Maybe if they weren’t running a commie welfare state they wouldn’t have economic problems.
I wouldn’t be surprised if we went with 15% generally on both Canada and Mexico. Ontario is kind of screwed. They have both US producers Ford and Stellantis up there making certain models that they are shipping 93% to the US and only 7% to Canadians. I would expect Trump to pressure both of them to onshore that production to the US because those models would be more competitively priced here in the US without the tariff than the few bucks they save assembling them in Ontario but stuck with a 15% tariff. That’s why Ford hates Trump because he knows he will be losing his biggest employers. He may also be losing his Toyota model production as well as they onshore it to Toyoya plants based here,

It is reported that she said she could walk, chew gum, and fart all at the same time.
They are not “acting like @$$holes”...they are @$$holes.
I will argue they have delusions of if not grandeur then capabilities far beyond reality. Canada pretends to be somebody it simply isn’t
The Canadian spiderweb of special rules pretend to show capabilities but are in truth merely obstacles in restraint of trade.
Canada is being split up as we speak. Alberta and Saskatchewan are going their own way and disregarding the nonsense from Ottawa
Seems to that Ford Fairlane made more than a few threats to the American economy so he’s on pretty shaky ground crying like a little girl.
