America will survive, but will Canada?

“Trump tariffs threaten to derail Canada's economic recovery”

SNIP
“The central bank has said Canada's growth will be permanently stunted by the tariffs, while inflation will see a spike that could persist if tariffs continue.
The BoC will announce its monetary policy decision on March 12 and currency swap markets see at least a 90% chance of a rate cut, almost double the chance expected on Monday.
Exports to the U.S. account for roughly 18% of Canada's GDP and more than 2.4 million jobs in Canada are dependent on business with the U.S.
"I won't sugar coat it. This is going to be tough," Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told a press conference on Tuesday.
Economists said that if tariffs continue and keep stacking up, they will ripple through a multitude of sections of the economy.
Households will be pushed deeper into debt, company profits will be hit, government revenues will be dented, there will be sweeping layoffs, consumer and corporate defaults will jump, and Canadian provinces could lose credit ratings, they said.
"It will disproportionately affect the less fortunate economically," said Dave McKay, CEO of Royal Bank of Canada, the country's biggest lender.”

The important reason why I agree with President Trump’s tariffs on Canada and Mexico are aimed at getting America’s biggest trading partners to reduce the amount of undocumented immigrants and fentanyl coming across America’s borders.

LurkerMom: America will survive, but will Canada? ... Exports to the U.S. account for roughly 18% of Canada's GDP...

Umm.

Don't be so sure his insane trade wars won't kill the US economy since Canada is the largest export destination for US goods (18%), followed by Mexico (16%) and China (7%). That's 41% of U.S. exports.


LurkerMom: The important reason why I agree with President Trump’s tariffs on Canada and Mexico are aimed at getting America’s biggest trading partners to reduce the amount of undocumented immigrants and fentanyl coming across America’s borders.

Umm.

Virtually no fentanyl comes into the US from Canada. Just 43 pounds of fentanyl were intercepted coming from Canada into the U.S. last year, whereas Canadian authorities intercepted about 11 pounds going the opposite way during the same period.

Right now, more fentanyl is currently being trafficked from the U.S. to Canada.

The same is true for undocumented immigrants: In FY 2024, Border Patrol apprehended 23,721 people who illegally crossed the northern border into the U.S. That’s about 1.5% of Border Patrol apprehensions nationwide.

Illegal migration from Canada to the US ain't a thing...at least not a thing worth a trade war.

And you'd agree with Trump if he told you the moon landing was faked and Elvis is still alive because you're in his cult.

No.

The 'important reason' is your far right propaganda media TELL you what to think and you are incapable of critical thinking. So you must adhere to Trump, no matter how ridiculous that devotion becomes. CULT.

Funny how it's ok for ONE president to give them impetus for that.

And, you and the Left won't shout 'jingoism" "Ugly American" "Arrogant Bush" like you do to America.

Between China and Russia, I hope they get you people good and I hope the Religion of Peace gets its ass into gear in Europe.

Sadly the China part you will like.



BTW, why did China slap new tariffs on your Canadian heroes? Oh yeah, because your Canadian heroes put tariffs on Chinese EVs..... but hey, they weren't Ugly or Trumpy. And sure, they are allowed to have tariffs on dairy---that's ok too.


In the meantime is the KGB in charge of Racist Germany? Because they sure buy lots of Putin energy and they fund lots of death in Ukraine.

“Fentanyl is a powerful synthetic opioid that is up to 50 times stronger than heroin and 100 times stronger than morphine. Just 2 milligrams of fentanyl, equal to 10 to15 grains of table salt, is considered a lethal dose.”

Just?? Sorry, 43 pounds of fentanyl is 43 pounds too many.
I read, “Canada unveiled a $1.3 billion plan to secure the border and appointed a fentanyl czar.” This came after President Trump’s get tough policies. Good on President Trump.

The same is true for undocumented immigrants: In FY 2024, Border Patrol apprehended 23,721 people who illegally crossed the northern border into the U.S. That’s about 1.5% of Border Patrol apprehensions nationwide.

SNIP
“The number of migrant apprehensions at the U.S.-Mexico border rose in fiscal 2019 to its highest annual level in 12 years. The 851,508 apprehensions recorded last fiscal year (October 2018-September 2019) were more than double the number the year before (396,579) but still well short of the levels in the early 2000s, according to CBP, the agency tasked with enforcing immigration laws at the border”

“Illegal border crossings have plummeted 90% since Trump returned to White House, Border Patrol chief says”

you're in his cult

Yep, the cult is united making waves across America cutting waste and fraud in our government,
the Cult knows what the definition of a women is, The Cult does not want inferior males in women sports because they are not good enough to compete in sports with men, the Cult believes the life of the unborn child deserves to be born and live its life just as you do, the Cult identifies there are only two sexes, a man and a women, the Cult does not use pronouns to identify a man or women, the Cult does not believe in identity politics and DEI and the WOKE nonsense..the Cult list goes on.

Meanwhile the democrats and left are floundering aimlessly in the wilderness.
They have no leader, they have no message, they argue amongst themselves.
They use ping pong paddles for message communication, they stand on street corners singing songs they are not the downtrodden, they put out ridiculous videos on youtube of the dem females making fools of themselves, the democrat list of failure goes on and on.
