In 1890, the Tariff Act came into place in the United States. It placed tariffs on imports of up to 50%.
While touted as a way to build American industry, there was also the hope it would force an annexation of Canada. It backfired.
Let's learn more.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.
18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.
We made this website to tell our story:

Americans, what are you smoking?
Fox News host Jesse Watters openly fantasizes about invading Canada:
"Canada... the fact they don’t want us to take them over makes me want to invade. I want to satisfy my imperialist thirst," he said.
Nothing different than Russian propaganda shows, where they fantasize about invading Europe.
