“Canada has failed to co-operate in curbing the ongoing flood of fentanyl and other illicit drugs, and it has retaliated against the United States for the president’s actions to address this unusual and extraordinary threat,” says the statement.
If I remember correctly most of the fentanyl found was heading north to Canada not south to the US.
Headline should more accurately read: “Trump raises taxes on Americans purchasing goods made in Canada by 35%.”
That would be far to accurate for the GOP base to understand. In fact, Trump himself doesn’t seem to understand this either.
Headline should also read their defence of Trumps emergency powers had a shit day in court and now he’s trying to do a full court press so we sign while he has a semblance of authority here.
