I think there are many in this Country that are presently quite deluded.

I for one would be happy to live in Canada and pay taxes to them instead of the US. Open your doors, Canada, and you will get people investing in your economy. Mass exodus.

Don't worry Tariffs are paid for by Canada I really do not know if he is so stupid he believes that or he knows and does not care either way it is so dumb and hurtful to think otherwise. The last time tariffs like this were in place was the late 1800's and early 1900's. If anyone know this time it was the time of the oligarchs like Rockefellers Carnegies that road the backs of the everyday Americans making them the richest people in the world. Notice a theme here, I do!!

It's going to be a lot easier for other countries to boycott American good than for us to avoid buying tariffed imports because nothing is made here. We are SO fucked.

Average Canadian home price as of Jan 2025 $720,000, 9 Years as Prime Minister before Trumps first term. People eating up the gibberish ad if he isnt a key figure why Canadas economy and living cost skyrocketed before trump. He couldn't even fix ut when Biden was in office.
