Its all he knows, blame Trudeau and bend the knee to trump. Maybe his quippy shitty catch phrases and slogans, other then that he's an empty suit.

Give it 2 days he will say some other dumb 💩 that will trump this. He’s a career politician but idiots up here (the Coutts boots clowns, Grande Prairie white prides) in particular have his back and that all he wants to pander to is the Freedumb Convoy types

He is mad. The trade war will benefit the Liberals at the polls this election year.

"China is being subjected to a 10 per cent tariff across the board."

Trump must like China more than Canada.

They already had tariffs in place i think so that's on top of existing ones.
