Trump warns Canada, Mexico tariffs are coming on Saturday

It’s like sale prices at JCPenny.

Tariffs on oil and microchips, should make a nice dent in cost of living.

It's What happens when you treat a country like business.

Don't worry, Alberta's premier already has her head so far up Trump's ass that she will never allow a retaliatory tariff on oil. I'm calling now that if the federal government pushes it through anyway, then Alberta will immediately try to leave Canada and join the US.

We're gonna be fucked either way because the country will tear itself apart over a response while getting economically strangled.

They also import a shitload of electricity.

And pretty much anything made out of a tree.

"Who knew oil was so complicated?"

Anytime he finds something out, "nobody knew". Anytime he finds out he went too far, "no one knew it was this complicated".

The Agreement between the United States of America, Mexico, and Canada (USMCA) was entered into force on July, 1, 2020, under the USMCA Implementation Act, H.R. 5430; Public Law 116-113. It replaces the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) which was in force from January 1, 1994 to June 30, 2020.

Hmm who was president in 2020?

How many businesses has he bankrupted again?

[cybermass@lemmy.ca]

Then do it bitch, I don't care.

My job will literally not be affected and all the American companies we work with will just skirt the law to avoid tariffs because America or they will pay them.

Ain't no one taking down the true north strong and free

Trump warns that he's going to tank the US economy On Saturday

[shalafi@lemmy.world]

Crash these economies, with no survivors. (OK, bad day for that one.)

Until people see the results of fascism, it'll keep creeping and creeping. Right now it's a full throttle. Let. It. Run.

LMAO at Americans bitching about grocery prices. Well over half of us are getting plenty of calories. There won't be change, let alone revolution, as long as we're all fat, happy and something is on the tube.

[justonepersistentkbinplease@fedia.io]

If Trump puts tariffs on Canadian oil, Americans will see an immediate 5% price jump in all goods, even the ones not covered by tariffs.

[morbidcactus@lemmy.ca]

Lots of metals as well, TD has an analysis if interested.

[mydoglovesme@lemmy.world]

Let’s talk about that summertime electricity from the north. Can Canada turn that off?

[not_that_guy05@lemmy.world]

As an American, I support the effort Canada and Mexico will do to fight back.

[not_that_guy05@lemmy.world]

Guys I hope people haven't forgotten that the trump admin changed NAFTA when they were in previous term.

We are in this "unfair slump" because they can't even do a deal right.

WTF was it, something something art of the deal or something?

He will tank the US just like he tanked all his businesses.

[greenknight23@lemmy.world]

he's not a business man.

he's a liquidator.

[foggenbooty@lemmy.world]

I know, it's crazy how his supporters don't put two and two together. HE MADE THE TRADE DEAL HE'S SUPPOSEDLY GETTING SHAFTED ON!
