“I have a message for American friends. Yes, Canada is a generous, open country and Canadians are tolerant and kind. But never mistake our generosity for weakness. Never mistake our tolerance for lack of determination. And never, never mistake our kindness for softness."
— Former PM Jean Chrétien, speaking at 9/11 commemoration ceremony in Gander, N.L.

Last night, I voted to begin the process of rolling back tariffs that are driving up costs for American families and straining relationships with our allies. Today, I’ll vote to end the so-called “emergency” tariffs on Canada and get to lowering costs for the American people.

🚨DeSantis DOUBLES DOWN on his plan to make rich snowbirds and Air B&B tycoons foot the WHOLE property tax bill!
“I don't want to cut taxes on Canadian tourists or snowbirds! Why would we do that?
The more we can NOT have Floridians bear, the better it is for our residents!”

Angus: I was just in Western Canada, where our farmers are having a great year—because we’re exporting into what used to be American markets. Your former allies are walking away, leaving your farmers—who voted for you—in what they’re calling Farmageddon.
We’re now talking with Mexico, with Europe, with countries around the world…
Donald—we’re moving on.

Jennings: The Canadians, by the way, do put tariffs on things. We don't talk about that much, but they have done it to us.
Phillip: We have a trade deal that Donald Trump negotiated. And when he talks about tariffs, for example, on dairy that Canada puts on us, what he neglects to mention is that that only hits at a certain level that we don't really get to… if he had a problem with that, he could’ve negotiated that

This week, the world started listening to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. He’s the leader we needed in this moment. I’m going to miss him!

Trudeau: "I heard he talked about banking again this morning in a tweet, which doesn't make any sense because 16 banks are currently active in Canada holding about $113b worth of assets in this country, so American banks are alive and well and prospering in Canada. It's an example of not really being able to see what he wants ... what he wants is to see a total collapse of the Canadian economy, because that'll make it easier to annex us."
