The fact that President Trump thinks trade with Canada is so problematic that it warrants 50% tariffs on many (most?) Canadian goods while apparently thinking trade with China is just fine now is a powerful indictment of his second term trade policy 1/3

@RondureGyre @MikeNellis Ok MAGA

@MikeNellis The fact you don't understand makes you a moron

Trump says he’s going to solve the Canadian wildfires impacting our air quality with… tariffs. He really is a damn moron.

Trump just hit Canada with 50% Tariffs. Can I get a retweet from everyone who supports Canada. Calling all Canadians to tell Trump to fuck off! 🇨🇦 Keep buying #Canadian! Stop traveling to America.

@saygoodnig66656 @petereharrell Cuz you slapped tariffs on lumber steel aluminum and auto in violation of the free trade agreement. Now whine about no booze being sold. lol. You don’t need anything from Canada. Apparently you do

Canadian provinces banned US liquor imports in February 2025. US now puts tariffs on Canadian liquor imports into the US. Amazed how some Canadians are "surprised" the US is doing this. Absolutely hilarious. Doubly hilarious is that Canadians believe there is a genuine large constituency of Americans that think Canada is being treated unfairly and would take a position to reverse this if they were in power. They will complain about what Trump is doing, yes. (Because, Trump) But they will take the same bargaining position with Canada if they got in power, also yes.

Trump finally pulls the "Section 338" tariff trigger, on Canada! Quick reactions, with more analysis later: 1. The tariffs are under Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930, better known as the Smoot-Hawley tariff Act (of Ferris Bueller's Day Off fame). Section 338 hasn't been used since the 1930s or 1940s, and may never before have been used to impose tariffs. 2. On initial take, this looks like a substantial action, with a 50% headline tariff rate on many products. Unlike many other US tariffs on Canada, these tariffs apply *even to goods that meet USMCA rules of origin.* Many of Trump's other tariffs exclude USCMA-qualifying goods, and as a result a large share of Canadian exports to the U.S. have entered duty free. Goods covered include various foodstuffs and beverages; various wood products; paper; textiles; machinery; and other products. And hockey sticks. Tariffs will be effective starting August 19. 3. That said, some of the most important categories of U.S. imports from Canada are exempt from the new tariffs, including energy, potash, and products subject to 232 tariffs. AI's quick estimate for me is that maybe $40 billion of US imports are covered, which would be about 10% of total imports. (Take the AI estimate for what it is worth). 4. Section 338 purportedly allows the President to impose an additional tariff of up to 50% when he finds that a country has discriminated against U.S. products relative to third countries, e.g., Canada provides better terms to some foreign country than it provides to the U.S. 5. Trump is imposing the tariffs across three distinct actions under Section 338: one allegedly over Canadian discrimination against U.S. autos; one allegedly over Canadian discrimination against U.S. alcoholic beverages; and one allegedly over Canadian discrimination against U.S. dairy. 6. This represents the first use of Section 338 since the 1930s or 1940s, and the statute may not in fact have actually been used to impose tariffs before. In 1935 for example the President made a finding of discrimination under 338 but did not impose tariffs. Covington did an interesting piece on Section 338 a decade ago, which I'll link to in a reply. 7. Assuming the tariffs do in fact come into force (e.g., there is not a negotiated resolution with Canada), this will make for interesting legal challenges. There are a variety of arguments that could be made about whether 338 might require an ITC investigation prior to a Presidential finding; about whether it has been implicitly repealed by later statutes; and about what its discrimination requirements actually mean. Yet another new one for the courts....

Flavio Volpe on Trump's new 50% tariffs: "This is them saying, 'We don't like the booze that are not on the shelves. And by the way, we don't like it when we have to repeat two, three, four times that only you and China responded.'"

@gmforbes35 @erinotoole Maybe they have a 100 trade issues with them that way more important to resolve

@erinotoole He didn't threaten new tariffs on Mexico. Maybe because they are actually acting like adults and holding formal negotiations. Maybe tell you new bestie Mark to put the country over his polling numbers.

Keep calm and carry on Canada. Two thoughts on the timing of the latest tariff pronouncement. First, it came the same day the 3rd most popular podcast in the US - NYT’s The Daily - featured the USTR delivering a weak defence of US Tariff policy and its impact on consumers. 1/3

@erinotoole Maybe canada should just fking negotiate like Mexico has been doing and virtually every other country in the western world. We have such incompetent weak politicians. It’s pathetic.

NEW - Trump imposed new tariffs on Canada. In doing so, the White House cites the US alcohol bans by Ontario & other provinces, saying it “Burdens U.S. commerce” noting that “Canadian imports of U.S. alcoholic beverages decreased by approximately 81%” whitehouse.gov/presidential-a…

@geniuscyp X equals 5. Answer 30

Please solve the question carefully and give the correct answer. I'm confused about it.

@farman4x 81

Looks simple until you try to solve it. 👀 If 4x = 36, then x² = ?

@elizay560 4

If you solve this under 5 seconds!!! Can you solve this???

@farman4x 5

Looks easy.. at first glance. 👀 But most people get it wrong. Can you get it right?

@beautyandjs9 20

Answer is not 15.. Can you solve this in 20 seconds?

@MeidasTouch Wow they can’t handle that we won’t buy their alcohol. Such pathetic losers

NEWS: The Trump regime has announced an additional 50% tariff on Canada under Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930, according to a statement released by U.S. Trade Representative Ambassador Jamieson Greer.

@factpostnews Maybe you can STFU

Trump on the Canadian wildfires: Maybe they should pay some damages or something. Or we should do some tariffs

@MathGuyTFL A number multiplied by 0 is 0
