Summary

Canada will file a WTO complaint and seek redress under the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement (CUSMA) against Trump’s new tariffs, calling them a violation of trade commitments.

Trump imposed 25% tariffs on most Canadian imports, with a 10% levy on energy.

In response, Canada announced $30 billion in counter-tariffs on 1,256 U.S. goods, with a potential second round reaching $155 billion.

Officials hope the U.S. reconsiders, but further measures remain an option.

        Currently, Palestinians.

        The US is also hellbent on exterminating dolphins and every other living creature until we can achieve a Mad Max apocalypse.

          I’m so sick of this Zionist shit. Blaming the US for Israels genocide is grotesque. It’s their genocide and they can fucking stop at any time.

            Well, yes, but Americans support Zionism, and genocide is something the current president has explicitly endorsed.

            Religion is a monstrous evil.

              There are many nations that support Israels genocide. It makes them all complicit even in abstention. Israel still has all the power to stop at any time.
