  1. I don't know where you're at if you're even in Canada, but that's always been the case. At least when I lived near Vancouver in the late 90s. Which is why I really don't care. Since I lived there, I'm also aware the whole they're the most polite people on Earth is also a lie. They were some of the rudest people I'd ever had the displeasure to be around. Especially once they found out I was American and southern because Hollywood movies are real life apparently. I am glad the news there has admitted that if they didn't have the US to provide defense they wouldn't have the social programs they do. As a person whose tax dollars pay for that protection, I have no problem protecting our industries from other countries. It's something we never should have stopped doing. Especially since every other country engages in it. I'm glad since Trump was in office in 2016 I've learned that when I was taught in school that we engage in free trade with our allies it was only us doing so.

  2. ​​ @bezceljudzelzceljsh5799 ​ Canada has tariffs on US imports. For example, on milk, it's as high as 230%. It's a progressive tarrif, so the more imported, the higher it gets. Obviously nobody imports enough to reach that percentage, which is the point of it. It's to protect theur dairy industry. Canada engages in protectionist tariffs, but for some strange reason Canada doesn't think the US should be allowed to do the same. Every country engages in this practice against US industries, but we're supposed to just put tiny more symbolic ones. I don't think most Canadians are even aware they're doing it. So I'm trying to be educational in my engagement with them on this topic. That's why the president is saying reciprocal tariffs. If Americans were running around complaining and hating Canadians for decades over these tariffs, I'd understand the reaction. Instead, we've tolerated them and it doesn't impact our relationship, but if we dare engage in reciprocal tariffs, the world is ending and we're the worst people ever. Edit: This is why milk is so much more expensive in Canada and why Canadians near the border will cross to buy it and gas. If they weren't in place, we'd import a lot more. Making your milk comparable in pricing but also destroying your dairy industry. So you're own country isn't working in your best interests if that interest is cheaper goods.

  3. ​ @BurgerofMan  As I said in my other post, it's not new. Canadians have always hated the US as long as I've been engaged with the population. Except Obama. They treat him like a king whenever he visits.
