BREAKING: U.S. Commerce Secretary Lutnick says Trump may roll back Canada and Mexico tariffs tomorrow, and “meet in the middle.” Yeah, OK. You mean Trudeau called your bluff and you know this will destroy America.
Looks like Trump may have lost the trade war in less than 24 hours.
@GreatBrianLast I have officially canceled Netflix in response to the unjust US tariffs on Canada. I will also put an end to all Arcadian Vanguard shows until this attack on Canada is resolved. GREAT CONENT, I'm sorry it has to be this way.
@kpac_15@ABDanielleSmith This is war, Alberta must remove all American products and contracts. Make America and Americans suffer like it was the Great Depression.
The tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump are an unjustifiable economic attack on Canadians and Albertans. They also represent a clear breach of the trade agreement signed by this same U.S. President during his first term. These tariffs will hurt the American people, driving up costs for fuel, food, vehicles, housing, and many other products. They will also cost hundreds of thousands of American and Canadian jobs. This policy is both foolish and a failure in every regard.
This is not the way it should be between two of the world’s strongest trading allies and partners. We would much rather be working with the U.S. on mutually beneficial trade deals than be caught in the middle of a tariff war.
Alberta fully supports the Federal response announced today by the Prime Minister. I will be meeting with my Cabinet today and tomorrow to discuss Alberta’s response to these illegal tariffs, which we will announce publicly tomorrow.
Now is the time for us to unite as a province and a country. We must do everything in our collective power to immediately tear down provincial trade barriers and fast-track the construction of dozens of resource projects, from pipelines to LNG facilities to critical minerals projects. We must strengthen our trade ties throughout Europe, Asia, and the Americas for all our energy, agricultural, and manufactured products. We also need to drastically increase military spending to ensure we can protect our nation. There is no time to waste on any of these initiatives.
I will have more to say tomorrow.
@charliekirk11 Turning Point's support for Trump's socialist policies is puzzling. He aims to dictate the mode of production rather than allowing the free market to manage the economy effectively.
Did you know it’s easier for Canadian provinces to trade with European countries than with each other?
It’s time Canada eliminates interprovincial trade barriers so that Canadian families, businesses, and our national economy can weather this incoming trade dispute with the U.S.. We need more pipelines and we need to repeal irresponsible federal legislation like C-69 to unlock the full power of Alberta energy for the benefit of every single Canadian.
I drew this last November 26th knowing full well no self-respecting family newspaper in the country would be likely to print it. I was right. But given the events of this weekend, I’m gonna to let ‘er rip anyway.

@WendysCanada, sadly, I won't be able to visit Wendy's or @DairyQueen anymore. I'll miss you. Maybe one day, when tariffs are removed, I can once again visit your establishments.
Please welcome the newest province of Canada...Florida.
Premier De Santis will announce the renaming of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of Canada this evening.
@RogerDoucet@KathleenGanley 40+ years of conservative government had all of our eggs in the O&G basket. 2014-2020 certainly wasn’t a time of “robust economic growth”
The NDP didn’t chance the curriculum in AB.
This is Danielle Smith playing a shell game with healthcare - constantly changing something so she can appear to be “doing something to fix it,” all she’s actually doing is making it worse. #AbLeg
