Here’s a thought, why not lift barriers against purchase of Chinese made electric cars and why not slap tariffs on our exports of gas and oil to US. Hit them where it WILL hurt.

Ontario is currently experiencing a measles outbreak, with the vast majority of cases occurring in unvaccinated individuals who were eligible to receive both doses of the vaccine.
The measles vaccine is safe, free, widely available, and very effective.
