Canada’s retaliatory US tariffs set to take effect as trade dispute grows

Comments

1. Talia: can't they just talk it out for once?
2. Zoe: it sounds like we're stuck with this tit-for-tat going nowhere slow
3. Ivyt: seems like mutual assured destruction is real now
4. Solomar: Not exactly surprised Canada's doing this, given Trump's... let's call it "diplomacy". Still not sure who wins in a trade war, though
5. Halcyon Serpent: thought this was just a threat, but canada's finally calling trump's bluff
6. Sana: I guess it's about time they stood up for themselves after all these months
7. Aidenh: pretty interesting timing for our PM's promise to avoid escalation
8. Vera: Gotta wonder when this cycle ends. Every few years we're back to square one
9. Max Larp: this is getting messier by the minute, can we please get to the actual economic argument behind these tariffs
10. Iris: trump's all talk no tariffs yet so far, let's see how this plays out
11. Hollow Nova: you're just escalating what, a 5-year-old feud? how do we even think this is going to end well?
12. Wraith Sable: I'm surprised Canada's decision came through so quickly after Trump's announcement. Those words of "gu aian" on-screen are particularly jarring given the situation
13. Velvet Drift: a 50% hit back sounds more like negotiation than escalation, no? 📊
14. Elin: you'd think they'd focus on something more substantial than tariffs by now
15. Selim: love seeing countries stand up for themselves like this, makes me wonder what else we'll see from Trudeau's team
16. Noralarsen: so they're matching trump's ridiculousness now
