Sunshine: Well, Canada is proof that tariffs work because Canada has tariffs. They tariff our dairy industry. They say that when you know X amount of imports— Phillip: We have never actually hit the quota where those tariffs would actually be paid. And guess who negotiated those quota rates?... President Trumpshow more

@UPROAR23 Fuck thank you so much. Finally lol.

Reporter explains how Canadian tariffs have rarely (if ever) been implemented on dairy products because they only come into effect after a very high amount of imports. Maga:

Canada hit him with $27.6 billion in counter-tariffs and he renamed a lake. Proportional response.

Journalists need to explain qrt tariffs. They prevent dumping and protect strategic reserves. All countries use them and also have some kind of agricultural subsidies. Canada uses supply management, US uses direct subsidies. These exemptions & qrt are negotiated into the deal.

Americans are truly the stupidest populus on earth. Mind boggling how ignorant 300 millions people can be.

Jennings not saying a damn word because Phillip blew them away with FACTS! No tariffs have been charged on US dairy etc. because the US has NOT hit the high threshold of exports to trigger the tariffs! This is not hard. Trump and Lutnick are gargantuan assholes.

It worked; y'all are talking about relatively minor stuff instead of the Iran war, contaminated food supply, kids dying from eradicated disease, army led by a raging alcoholic, his destruction of your democracy, might want to keep your eye on the ball.

I’m impressed Phillip called her out on the diary quota issue. Well done.

Can someone educate these people on Dairy Tariffs from Canada? The over quotas are not the tariff %

How has it taken this long for somebody in mainstream american media to explan this

Trump breached CUSMA deal he agreed on and signed when he arbitrarily imposed more tariffs on Canada. He betrayed us, threatened our sovereignty & existence & said he needed nothing from us. Not how you treat a lifelong ally, friend, trading partner and brother in arms!!!

Thank God there is still a voice of reason in the US.

Canada is roughly 1/10 U.S. population and buying power, yet we import over 3 times as much dairy from the U.S. as they import from us. And yes, high dairy tariffs are ONLY above quota. Quotas have never been met or exceeded, and Trump agreed to them.

It'd be nice if anyone would also point out that Canada has 41m people. There is no scenario where they'll be buying the same amount of goods from us as we do them with 350m people. They also always omit the fact that we have a trade SURPLUS with Canada when combining goods & services. This trade war with Canada is the dumbest thing any President has ever done.

The point of these tariffs is to restrict how much product can be imported and encourage domestic production. Which, coincidentally, is also the point of Trump’s tariffs.

We have never actually hit the quota because no dairy producer is going to pay the 400% tariff, so they choose to sell elsewhere.

Fun fact for 2025 US dairy imports from canada : 250M Canadian dairy imports from usa: 900M

Sunshine is a fucking moron

@CSUNSHINE you are the dumbest person I know right along with Trump. All you idiot republicans do is lie and mislead and leave important info out. Trump negotiated the quotas that we’ve never hit thus no tariff assessed to our dairy. You and @ScottJenningsKY are aweful.

The moment she realizes Trump negotiated the last deal and she doesnt have a fucking clue what she is saying.

Why hasn't anyone mentioned that Canadians won't buy American dairy? We don't want it or their meat.

Canadians simply don't want your shit dairy with it's hormones like rBST etc. No f**king thank you. Besides, Canada has a right to protect it's own farming industry. Don't think because you're the "big bad USA" that other countries don't get to protect their domestic products.

@CSUNSHINE oMG Trump negotiated that 2018 & USA never reached the top number so nothing paid! Also he wanted 🇨🇦 to check with USA before trading anyone else/also wanted no French on Quebec (today was dropped) he changed script. Btw you don’t have aluminum/TP

It's funny, because the USA also have their own TRQs in the USMCA agreement, but somehow its only bad when Canada has flood of goods protection.

@Bratt_world It’s almost impossible to hit those quotas though as it’s actually CAD processors that are awarded most of the US dairy quotas to import US products but they have zero incentive to import competing products and just outright block US dairy from entering CAD. Fill rates stay ~40%

It’s pretty simple - THERE ARE NO TARIFFS CHARGED UNLESS NEGOTIATED QUOTAS ARE EXCEEDED. Since quotas have not ever been exceeded for dairy the trade is free. That’s what the USMCA is all about. All these false justifications for tRump's illegal actions are just noise.

Finally, someone called out the Republican for their ignorance about the dairy tariffs. Trump negotiated those dairy tariffs under the USMCA, and Abby Phillip explained that perfectly—yet they still refused to comprehend it. These MAGA are impossible.

What best for us!!! That’s not how you negotiate baby girl…. Both side needs to benefit from a deal and that the problem.

Sick of these ppl spreading propaganda accomplishing nothing more but hurting their own citizens, making other nations a target and being the antecedent behind poor mental health in America.

It's a good example of how the US administration lies & lies & lies, and people repeat those lies and dumb idiots believe those lies. Canada does NOT, and has NEVER charged any huge tariff on US dairy ever. LOL. Fucking idiots.

Somebody should tell whoever that blonde idiot is that the US does exactly the same thing with their own over quota tariffs.

God Speed @CNN For Facts On US Dairy Trade With Canada That America NEVER EVER Hit The Canada Tariff Quota🚨 @Canada Under @MarkJCarney Should Sue @FoxNews No Money, Just For Fox News To Report Facts on US Canada Duty Free Dairy Trade For a Week, 2 Mins of Every Hour🚨

Man imagine the world where these pro Trumpers never existed. It would be so peaceful

Thanks for pushing back against this bullshit MAGA narrative.
