Trump Unveils New Canadian Import Bans, Giving Ottawa 3 Weeks
to Respond

President Donald Trump is escalating the trade war with
Canada by ordering a ban on Canadian dairy products, most
alcoholic beverages, and motorcycles, with the restrictions
set to take effect in three weeks.

The new measures, reported by Axios and confirmed by other
outlets, came Tuesday after Canada imposed retaliatory tariffs
on roughly $20 billion worth of U.S. goods, marking another
sharp escalation in an 18-month trade dispute between the two
longtime trading partners.

The three-week delay creates a potentially important window
for negotiations before the new U.S. restrictions take effect.

President Donald Trump is escalating the trade war with Canada by
ordering a ban on Canadian dairy products, most alcoholic beverages, and motorcycles, with the restrictions set to take effect in three weeks.

The new measures, reported by Axios and confirmed by other
outlets, came Tuesday after Canada imposed retaliatory tariffs
on roughly $20 billion worth of U.S. goods, marking another
sharp escalation in an 18-month trade dispute between the two
longtime trading partners.

The three-week delay creates a potentially important window
for negotiations before the new U.S. restrictions take effect.

The administration's latest move also goes beyond tariffs,
reflecting the broader trade strategy described by Axios in
a report Tuesday as Trump considers using outright import
bans as a new weapon against foreign countries. Trump has
separately threatened to block Canadian aircraft manufacturer
Bombardier from selling jets in the United States.

Trump also moved Tuesday to restrict Canadian products from
large, long-term U.S. government contracts

Ok ... Canada HAD been kinda leeching on the USA since
WW2/Cold-War. We let 'em do it because, in that environ,
it was worth the rip-offs.

Well, that was THEN.

On the flip, we still kinda want/need Canada - and
also have not given it time to establish new trade
agreements with other nations to make up for what
they lose with the USA. Maybe they CAN'T sell to
others at the usual prices ... that's their prob.
Might have to drop most of the Evil Nanny State ...

CanadIANS are OK, good - but the GOVERNMENTS they
have been picking of late ... wow ...... they ARE
becoming more and more a Chinese province. Not Great.

Oh, and don't get SICK there ... the docs WILL find
some excuse to give you a fatal shot - it's their
solution to everything now ...... what's that SAY ?
SOME kind of mass cult psychosis at minimum.
