@bringtheblaine Worse, this is all for one malignant narcissist’s (Trump) ego & desire to put on a show of dominance. That’s all! It has nothing to do with the economy & security, which is why the reasoning for aggression keeps changing (fentanyl, border, trade deficit, China, child labour??)
Seeing in real time that you can manipulate American's to hate Canada has really got me shook. If we're this easily manipulated, then we're gonna be puppets when AI is more ubiquitous.
It's kind of alarming how easy it is to sway American public opinion on topics.
Canada will match the new U.S. tariffs dollar for dollar, with additional Canadian tariffs on $27.6 billion worth of U.S. goods.
To protect Canadian workers and businesses, the government is also introducing new and enhanced support measures.

Q: Do you think Canada is just going to have to wait this out, wait for a new president?
Evan Solomon: We're not waiting. We are moving ahead. We are going to build.
🎥 The trade war between Canada and the US is on again.
And this matters - not just for these two countries but for everyone.
But this time around Canada might just have a secret weapon in its fight.
Here's our primer, with charts aplenty👇
Every time I send a dollar to a Canadian, I get something back that's even more valuable to me. So yes, I run a trade deficit, but I also run a stuff surplus. It's utterly absurd to call this is a loss -- it's a huge win!
Let us never forget who the Canadians are, nor the deep and enduring friendship that exists between Canada and the United Kingdom.Our two nations are bound together by history, shared sacrifice, common values and generations of friendship. Canada has stood alongside Britain through some of the darkest chapters of our history, and that loyalty and kinship are neither forgotten nor taken for granted.Whatever disagreements may arise elsewhere, the affection felt for Canada in this country runs extraordinarily deep. When it matters, Britain and Canada have stood shoulder to shoulder, and long may that friendship endure. To our Canadian friends: thank you. Britain remembers, Britain values your friendship, and Britain stands beside you.
Americans in Ohio share their opinion on tariffs as they are experiencing it. Listen carefully to the last guy; this is all you need to know. https://t.co/NXFtfroH8Y
Pleased that @CanadianPM@MarkJCarney will attend the @Europarl_EN's Plenary Session in Strasbourg in September.
He will be a guest of honour at the State of the Union debate by @EU_Commission President @vonderleyen, before his formal address to MEPs.
The Prime Minister's important visit will be an opportunity to deepen EU-Canada ties and strengthen our bond 🇪🇺🇨🇦
@RelentlessAggie@mccaffreyr3 You respectfully disagree with a retired General? Because somehow you have better information on the condition of the bases Iran has attacked….
Exhibit A: the USS Lincoln.
We are a country of ignoramuses.
@CCarlso82586572 Sure. The polls are clear. The US does not support this war. They do continue to support the Armed Forces.
I think the global leadership community is horrified by the mess we’re in.
The US Navy is an incredible fighting force. Twenty warships and two carriers are deadly to the Iranians. The Navy has enormous offensive and defensive capabilities They are well out to sea and difficult to find or attack.
The problem is logistics. The Iranians have ended the utility of Army, Navy, and Air Force Persian Gulf logistics bases which have been hammered by ballistic
missiles and drones.
Now the Fleet will be supported from Diego Garcia and the Philippines. We will disperse air power to Western Saudi Arabia and southern Europe. The Army will harden our dispersed missile forces.
We are in the middle of a strategic disaster with no allies or support from the American people.
@Acyn Her nomination is the test. If she is not rejected, if competency is picked over corruption; there is hope for 🇨🇦, the political class will act anytime soon to stop the madness. If not, the midterms will hopefully be the way to counter the GOP or whatever it has become.
@Frid45 🇧🇪 living in 🇨🇦 for 15 years. Love my homeland, but 🇨🇦 is probably my forever home. It is a great country to live in, easy going, cordial and dynamic. I highly recommend it! It is a fantastic holiday destination. There are many stunning landscapes and regions to explore.
