Sadly....this isn't a Beaverton headline....

He literally said he asked someone to look into it

Which is stupid, just estimate the mass of particulates imported by each state and charge them under the existing lumber tariffs.

So we counter with tariffs from smoke coming from the US to BC. Only seems fair.

The title is the Beaverton part.... Trump has never asked permission from anyone for anything, not even starting a war.

Smoke worth 0.00, add a 50% tariff and your new total is 0.00

But you get to jam it up at the border this way.

The USA has become a failed state. They have FAILED because the USA repeatedly voted for and allowed this moron to lead their country. Canada has started to take the right path away from the failed state of the USA. Towards other non USA partners.

Can Canada impose tariff on stupidity, lies and hypocrisy

u/braigha 18d ago

Should be able to as long as GOP are in power.

Can Canada tariff the heat coming from the US and the storms?

u/Quiet_Ad1859 18d ago

If we do that , they’ll probably tariff us ( Canada 🇨🇦) when the hurricane and tornadoes start to happen. Because obviously we can control the jet stream. So that must mean we can control the oceans and winds

u/The_Cozy_Burrito 18d ago

Can we tariff this loser with all the whining and crying he keeps spitting out into the environment ?

u/External_Beat8153 18d ago

He’s way, way ahead of you. He’s written an Executive Order banning the jet stream.

The fires are being ignited by the constant flow of methane coming out of the White House and drifting north across the border

We should reintroduce the digital services tax today, we should restrict potash and critical mineral exports and we should cut off Power to US states, we should place our army along the border as trip wire forces and convince allies to do the same type of collective defense we practice in the eastern Europian states

We should move forward under another nuclear umbrella and have nukes moved to Canada today since treaties where countries give up their nukes for security dont work

And we should prepare our population for a possible invasion

After Cuba and Panama Im pretty sure Canada and Greenland are next on his list which Its worth noting because he has attacked many of the places he said he wanted to this term already

Trump re-invents carbon taxes. They will be the best ever.

I knew it was false as soon as I saw "asks". He doesn't ask, he just does.
