18:03 \nTarget: We’re paying tariffs due to purchasing from these foreign suppliers. We have a choice: Find a domestic supplier with comparable prices or pay the increase to tariffs or the smaller increase from switching to domestic. As such, there’s only one thing to do to maintain the profit margin. That thing is raise prices in our domestic locations.\n\nAlso Target: We could also make public statements about the products we sell and what it’s like trying to find an adequate domestic buyer — but if we say something that makes the President’s decision look bad, dear leader might do something even worse for our company and actually cause problems for the CEOs.\n\nStill Target: In the mean time, we’ll wait and see how loudly people complain about prices and wages before we do anything drastic (I.e., anything at all).
Commenter critiques corporate behavior and government policy dynamics, analyzing how tariff policy creates perverse incentives for price increases and corporate self-censorship.

It only took eleven years to destroy not only Canada’s immigration system. The economy, healthcare, education, justice system, and most other of Canada’s institutions. And throw in government overreach.. it’s a failed country. Period.

I voted for Trump and a lot of his policies and actions I agree with, THIS one I do not, Canada did not let in NEARLY as many illegal immigrants as Mexico so it makes no sense why he is punishing them, and he isn't, he just doesn't like Trudeau probably because he was friends or friendly with Biden, same with Zelensky AND Canada wanted to ban products from red states for electing him which is frankly just a stupid policy. \nThis is not hard to figure out, Trump doesn't like Trudeau and Ford, plain and simple......it really is THAT shallow, he is trolling Trudeau by calling them the 51st state and anyone know knows Trump and how he thinks knows that.
Analyzes Trump's trade policy toward Canada, comparing immigration levels to Mexico and critiquing the policy rationale while attributing motives to Trump's personal preferences.
