Like a chihuahua barking at a pit bull. Kind of funny to watch. The US is 40% of Canada’s GDP. They are 2.7% of ours. Guess who this hurts more.

So, Trudy, has his panties in a bunch. WTF did he think was going to happen, he has ZERO leverage in a trade battle. The Canadian auto industry will collapse. Canada does not have a car line; the entire Canadian auto industry is to supply the American auto makers. If those goods and services are now 25% more those jobs will be brought back to the US. But hey Canada voted for this socialist, he just and into a much better and smarter capitalist.
Analyzes economic consequences of tariffs on Canadian auto industry and job relocation, critiquing Trudeau's negotiating position.

Donald Trump doesn't get credit for our booming economy, president Biden does. President Biden also had the lowest unemployment in history, not Trump. Gas prices, food prices and everything that we bye was coming down under president Biden. Now egg prices and everything else is going to skyrocket under Donald Trump, not president Biden or anyone else, Donald Trump owns everything now. Are you still glad that you voted for him. Idiots.
Compares economic performance metrics across administrations, attributing credit/blame for employment, prices, and inflation.

As an American who lives on the Michigan/Canadian border, this WILL have a serious negative effect on small business. Including my carpentry shop that relies on multiple shipments from Canada per week.

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.
Focuses on job losses and economic impact of Trump policies while supporting Canada against US actions.

How the heck did you become a multi-millionaire? Canadians are OVERTAXED, so yes you SHOULD be worried about tariffs and you resigned. Make that make sense. When its all over-it will make clear sense.

You should've visited Cape Breton. Very similar conditions maybe worst. They put us in a housing crisis. Hard to find a place to live causing huge rent hikes.

Thank Justin Trudeau for this. I was born here in Ottawa and live in low income housing. I worked since 16 years of age times have changed. Immigrants need to be sent back. All the people from India have taken jobs at Esso, Shell, Tim Hortons. Citcle K, McDonald's, Walmart!!!

The strategy of corporations exploiting illegal labour practices are never going to go away since it encourages cheap labour without any benefits is a huge leverage for the companies and the government and of course the last but not the least steps like these are not solutions for the unemployed local workers but a huge excuse for the so called organisations to open a huge black market for the illegals even more with higher rates of shipping the possible jobs abroad
Analyzes economic impacts of immigration policy, focusing on labor exploitation, corporate incentives, and effects on local workers.
