Tariffs 101: Tariffs are not paid by countries. Canada does not pay them to the US. Likewise, the US does not pay them to Canada. The importer from that country imposing the tariffs, pays it. For example, if Trump imposes 50% tariffs on trucks made by GM, but GM... made them in Canada. GM is paying $50K in tariffs. Not Canada. And that $50K extra in tariffs, is ultimately paid by the consumer. Ultimately, it's a tax paid by businesses, passed down to the consumer of the country that imposed the tariffs. Likewise, Canada imposing tariffs on the US, only hurts Canadian customers. Countertariffs are done strategically, to prevent the flight of manufacturing, from Canada, to the US. In the end, during trade wars like this, consumers always end up paying the price.show more

Ben Meiselas on Donald Trump announcing new tariffs on Canada: "The justification is that Canada responded to the US tariffs by imposing retaliatory measures, both formally and also, the Canadian people, elbows up, said, 'We're not going to buy your liquor. If you're going to threaten our sovereignty, we don't want to buy your shit.'"

ABOUT TARIFFS... Can I just explain how wrong Donald Trump sounds to those of us in the import business? He’s bullshitting you. Here’s the truth: I work in imports, and Trump’s claims are false. The importer (the company bringing goods into the U.S.) pays the tariffs, and that cost is added to the price of the product. Depending on the profit margin, part of that cost gets passed on to you, the consumer—but it's not a fixed amount. The country where the product comes from doesn’t pay the tariff. Tariffs are added to the price when the goods arrive in the U.S. So, in the end, WE—the American consumers—are the ones paying the tariffs through higher prices at the store.

The dumbest thing Canada has done to their citizens is engaging in a trade war with America and then convince their citizens that they can win it. 😂 All Canada had to do is remove the tariffs they already had on US goods. The US literally just put reciprocal tariffs on them and Canada continues to act like it’s completely unjustified 🙄

Caller: Only Congress has the right to impose tariffs, that's why it's illegal. Trump does not have the right. Most of those tariffs get passed onto the consumer. Americans are actually paying for the tariff. The businesses pass that cost right down to us. If the Americans have paid the money, it makes sense to give the money back.

CBC reporter is bothered that US media is uninterested in Trump's tariffs on Canada "And you saw an example of that during this press conference in the Oval Office, where the President fielded, you know, several questions, more than a dozen or so, but there was really only 1, 2 questions about Canada and the tariffs." CBC needs to understand that Canada is not really a priority to the US media Julia Wong

If you want to know why tariffs remain in place on Canada, it's because of Carney. Trump removed tariffs from every country except Canada — and wouldn't you know it — China as well! Carney put us in the same place as China in the yes of Trump.

KENNEDY: If Canada came to the US and said, 'We're going to 0 tariffs on the US, all of them are off,' would you and the president go to 0 tariffs and let Canadian companies and American companies compete on a level playing field? BESSENT: Absolutely not

🚨 JUST IN: Canada is FURIOUS after President Trump just slapped 50% tariffs because negotiations went past the deadline TRUMP: "I ONLY MAKE GOOD DEALS!" Mark Carney is now vowing retaliatory tariffs, playing "tough guy" even though we KNOW he will cave to 47 in the end 🔥 "Canada will match those tariffs dollar for dollar." Does Canada not realized they likely could not EXIST without America? Trump will win in the end, like he always does.
