via lost business due to tariffs.

Trump is a moron. You don't do this to your friend, and your friend with a huge border.

What would you like me to do? I have wanted Canada to respect our Charter of Rignts, support capitalism instead of our caste system which destroyed me from the time I was a kid. America is based on Judeo-Christian values. Canada is based on G-od Ordained Rights of Kings. We should have actually ensured the Right to Self Determination of citizens, due process, transparency and the right to work. Instead the Creepy Ones in Canada have violated citizens rights AND U.S corporations rights when they operate here. To be honest,.a 35% tariffis a deal considering we have little to no innovation but plenty of Creepy Ones and nepotism.

Define "friend". Should we share vital values on civil liberties.and fair, balanced and blind justice or should a caste system prevail?

Define "friend". When there's a war, they don't use their country as a base for your enemy.

No, that could just mean "neutral". Or in this case, the U.S has the military capacity to destroy any such base due to proximity anyways so it's a moot point. Canada long ago should have embraced a Republic view of governance. At the very least if we wanted to remain in the Commonwealth we should have ensured "complete individual freedom and accountability/consequences for ANY agency that violated that freedom of citizens". Instead they spit on these values, clearly no more an ally to America as say, China or Russia. If we don't hold ourselves to the same basic principles of liberty as right to self determination as Americxans do, we.cannot be a "friend", but can be an exploiter of your goodwill. I dont even want to know how many double agents we have in Canada looking to harm America, I was.exposed to it via.thr covert TPS whominfiltrated IBM. We have spread this disdain for Americas freedoms for far too long.and now we pay the Piper I suppose. dont blame.me, my ilk, my genetic makeup were more the solution, not the problem.

The problem is the US is pushing countries away. Canada might just choose to go elsewhere, which causes a HUGE BORDER to become a threat.

You incorrectly believe the world wants to come to Canada. The number of new immigrants who leave within two years is astounding. Anerica is the prime destination for the world, not Canada anymore.

JFC.

What does it need to do in order to embrace a Republic view of governance? Hold elections or something?

republican adj 1 relating to or like a republic. 2 in favour of or supporting a republic as a form of government.

Individual liberty having equal value, in most instances, as that of.government forces. Covert or opaque.
 
I may have lost faith in Trump, but, I do agree with the Tariffs. Other countries have taken advantage of the US for too long. Canada is one of them. Reading through your posts, I 100% agree with you, as an American. shockedcanadian

I was thinking more of "hey, you have a nice border with the US, we want to invade them, can we use your country as a base?
 
TACO strikes again.
August 1st?

Canada is quietly embarrassing the orange retard.

What is wrong with Canada??? they use to be more sensible... its become like a giant California....
At least commiefornia can blame it on the "Hotel California"(lefty) mentality. Canada I don't know, maybe slipped too far into envirowhackoism. multiculturalism(death to humanity) & nihilism?

It's the Creepy Ones grooming our young and DESTROYING our nation and economy.

Now Canada is playing catch up saying "we are going to spend billions to try and educate our citizens to be innovators".

It's gonna happen. FREE nations innovate, not caste systems and Police States.

Think of an old song, Jack and Diane, Summer of '69 (ironically by a Canadian), songs about the young and them growing up. We listen to the songs and think back. In Canada, the police think back to those days too, "the kids they are singing about were our main grooming targets!".

They like the young, trusting and naive, it's cattle for them to profit from for a lifetime! They destroy citizens to keep them in their caste while they and their dumb kids enjoy nepotism to get high paying government jobs.

Well, Trump and America are saying, "we are no longer subsidizing your creepiness". Carney is already taking about deep cuts to our government, hopefully this will trickle down and the dumb kids of these dumb Creepy Ones will have to compete in the real world.

Americans have no idea unfortunately. As I have warned many times, be careful who your police agencies emulate...

Canada is not getting hit with anything. US consumers are.
