In his news conference today, Trudeau said Canada will hold firm and push ahead with retaliatory tariffs and other measures until Trump backs off entirely.

I am happy to hear that we are still going forward with our measures regardless of what Trump does until what Trump does is fuck off.

Itโ€™s gonna be lifelong for me, even if Trunp himself is gone, the deranged ideology remains. There will eventually be a successor. All the more reason for Canada to decouple, disengage and diversify away from the US, cause at any time a new one could come in and maybe they arenโ€™t as dumb as Trump.

Ironic that we'll likely have tariffs on the US for longer than they'll have them on us.

I can't believe I've been baited into supporting tariffs but I agree with the current course of action. No flip flopping, no accepting 'pauses'.

Yep because their word (or signature on international trade agreements) is meaningless.

[โ€“] otter@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 days ago

The uncertainty from going back and forth is maddening.

Each delay has only come after the tariffs have already started. 'until he backs off entirely' is a reasonable ask

Reminds me of the handshake
