Summary

Canada is preparing to retaliate against Donald Trump’s proposed 25% tariffs on Canadian imports, which could trigger the largest trade war between the nations in decades.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau promised counter-tariffs worth $37 billion, with potential for further measures, depending on Trump’s final order.

Canadian officials warn the tariffs could harm both economies, disrupting key sectors like automotive, energy, and agriculture.

Labor leaders expressed concerns over job losses and urged collaboration. Canada hopes to avoid tariffs by highlighting their mutual economic impact to U.S. lawmakers.

      Do we really need to resort to homophobia to mock Trump and Putin? And don’t give me some dross about how you think it even remotely registers to them when you say that just because they’re homophobic.

          A happy and healthy relationship that I wouldn’t mock just because it involves two men? It’s not 1999 dude. This isn’t funny.
