Trump Shoved Tariffs in Left's Face - Ep 25-052

from Speak Freely Podcast with Patrick Howley · host Spreely Media

[EP 25-052] If you thought Trump’s tariff threats were just political theater, tell that to the foreign exchange markets. The Canadian dollar nosedived to its lowest level since 2003 after Trump’s tariff announcement. The Mexican peso crashed to its weakest point since 2020. It’s almost poetic. Canada is wailing about a 25% tariff while quietly accepting a 20% carbon tax hike on April 1st of last year. You can’t make this stuff up. Trudeau taxes his own citizens into submission, but when Trump asks them to pay their fair share, it’s suddenly a national crisis. As for America? Looks like we might have to say goodbye to maple syrup, and “Canadian bacon”. Canada’s Free Ride Is Over For decades, Canada has played the wide-eyed innocent neighbor while quietly stacking tariffs on American goods like a compulsive hoarder. Here’s a quick reality check on how “fair trade” has worked so far. These are some of the tariffs from Canada on the U.S. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support .
