Trump is imposing a new tariff on Canada, just 24 hours after he announced he was pausing the 25% tariff on most imports.
I was just pointing out the US ‘equal tariffs’ justification itself is a lie since Canada doesn’t do blanket tariffs on all dairy imports and 250 is the highest possible.
Trump trying to weild them as threats and inconsistently following through is a big part of it too, but pointing his ‘matching’ tariffs are based on misleading numbers is also important.
