The drama between Canada and the U.S. continues to brew hotter than a feud on The Real Housewives.
In his latest catty act, U.S. President Donald Trump said he plans to announce a 25 per cent tariff on steel and aluminum — and neither Canada nor Mexico are exempt, despite what was supposed to be a 30-day pause on tariff threats.
Canada is the United States’ biggest source of imported aluminum and steel, making this a fun game of mutually-assured financial destruction.
Meanwhile, as Trump continues to attack his closest allies, he continues to “flood the zone” domestically. But a pesky little thing called “the rule of law” keeps getting in his way, much to his cronies’ chagrin.
This is going to be a major test of the health of U.S. democracy — and the grade they get will help us understand just how much damage the Trump administration will be capable of doing.
