Somebody tell me… have I got it wrong?

By William Corden

Dimwitted Canadian that I am..  😊
If  The Prez has put import duties on us, then doesn’t that mean there will be more supply for the domestic market and therefore our prices will go down?
Won’t our market be flooded with cheap beef, pork,  flour, lumber and fuel?
Our only other serious exports are icebergs, movie stars and music and they’re already down there.
Come on Donald, (and I’m a big fan) give us more… but one tiny word of warning.
We ain’t EVER going to become a U.S. State…. you couldn’t handle the politeness.

  1. Good point! (I’m also a big fan.}
    The other side of the equation is what goods do we Canadians import from the US? And furthermore, will we have to import these same goods from China to make up for the shortfall?

    1. Hi fellow Canadian Keelie !

      From snow bound Vancouver this morning!

      Well, in the heavily medicated alternative reality world I live in, if we don’t impose an import duty on either country, stuff should get cheaper ‘cos it will be easier to sell to us.
      Problem is that there’s only 40 million cold souls live here at the moment, fighting against an army of (combined US and China) 1.7 billion…. whatever they say goes! 😉
