The Trump tariffs are coming Monday and Canada simply isn’t ready.

The impact of American tariffs on Canada will be far bigger than anything we could impose on them.

The Trudeau government is planning a slow roll out of counter tariffs that will ramp up over time.

One move under consideration by the Doug Ford government in Ontario is to simply stop the purchasing of all American -made alcohol products from bourbon to California wine.
