Trudeau is a WEF puppet. A tariff war between Canada and the U.S. is ridiculous to begin with, and it will certainly have negative consequences for the U.S., but much more so for Canada. Let's face it, the U.S. internal market is several times that of Canada. Many businesses in Canada exist only because of their trade with the U.S. The same is not true for the U.S. Trudeau can paint whatever picture he wants to Canadians, but the Trump administration is not made of fools and they are very much aware of the reasons they have for having enforced the tariffs.
Analyzes economic asymmetry between nations and tariff impact, with unsubstantiated 'WEF puppet' claim.

If tariffs only affect Americans and have no effect on the country, they’re being imposed against. Why is Canada so flustered by the tariffs? Is it because after all Canada does pay for the tariffs and not the American consumer? Or is it an ego thing?

Most Americans do not want to support Canada with our tax dollars. We have had a huge trade deficit with them for decades and we are the only military they have outside of a bad joke with no punchline. Canada needs to support itself militarily and financially.
