Canada is too small (by population) to really make a difference. In other words, this will harm Canada more than the United States. BTW, fentanyl does have its medicinal purposes.

I’m in Seattle and have a vacation home in British Columbia so go there often while renting out other days to other people. Wonder how the tariffs gonna affect this. For example if certain things need to be remodeled in my pad over in BC I usually order from suppliers in USA near the border since I use them for my home in Seattle too. I’m guessing it might get taxed now. Not sure how it will play out. I do know that initially tariffs gonna effect lot of people but do believe in general it will get economy better. I recently saw that Mexico been adding tariffs for years for certain USA goods (for example appliances purchased in usa from Mexico will cost another 27% etc) and it’s time for USA do similar things. Just hoping my burrito cost doesn’t keep going up. Was around 8$ several years back and now it’s 14$ in Seattle ?
First-person account of how tariffs may affect personal business and property, with broader economic analysis and price inflation concerns.

Whatever happened to private insurance? If they can’t afford to look after themselves, bill their governments. We are subsidizing foreign governments that are happy their populations are our problem now.

Canada's supply is manipulated by greedy business groups to jack up prices, but regardless, the outcome is that you have no capacity, hence no point bringing more people until the situation stabilizes for existing ones.

You should've visited Cape Breton. Very similar conditions maybe worst. They put us in a housing crisis. Hard to find a place to live causing huge rent hikes.
