Canadians need to understand what actually happened with the U.S. trade fight.
Most countries facing Trump’s tariffs sat down early, negotiated quietly, and protected their market access. Mexico did this from day one. They absorbed the insults, made targeted concessions, kept talking, and today about 85% of their exports still enter the U.S. tariff-free. They never turned it into a domestic political show.
Canada and China were the outliers. We chose visible retaliation and “Elbows Up” campaigning instead of early, serious negotiation.
Steel and aluminum timeline:
• March 2025: U.S. hits us with 25%. We retaliate.
• June 2025: U.S. raises it to 50%. We don’t match it.
• Fourteen months of rhetoric, ads, photo-ops, and delayed serious talks later: the rate is reportedly heading back toward 25%.
That’s not a victory. That’s a long, expensive trip back to where the problem started — after jobs were lost, businesses strained, plants hesitated to invest, and taxpayers propped up industries.
The Liberals ran on the image of the only people who could stand up to Trump. Early quiet deals would have looked like weakness to their base. So they prolonged the fight for political optics, framed it as crisis management, and only shifted to “stick-handling” once the economic damage became politically costly.
Mexico treated the United States as its biggest customer and negotiated accordingly. Ottawa treated the dispute as a campaign stage.
Result: we absorbed more pain, burned more time, and are now bargaining from a weaker position. Returning to “Ground Zero” after all that damage is not parity. It’s a net loss.
You don’t win trade wars with press conferences and slogans. You win them at the table — early, pragmatically, and without turning your own workers into collateral for domestic messaging.
That’s what happened. Canadians deserved better than a year of theatre followed by managed retreat.

The single most insane ruling thus far in the gender insanity came out of the BC Human Rights Commission yesterday.
The tribunal ruled that saying you do not believe in gender identities amounts to the "existential denial" of trans people and is therefore discrimination. The school board trustee, Barry Neufeld, must now pay a $750,000 penalty for his lack of belief in gender souls.
This quote from the ruling is particularly astonishing:
“A person does not need to believe in Christianity to accept that another person is Christian. However, to accept that a person is transgender, one must accept that their gender identity is different than their sex assigned at birth.”
At least they're being completely honest about what trans rights really means now, but seriously: what absolute incoherent activist gibberish!
Some people adopt the label transgender for a wide variety of reasons that are currently oversimplified into the activist-crafted concept of “gender identity.”
That’s not denying the existence of trans people. In fact, it demonstrates a much deeper understanding of people who identify as transgender than blindly accepting the existence of unfalsifiable, pseudoscientific identity claims.
So basically, in BC, you have to believe in mystical invisible gender essences or face financial ruin.
Here’s a video of me saying repeatedly, and very clearly, that I do not believe in gender identities.
And in case I wasn’t clear the first 1,000 times I’ve said it, I’ll say it one more time for the record: I do not believe in gender identities. And I won’t ever pretend that I do.
