'Nothing off the table' in Canada's response to US tariff threat (www.bbc.com)

submitted 2 weeks ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Canadian political leaders say "nothing is off the table" when it comes to responding to potential 25% tariffs from the US, days before they could come into force.

But strains are showing in "Team Canada" when it comes to whether energy supply should be a tool in a possible tariff war with the US.

Canadian officials argue (tariffs) would undermine the US economy, increase inflation for American consumers - including raising prices at the petrol pump - and hamper investment.

They also warn tariffs could undermine national security, given Canada, a US ally, is a key source of energy and critical minerals.

The best thing to do here would be to shut the fuck up and see if the old fool even remembers saying it, let alone get distracted by a golf ball next month.

But of course, they can't keep quiet and let it get forgotten like the Greenland bullshit. So we'll have tariffs because Donny will need to show he doesn't get pushed around.

Fuck.
