Trump is moving toward a new tariff on China over allegedly underpriced exports. Apparently the tariff button still has some paint left on it. Consumers may want to keep their wallets in the upright and locked position. #TrumpTariffs

@ChrisCorrigan
I care because #MarkCarney misled us about the #GordieHoweBridge deal; I want to know that he's telling the truth now. And I want to know what he found acceptable in the deal from last Tuesday, and what he found unacceptable in the deal from Friday.I know how I feel about the Trump Administration and what I heard about the deal last week. But I want to know facts; I don't want to have to trust my leaders blindly.

"And if that was the [conclusion] the Americans had drawn about us — and, accordingly, that was certainly the belief held by senior administration figures like J.D. Vance — then capitulation was only ever going to be met with ever more and increasingly onerous demands."

"We have already made too many concessions to the U.S., and we have seen, time and time again, that they neither respect these gestures, nor can be trusted to adhere to any agreement that more concessions might buy us. Worse, we were signalling weakness. We were demonstrating that our national appetite for resistance was confined to the symbolic and the costless."
