    My wish came true overnight or early this morning: 50% tariffs on man Canadian goods.

    Prime Minister Carney said "the tariffs are in violation of north American trade agreements." (So many words, but still no apology!)

    And that wasn't even because of the smoke. It was because Canada was violating the trade agreements.

    I didn't know about that until now. That explains why leftie Carney said what he said (accuse others of what he is guilty of.) Still, I'm satisfied with the timing of Trump's response and by the magnitude of the tariffs.

    Canada's not what it used to be. They used to do so many things right compared to the USA, but now they're f'ing up bigtime.

    Standard negotiation. You don't start out light. You start off heavy, then you can pull some of it back as a "gesture of good will" and still win.

    But Leftoids aren't used to negotiating. It's their way or the highway. The only problem is that they aren't in a position of power to demand their way.

    Because the Elitists took over and are using the country for their plans.

    That's smart, so of course the American TDS sufferers are going to fight it.

    Of course. "Trump evil" is what the TV tells them to think every morning.
