Premiers are split: some demand retaliatory tariffs, others are stunned—so stunned one asked to remove Canada’s friendship statement from a U.S. site. Amid the chaos, they still need to tackle healthcare, wildfires, and national unity, including looming referendums on Alberta’s status and Quebec independence. This trade showdown is now the centerpiece of their already packed agenda. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
