In a trade war, the one who can resist inflation and give in to pressure last wins. To know who wins, just look at the side with the bigger economy.

Canada has not been straight with the US. I am IBEW. I have work side-by-side with countless Canadians who are in the IBW. I have never worked side-by-side with the US IBEW worker who has ever worked in Canada. Also Canada has been subsidizing their lumber mills for years, not charging them for The timber so they have an unfair advantage. Let’s let Canada pay their fair share to protect themselves instead of depend on the US to protect them.
Combines personal work experience with economic grievances about subsidies and unfair trade advantages, arguing Canada should pay more for defense.

Even before the actions taken by Canada, one should look at balance of Fentanyl illegal trade. \n \nOn average 46 lb of Fentanyl were smuggled from Canada to US , which divided by the population of the US comes to a 0.049 mg of fentanyl per US Citizen \nOn the other direction, 950 lb Fentanyl were smugeled from the from US to Canada, which when divided by the population of Canada, ends up being 10.88 mg of fentanyl per Canadian Citizen\nNow, scientists say 2 mg is a lethal dose. \nJust think about it, trump's US could kill each Canadian 5 times over by Fentanyl. \nSo who is supposed to be pissed?
Uses statistical comparison of fentanyl smuggling between countries to argue about relative harm and economic/security impact, framed as a comparative analysis.

President Trump’s tariffs on Canada are essential to protecting American jobs and industries from unfair trade practices. Trudeau’s corrupt leadership has exploited the U.S. for years while failing to curb the fentanyl crisis that devastates American communities. His government’s scandals and suppression of dissent prove Canada is no longer a reliable partner. These tariffs aren’t about punishment—they’re about securing America’s future, restoring fair trade, and putting American workers first.
Justifies tariffs on economic grounds (protecting jobs, fair trade) while making unverified claims about Trudeau's corruption and fentanyl failure.

Tariffs bring in cash INSTANTLY to his treasury, so that he can spend it instantly on tax cuts. Any other income generating taxes need laws to pass Congress and will not produce CASH for years...

Donald thinks he is running a business with profit and loss. Does he reliaze that by increasing Tariffs he is hurting Americans? Eventually, Canada will find other markets to sell their products.

The real reason for the tariffs is because it has never been fair for the United States we pay more taxes for products in Canada in Mexico in Europe and it's always been like that and it's sad that it has to come to this in order for everybody to pay their fair share.
