Canada said retaliatory tariffs would be placed on $20 about billion worth of American goods, including steel, dairy products, appliances and farm equipment, as the trade war between the once-friendly neighbors escalated sharply. The move came after the Trump administration imposed 50% tariffs over the weekend on Canadian goods following the collapse of trade negotiations.

One important rule: Canadian brand does NOT automatically mean Canadian made. Check the label. Look for “Made in Canada” or “Product of Canada” when that’s what you’re trying to buy.
We don’t have to boycott everything American.
We just need to stop assuming American is the only option.
Every Canadian dollar we keep circulating through Canadian businesses supports Canadian workers, Canadian manufacturers and Canadian communities.
Trump wants a trade war?
Let’s show him how strong the Canadian market can be without depending on the United States for everything. 🇨🇦

CNBC HOST: Out of 38 OECD countries, Canada ranks dead last in terms of GDP per capita growth, I'm trying to figure out why. Canada is not negotiating from a strong position.
LIB MP: Uh, yeah we are AND we're diversifying!

Anyone who thinks Canada has a chance at winning a trade war is full on delusional. Not even China can decouple itself from the US economy, and Carney thinks he can make a better deal with the EU? LOL what a 🤡
@culturetripper@GBC_Press I don't care how great your Arctic shipping and logistics is, having the world's largest economy right next door to trade with will beat trading with the EU any day of the week.
NY may have higher wages, but you forget about income taxes. You have to pay federal, state, and city. You're lucky if you get half of your pay. At that point, the money you make between Miami and NY is practically the same when you factor in expenses, and you get the better deal in Miami. I lived in NY for 35 years, and in Miami for 5, so I have plenty of experience knowing about the financial differences.
