Previous to the lyrical dust-up between Compton native Kendrick Lamar and Canadian goose Drake, Canada has traditionally been one of many kindest nations on the planet. Residents don’t lock their doorways, they usually have free healthcare and actually goofy and tender accents.
So why on Rihanna’s inexperienced Earth is the president of people who find themselves shopping for poorly-made trash can vans to personal the libs, making an attempt to beef with Canada? Canada doesn’t hassle anybody. They’re fairly actually the bodily embodiment of consuming their water and minding their enterprise.

Possibly, and I’m not a moderator, however simply possibly that’s as a result of Trump retains claiming that he’s going to make their nation America’s 51st state! Oh, and he can’t cease speaking about Canada’s former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, regardless that he misplaced his place as Canada’s most important man to Mark Carney final week.
“Now, this was Trudeau—good previous Justin. I name him ‘Governor Trudeau.’ His individuals have been nasty, they usually weren’t telling the reality. They by no means inform the reality,” Trump stated. “You already know, they’d say, ‘We don’t cost,’ they usually do, they cost super.”
Having hassle working via Trump’s phrase salad? Let me see if I can assist.
Trump doesn’t perceive how tariffs work so he retains claiming that he’s going to tax the nation that sends items to America. The issue is the corporate/nation that’s being charged the tariff merely passes that cost on to the buyer. In protection of tariffs, Trump started making every kind of fictitious claims (learn lies) about Canada.
Like this one: “In Canada, we discover that they’re charging us over 200% for dairy merchandise… And once I left, we had that effectively taken care of, however below Biden they only saved elevating it.”

CBS Information discovered this declare to be ridiculously false.
“President Trump has steered Canada unfairly put tariffs of over 200% on American dairy merchandise throughout President Biden’s time period, however the degree has been unchanged since earlier than Biden took workplace.”
“The over 200% tariffs on U.S. dairy merchandise are solely triggered if U.S. dairy exports exceed sure yearly duty-free limits, and U.S. dairy producers say they’ve by no means been near exceeding these limits.”
However why would we hassle Trump with the reality when his lies serve a goal? It’s simply complicated that his goal appears to be choosing a combat with Canada, and Canada don’t hassle no one.
