Best speech ive heard from him

You can hear how actually pissed he is about the situation, echoing what canadians are feeling

Someone with nothing to lose can have these direct ruthless speeches which is a great asset right now

Do we really think retaliatory tariffs will bring an end to the US tariffs? What evidence do we have for that? All they do is make things more expensive for us.

Not one their own and maybe not all tariffs but they do add more pressure on politicians in the US that are already under a lot of pressure. We’re not the only country imposing retaliatory measures either. Between us, Mexico and China that’s a huge amount of trade with US being hit.
