Canada wishes he would just fucking stop yammering on about the 43 lbs of fentanyl the border patrol confiscated in 2024 moving from Canada to the US.
In January 2025 Toronto police seized 475 kg (1047 lbs) of cocaine that came through the Mexico-US border and travelled north to the Canada-US border where it was confiscated, along with another 360 kg (794 lbs) of cocaine. Source
It's Alzheimer's. It has to be...
Reminder that according to the US government's own figures, only 43lbs of fentanyl were seized at the Canadian border last year. That's less than a single suitcase.
Reminder that Trump pardoned Ross Ulbricht, the guy who ran silk road, a dark web site that traded in vast quantities of dangerous and illegal drugs, far, far greater than the amount flowing from Canada to the US.
Reminder that the only reason Trump can impose these tariffs without congress signing off is because they're being imposed under the International Economic Emergency Powers Act which grants the president the authority to enact tariffs in response to a national emergency... Meaning Trump needs there to be an emergency in order to enact tariffs.
If you still think enjoy of this is about fentanyl you're a fucking idiot.
They have seized more eggs from the Canada border than any drugs
Fentanyl isn’t going to “end” — so what they’re saying is that for the next four years, there will either be tariffs or the threat of tariffs.
The price of cocaine is becoming ridiculous because of this.
Won't somebody think of the cocaine?
I swear to fuck i just read another article from 2 hours ago where that Hassent fellow was quoted as saying essentially the opposite of what is quoted here.
These people are a mess. Shrodinger's trade policy. The US economy, a bag of shit and a ketamine addled advisor are placed in a box...
This is exactly why Canada is refusing to lift our tariffs. We're not going to accept a pause or a reduction, or some exemptions; end the trade war, or continue the trade war. Those are the options.
Fentanyl, right. One thing I know is that he doesn't give a shit about anyone else's well-being.
At this stage we need IsTarrifsOn(.)us , to follow this.
