Every damned spreadsheet should have the header locked so that you can quickly know what you are looking at after row 25. You can't change my mind.
I want to apologize to you guys. I’m sorry you’re forced to suffer for my country’s stupidity voting in this dipshit. You don’t deserve this.
I do love that your government is clapping back against the bully, because only terrible things follow when you appease fascists.
But it’s regular Canadians getting squeezed in the middle as a consequence. For both our sakes I hope this ends soon
I feel the same way. On the one hand, there’s nobody else I’d rather have slap sense into us than one of our closest allies. But average Canadians don’t deserve to be wrapped up in our godawful drama. Here’s hoping they can hit us hard enough to get back on the right track sooner rather than later.
I appreciate the sentiment, but please gather together with your friends and neighbors and fix your country's shit.
No, I don't have a step-by-step plan to give you, it's your country, you should know better than me what's effective where you live.
Disappointed to not see Tesla on the list. Target the oligarchs behind this.
Hopefully that will be on the second round of teriffs i n 3 weeks?
yea, throw a nice 50-100% tariff on those
Well old Doug the drug dealer did step up.
Those are imported from the Shanghai factory, apparently
Debating heading out to stock up on deodorant and other storable goods. Not that I want to buy American right now, just that historically domestic alternatives simply raise prices to match the tarrif product prices in an effort to profit take.
Costco and gas stations have been INSANE all weekend
That's a reasonable thing to do. Simply because it doesn't go bad and you don't know what'll happen just now.
Just immediately stop sending electricity and oil. At any price.
It would do less damage to the Canadian economy than these tariffs and be resolved a lot sooner.

These are all digital services. Europe has strong data protection and privacy regulation. The US tech billionaires throwing in their lot with the Trump administration gives them plenty of leverage if push comes to shove.
Oh wonderful I wanted to switch to Deezer anyway. And I use Qwant and Brave already.
I also love the NDP idea to target the techbro CEOs by putting a halt on critical minerals exports to the USA.
Tariff Item No. 1205.10.00
Rape from the US is now being taxed. I guess I'll just stick with Canadian rape, keep it local.
One of the worse named plants of all time, thanks Latin.
And that's why we renamed it "Canada oil" aka Canola
Canada Oil Low Acid, to be precise.
Well, part of the reason. "Canola" is really only the edible variant, which is now a bit more than fifty years old. Older cultivars contained large amounts of erucic acid, which apparently is neither tasty nor very good for you.
I don't know whether anyone still grows the non-canola rapeseed cultivars as a cash crop.
Thanks, I could not understand what they were talking about 😂
I see "Maple sugar and maple syrup" on the list. That will show Canada who is boss.
Seriously though, I'd imagine an extra 25% cost on US food goods will lead to them being sourced somewhere else rather than pay that.
Fuck me thats a long list. Here's a summary in the order I found them. Probably missed a few, I'm on mobile and it's Sunday...
Video game consoles.Stick with local produce. We grow a lot in Canada.
Nearly all the beans/legumes on store shelves are from Canada.
This one is difficult, especially almonds. We do have a thriving seed industry: hemp, flax, etc.
What coffee comes from the USA?? Canadian roasters are everywhere and they import beans from South America.
Same as above, get your tea from Japan, China, India, etc.
Seasoning blends are very often from the states, but look for local blends. Or get single spices and make your own! Or go ethnic, and get spices from Asia, Mexico, etc.
Canada grows wheat, oats, wild rice, barley, rye, etc. No issues here. Get Asian rice if your worried about rice.
We produce a lot of cooking oil in Canada. For olive oil (not really a cooking oil), go with Italian.
China, Brazil, and India produce more than the US. We can get it from them.
Go with Swiss chocolate.
Plenty of made in Canada pasta. Go with Italian if you want another option.
With the exception of citrus, some processed junk food, and a few odds and ends, Canada is quite food secure.
If animal products are a concern, stop eating them. Make tarrifs your excuse to go plant-based this year 👍
Just to note that American rice tends to have high levels of heavy metals. So even without tariffs you shouldn't be buying American rice.
I am so so so glad I'm vegan. Also the fucking H5N1 virus is bad news bears. Now is really a good time to stop eating animal products even for your own safety because holy fuck.
Fruits and veg are the tough one. We don’t grow a whole lot of fresh green veggies in the winter. We don’t grow any citrus fruits whatsoever. We don’t grow berries in the winter.
Basically if you only eat local produce you’re going to be living entirely off preserves for half the year, the way my grandparents did a hundred years ago.
Unless of course you have a lot of space in your house to set up grow lights and grow your own greens indoors. I’m looking at that but it’s not easy to grow head lettuces like romaine that way.
Seems like this is limited to arcade machines and playing cards.
Fair. I was tired of scrolling on a touch screen by that point. Didn't look too closely
That seems less targeted than I had expected.
TBH I'm in favour of a full embargo. Halt trade altogether.
It's almost entirely things that we also make ourselves, or can get from other, more friendly countries.
Or things that we can comfortably do without for an extended time (playing cards and jewelry, for example)
I guess I’ll just skip those items
Realizes it’s almost all food
Well shit… at least I don’t need sand anytime soon.
I'm sure you can find food that isn't imported from the US.
Keep in mind that a huge percent of food you find in Canada is made from Canadian ingredients.
The list covers every we could import, but most of those are produced in Canada, just read the labels.
Keep in mind, the response is targeted at products that we actually produce in Canada. There should be Canadian alternatives to all of these.
Eggs, milk, cheese, butter, all of it.
Turkey. Turkey is a big one
While it is an extensive list, none of those are things that we can't get elsewhere, or that we don't already make ourselves.
Or things that we can't do without for a while.
Apparently we export several billions of dollars worth of munitions a supplies to the US and various other countries. Lots of embarrassingly authoritarian countries on the list.
