They are trying to divide us. It's more important than ever to turn off the tap.

Canadian oil and gas could be excluded from U.S. tariffs, Trump’s Energy Secretary says

Canadian oil and gas could be excluded from U.S. tariffs, Trump’s Energy Secretary says it’s ‘certainly possible’ that the U.S. could reach an agreement with Canada and Mexico to eliminate tariffs on energy products

So what? Until all tariffs are dropped, we need to keep ours in place, period. Elbows up 🍁
If they want our natural resources, then they need to remove the tariffs from our other exports. We should add an export tariff to oil and gas until the other tariffs are dropped.
- Agreed. Sounds like we should put a 25% export tariff on it.
  
  Fully agreed. And probably more effective and feasible than actually turning off the tap. Reinvest the proceeds into green energy.
- I agree we need to add a surcharge to our energy output to the US but expect Smith and Saskatchewan’s DUI hire to get all mad.
I mean, that's like 20/25% of Canada's total exports to Mordor. I assume we'll see the same climb down on most other natural resources, with the exception of lumber, for a total of about 40/50% of all exports.
All against the backdrop of the endless whining, "we don't need Canada for anything.'
"We're going to whine so much, you're going to be so sick and tired of whining."
non paywall?
