Discourse Analysis

I’d moved to Canada if it wasn’t so expensive

They will pay 25% more for our goods? Unacceptable! Starting today, WE will pay 25% more for their goods too!

And? They should go. We can’t afford to deal with them all

The tariffs are a pretext for a trade war that will only enrich the wealthy including trump..These people don't give a rat's ass about the people and never have..That's how they accumulated their obscene billions..

“I won’t sugar coat it” seems someone has understood how tariffs work. Which is somehow the reasons economies do everything to reduce or get rid of tariffs.

The entire purpose of allowing foreign students in our universities is so that they can learn essential skills to take back and improve their OWN countries. No foreign students should be permitted to work nor should our government be allowing temporary foreign workers when our unemployment rates are the highest they've been in five decades.

It's not the immigrants. Canada never had enough for their own. The taxes are too damn high

And yet thousands of contract workers are in the oil companies employ, taking away good paying jobs from Albertans. Odd how she never mentions it🤔

Just come to brampton ontario, you'll find 2.8million. Hope i can find a job now.

From the USA: Why is it right for Canada to tariff us more than we tariff them? Trump pointed out that there was a 200 billion a year tariff deficit for the USA. Some say that number is inflated and the real number is somewhere around the 70 billion mark in Canada's favor. No one disagrees that the US has a huge tariff deficit with Canada. So, the USA is just leveling the playing field. It's time to truly have level trade with the rest of the world, not just Canada. No more free lunch from the US to the world. We want free and fair trade, but for that to happen we must tariff other countries goods at exactly the same level they tariff our goods.

You’re damn right the citizens in Canada are going to feel the pain. Your family must had better realize this and set aside your carbon tax for April so we the Canadians are not only going to suffer from the tarrifs but an increase in our taxes. We do not make the kind of money, benefits, pension that all of parliament enjoy and can weather through this.

We have a president who cares abour the economic state of our country and the morale of its blue collar worker. Our country has been ripped off by people abroad and internally. This is pressure on all governments we do business with for equal trade. We are forcing countries to become more self reliant. Each country needs to become the greatest version of itself unfettered by people dictating laws that enrich themselves at the behest of its citizens. We elected trump to tear down the old, fix the waste, weed out the greedy players taht dish out our money and get kickbacks. Thats all. America is about to become super self reliant and bring back an early 1900s boom. We can no longer be the piggy bank of the world.

Trump doesn't care about US jobs. He and the people who surround him are independently wealthy. They have already, in a few weeks, eliminated hundreds of thousands of jobs which support the running of the United States. Vital services, including VA hospitals, have been reduced. \nI support Canada, as a US citizen, against this US illogical behavior.

NOBODY WINS WITH TARIFFS

Did we NOT LEARN with Trumps LAST TARIFFS? It cost our farmers their markets and cost AMERICAN TAXPAYERS BILLIONS to bail them out of bankruptcy. And DAWNY doubles down now. What’s it going to cost us NOW? Because IT IS GOING TO COST US.

We need more doctors in this country.

Yet we send billions to Ukraine while Canadian's can't afford food, shelter let alone pay bills. Canadians get punished for hard work and any additional income is subjected more taxes. Sad reality.

But food cost 500% more in the last 6 years thanks for nothing

Born and raised living in Ontario Canada and I applaud Trump Canada has had a 35 to 40% tariff on American goods. Only difference is we call a duty tax? It’s about time America stuck it back to us.

Great, erase the middle class then give them tax breaks...
