Ever heard of government cheese? You think I'm joking but it's a real thing.

Ok but what's your point?

I don't mind certain sectors taking a short-term hit if it means we can wake up and amend policies from the 70s

do you believe dairy "supply management" is fair?

and instead of trying to work out with our temper-tantrum neighbour, you're gonna stoop down to their level by say you won't be pushed around and retaliate?

ask China how they feel about engaging in the trade war...and they are a substantially larger market

and doesn't your own argument work against you
'Canadians first' sounds awfully similar to MAGA

I would buy Canadian milk any day over American milk. There's so much hormones and antibiotics Americans put into their dairy to make it economical.

this is no longer true, check WA state regulations they have changed in recent years

what about their meat?

swear every time i go down, even for the day, if i eat a burger or somthing i feel fucking grossss after

The US is subsidizing their dairy industry.

Sure, the US offers 'some' subsidies to farmers. Nowhere near the protection of Canadian tariffs though.
And Trump suggested getting rid of all subsidies, tariffs, and barriers
A suggestion that (surprise, surprise) has gone completely underreported by the media.

unless it has to do with national security right?

Was that even discussed? Not to anyone's knowledge.
so when he said all tariffs, we have to assume he meant all tariffs

And how would that be good for Canada?

protectionist policy is good for our economy
let's get those tar sands to China
say no to US dairy

Using which pipeline?

LOL good luck America if this goes through.

He's basically alienated the United States from every single country except Russia and North Korea

Don’t forget Philippines!

China is by far the world's top exporter. It exports almost twice as much as US. The US is (significantly) China's number one trade partner.
Why do you think it's America that would lose when it comes to these tariffs?

Here's a rough evaluation for Canada.
Doesn't look like the US would fair too terribly..

Cheap Chinese goods. You think trump supporters are going to be happy when the prices go up at their local dollar store?
