WASHINGTON (TNND) —
European Union Chief Ursula von der Leyen vowed Tuesday that U.S. tariffs on steel and aluminum "will not go unanswered" and trigger countermeasures.

"I deeply regret the US decision to impose tariffs on European steel and aluminum exports," von der Leyen said in a statement. "Tariffs are taxes - bad for business, worse for consumers. Unjustified tariffs on the EU will not go unanswered—they will trigger firm and proportionate countermeasures. The EU will act to safeguard its economic interests. We will protect our workers, businesses and consumers."

Last week, directly due to the threats of US tariffs, Prime Minister Trudeau hosted a trade conference with all of the Canadian Preimiers on how to remove as many inter provincial trade barriers as possible. Canada is trying to decouple it's economy away from the USA as fast as possible.

Get it done. Not a good look.

It's time to 'tear down interprovincial trade walls'. But how close are we to doing it?


Often easier for Canadian companies to do business across international borders than within our own country, says Business Council of Alberta



“One of the profound ironies of Canada’s focus on foreign trade is that, in many cases, it is actually easier for Canadian companies to do business across international borders than it is within our own country,” says the Business Council of Alberta.

... in common industry practise, grocery stores consider consumer goods placed on their shelves at eye level, to help to promote a brand. Grocery stores even charge brands a premium to place their goods in these preferred locations.

Across the country, in addition to signs promoting made in Canada product, US made goods are being moved to the bottom row of shelves.

It's absolutely ridiculous

I hope Canadians aren't spitting in each other's water over those inter tariffs on Canadian goods.

That's rich, isn't it?

Canada doesn't even have free trade between its provinces. There's anywhere from a 7-12 percent tariff

Trump slaps new 25% tariffs on Canada for steel and aluminum effective March 4th.

Canada is the USA's largest importer of both products. The USA does not have the domestic capacity to replace either of these imports.

Canada is waiting for the offical US declaration to be published before likely reacting with retaliatory tariffs.

The famous American WWII aircraft, the Mustang, was 100% made from Canadian aluminum.

Current Canadian thinking is that Trump needs to find a way to replace the US treasury's income from potential corporate tax cuts. He thinks tariffs, which are paid direclty to the US treasury, will fund these tax cuts.

Effectively, American consumers will pay for any corporate tax cuts.

And trumpy, like the child he is, said " I can hit you, but you can't hit me". What an intellectually stunted idiot.

So Trump's word of a 30 day pause was a lie

What a surprise
