U.S. President Donald Trump has unleashed tariffs against Canada today, setting in motion a trade war between two countries with deeply linked economies, jeopardizing jobs and likely raising consumer prices on both sides of the border.

      If Canada stops posturing and normalizes relations with China then it might.

    A panicked captain, ordering her guns to sound, in a desperate attempt to establish dominance. Who could be surprised when a retort came across her bow?

    Does the USA export or import more to Canada?

      The US is around 76% exports for Canada accounting for 19% of GDP. Meanwhile, exports from US to Canada account for around 2.7% of the GDP for the US.

          It’s what happens when you pursue feels based politics for a decade instead of looking out for national interest. Both Canada and Europe bought into the whole shared values narrative, and are now finding out that their dependence will be exploited by the hegemon.

      Given the huge disparity between impact on Canada and the US, this makes perfect sense from the US perspective.
