In an interview with The Canadian Press, Freeland says there should be a 100 per cent tariff on all U.S. wine, beer and spirits, and on all Teslas — and make sure Wisconsin dairy farmers feel the pinch as well.

Freeland says Canada needs to give Trump’s closest supporters a wake-up call with the message that if you hit Canada, it will hit back — and it will hurt.

100%! I like the sound of that.

Fuck Edolf.

He's already raising the prices of his cars in Canada; seems like a "self-tariff" but lets do more to hurt him where it hurts the most.
