Dont put Tariffs on the USA as they are passed onto the end user/consumer which are the American people. Put the prices up on your sale of electricity, oil and gas 25% that the US government buys, so it hits them first and they will think twice. ..... Trump never mentioned cost of living in his acceptance speech which had us wondering. This is why.
Proposes an economic counter-strategy to tariffs by raising prices on energy exports, focusing on economic impact and consumer costs.

Inflation is to the roof, Make food and housing affordable, please people just help impeach him, he is golfing while the american people are struggling everyday.... He is just trying to pass stupid laws that keep getting blocked by courts, Come on Trump supporters try helping fix it by calling your local office and impeach him, I bet anyone else is better than Trump, we know the country needs changes but we are still the biggest economy of the world the richest country, Why do we have to feel like is normal not to have affordable food and housing?? The basics of life... All the immigrants are gone, They even left by their own will, and Some Americans left to other countries, Mexico, Europe, Asia..... What do you guys want?? Having an empty country once was the biggest economy of the world?? Is just crazy even a blind person can see he is destroying the whole country..... He is not even a good business person we all know he didn't payed taxes, he went bankrupt so many times he knows how to scam people, Saying the USA government doesn't work because he feels like it, Just travel people so you can see the difference between usa government and other governments around the world........
Primarily focuses on inflation, housing, and food affordability as core economic grievances, with calls to action and international comparisons.

Trudeau should be our next Prime Minister...!!! ?\nOur economies are so inter-twined because it WORKS! So many American companies have set-up plants in Canada in order to profit from doing business here. It's not just products that we MUTUALLY benefit from selling to each other, the US generates significant profits from its many operations in Canada, and those $Billions of dollars in profits that go back to American Investors is not included in the 'Trade Imbalance' that is a justification for the tariffs. With those profits included, I'd bet Canada is the nation with the imbalance not in its favor...
Detailed economic analysis of US-Canada trade relationships, profits, and tariff justifications with data-driven critique.

I still stand with Trump and Elon and Doge. Canada‘s government has to be crooked too look at what the average Canadian spends on a mortgage . Their citizens not in good shape.

"Alberta was calling" because there was a labour shortage. Now it's different. Policies adapt to current needs and future expectations. As a regular person, I just wish my kid could have room for lunch inside during school and us don't need to wait weeks to fix broken bone.

Discusses labor market dynamics and current economic/social pressures (housing, healthcare) while acknowledging policy adaptation to needs.
