If you wanted to decrease the cost of homes, one thing you wouldn’t do is put a flat tariff on your main source of timber.

The tariffs on Canada are not a negotiating tactic because there’s nothing to gain. About 1.5% of illegal crossings happen at the Canadian border, and less than 1% of fentanyl comes from Canada. This country has been our closest ally, and we are destroying our relationship with them for no reason.

Regarding ICE raids- there are a lot of rumors flying around. Please make sure to follow up and verify information before you share it. Vigilance is useful but panic is not.
