As President. Trump hit Canada and Mexico with widespread tariffs the two countries have announced their “retaliatory” tariffs and it just shows how they are trying to lash out but cannot follow through.
With Canada they announced 25 percent tariffs on imports amounting to up to $155 billion, including alcohol and fruit…. Remember they got hit with 25% tariffs on everything except energy which was hit with 10%. Canada in particular could make the easy move to fix this and they didn’t. Remember mere hours after Trump became President a border patrol agent was murdered along the Canada US border.
Mexico has a much bigger issue in that there federal government is extremely weak. The cartels sadly run vast amounts of the country and their former President allowed it to happen to try and lessen the murders. Sure murders went down but it made more areas narco states and not under the governments power. Now the US is standing up to the BS border policies Mexico allowed and wants the Mexican government to crack down and they have refused.
Both of these governments cannot outlast the US and while the US might take some damage it cannot be compared to what the Canadian and Mexican governments are facing.
