Canadians knew the idiot king would come swinging hard at Canada. US industry is dependent on Canadian aluminum. The 100% tariff is a disaster for them. Our warehouses are emptying out to meet European demand.
Economic war is war.
We will last one day longer and emerge one day stronger than MAGA.

Trump one week ago: "It's a good thing for him [Carney] to sign a trade deal. If he can get a deal with China, he should do that."
Trump today: "If Canada makes a deal with China, it will immediately be hit with a 100% Tariff against all Canadian goods and products coming into the U.S.A."

Amazing moment on French TV. A French judge explains how Trump sent people from the US Embassy basically trying to intimidate her during Le Pen's trial for embezzlement - something they've done to other judges around the world.
