"Canada has failed to co-operate in curbing the ongoing flood of fentanyl and other illicit drugs, and it has retaliated against the United States for the president's actions to address this unusual and extraordinary threat," says the statement. 

If I remember correctly most of the fentanyl found was heading north to Canada not south to the US.

Fuck Donald Trump.

They’re in a (self imposed) worse position than us, so I think we just keep pushing them.

Today’s hearing on whether the “fentanyl” tariffs are legal swung heavily in our favour that Trump does not have authority to impose them.

It’s no coincidence he throws a shit fit when things are not looking his way, so he’s just trying to extort us into signing something before the courts rule this illegal and they have to pay back all the importers who paid tariffs.

This will likely go to their Supreme Court, so god knows what will happen in October when that happens, but realistically they’ll lose all their leverage and have to gasp follow their own legal framework as laid out in the US Constitution.

I like your optimism, but their Supreme Court is captured and the Constitution and rule of law is dead.

Let's build a Canada that omits the US.
