Don’t negotiate with terrorists. His words are worthless because he doesn’t honour them. We need to shift pur economy away from the US right the fuck now.
Fentanyl Czar kind of makes it sound like he’s the one in charge of selling it.
It’s literally just going to be whichever cabinet minister is already in charge of that portfolio. Say what you want about everything else he did as prime minister, but Trudeau has always been able to deal with Trump’s bullshit. Who knew high school drama teach would be such incredibly relevant job experience.
Weird posture… We will stop fentanyl coming to US… If Canada does that, that poison stays in CA?
That’s like giving a horse dose to a dog lol
I mean we absolutely should keep fent out of our country entirely, that way it won’t get trafficked to the US either. Fuck fentanyl and what it does to people.
HOWEVER, the amount of fentanyl going to the US from Canada is extremely low, almost negligible compared to all the other ways it’s getting into the US. It’s just an excuse to invoke emergency powers so he doesn’t need to go through congress to impose tariffs and can also break the trade agreement that he himself signed. It was never about fentanyl, we’re never going to “solve” the problem in his eyes because the problem he’s claiming we have is almost entirely made up.
He can also keep his neighboring countries from focusing on what he is actually doing within his own by threatening their sovereignty. The threats are serious enough to focus attention away from the very fast and complete gutting of the American government. They took over the god damn Treasury and no one even batted an eye.
When somebody says “Fentanyl Czar”
I just imagine someone coked out of their absolute mind.
I would’ve rather we had the tariffs to be honest than negotiate with a compulsive liar with no ethics.
Not sure how much negotiating we have done. Nothing was committed to Trump that was not already in progress other than the “Fentanyl Cxar” ( whatever that means ). Probably it means giving that dumb American title to somebody already in charge of the border.
Trump got played.
The responsibility lies with Canadians now to wean ourselves off American products until a friendlier administration gets into office.
It would hurt us, for sure, but I agree. It’s one of many things other countries need to be doing to pick up the void our government is creating on the world stage. Canada needs to look out for Canada at this point and not even pretend to give the OrangeSh*tPile what he needs to say “I won!”
