Fact- CUSMA has a tariff free cap on U.S. dairy coming into Canada.
Fact- Trump himself said CUSMA was the greatest deal ever.
Fact- the U.S. has NEVER exported more than their cap amount.
Fact- Trump is fighting over a cap he agreed to that his country has never gone over.
The Truth About Milk 🥛🇨🇦🇺🇸
Yes, Canada has high over-quota dairy tariffs on the books. But here’s the part that keeps getting left out:
They’ve never been triggered on U.S. milk under USMCA. Not once.
The U.S. gets a large tariff-free quota to sell dairy into Canada. Those quotas have never been filled, so the 200–300% over-quota tariffs have never actually been applied to U.S. exports. Even the U.S. dairy industry has acknowledged it has never come close to exceeding the quotas.
Canada is a country of just 41 million people. We simply don’t consume enough imported U.S. dairy to hit the quota limits. The “270% tariff on Canadian milk” talking point/ sound bite leaves out the most important fact: it has never actually been charged on U.S. exports.
@BenIsBack123@simbahcrazy@thugwontmiss You claimed that the issue is parents not giving a fuck what the kids are doing which implies that the chalk drawing activity was something bad that the parent should somehow be discouraging? If that's not what you meant then maybe you should convey your message better. 😊
Good for #WabKinew stepping up for Canadians, and firefighters from both sides of the border. Absolutely ridiculous that it even needs to be said, but in the world of the "ambulance chaser" I'm glad he said it in a way that should connect.
@notlesbianian@kittygang_4ever Hey so not every Jewish person is a Zionist just like not every American is a Trump supporter. Go fight and protest something that actually matters
