Summary

Trump’s new 25% tariffs on Canadian goods, along with threats of more on lumber and dairy, have sparked widespread backlash in Canada.

Canadians are boycotting American products, canceling U.S. trips, and rallying around “Buy Canadian” efforts. Ontario has banned U.S. liquor sales, and Premier Doug Ford threatened to cut electricity exports.

British Columbia’s premier vowed national unity against the tariffs. The federal government launched a $5 billion aid program for affected businesses.

Many Canadians see the tariffs as a betrayal and reject Trump’s taunts about making Canada the 51st state.

    I’ve been saying the same thing to every apologetic American; we don’t want your apologies, we want your anger.

    If you’re so God damn sorry about this, put a stop to it. Until you do, your words mean nothing.

        I’m not even asking them to be our allies. I don’t need them to give a single flying fuck about us. We’ll take care of ourselves if we have to. I just need them to fix their God damn country before its too late, because that’s the one problem only they can solve.
