Trump team says border tax on Canadian vehicles is part of the plan

[chuckChuck]

So how many Canadian Trump supporters are going to standby while the U.S. Goes against freer trade and starts taxing imports which will likely include ag imports as well?

[bucket]

Trudeau is taxing us ....why not trump as well....who is going to stop them .....

Sounds great! Best news I have heard from you in a long time. Any word on % tax? Hopefully something substantial like 30% or better. Not some joke like 5%. Always look forward to union schmucks suffering and losing jobs. Chuck, you just made my day, thank you.

So you guys have no concerns when Canadian exports to the U.S. Decline? In fact that sounds exactly what you want to happen so it will get rid of Canadian jobs in the auto sector.

That is a pretty stupid position to take!

dont worry chuck canada will impose tax burdens on the solar panels its all good

[Hamloc]

Actually Chuck2 I think there are economic storm clouds on the horizon that will be very costly for Canada. Not sure any Canadian leader is ready!

Canada should of phoned congratulated him and said we will work together as friends because some time you have to pet a crocodile to get past the gate.

Really JT screwed up with his useless carbon tax etc.

We have a light weight taking on the USA.

Were in trouble. big time.

Short term it is a slap. Longer term, it doesn't mean much as currencies adjust to account for the US tax.

It's the internal taxes that continuously damage an economy. JT has lots of those in mind, and in action to clobber Canada with.

The carbon tax is already putting an uncompetitive disadvantage for Ontario vs Ohio or Michigan.
Trump isn't a fan of auto companies relocating factories to other countries and sending them back to USA to sell.
Trump is bringing jobs to the USA by renegotiating trade deals and will soon be kicking off a "Made in USA" program.

Trudeau is bringing higher costs and carbon taxes to Canadian businesses......and now wants to phase out the 3rd largest oil deposit in the world!!

If it helps to crush the bloated unions and send the Ontario rainbow and sunshine dimwits a wake up call, I am all for it. Prices of new vehicles is beyond the realm of reality and autoworkers is just a cover term for overpaid assembly line worker.
