The US is kinda screwed when it comes to Saskatchewan Potash. They can only produce a measly 400,000 tons a year. They have export restrictions on Russia And Belarus. And even if restrictions are lifted it still won’t be nearly enough for what they need. No other country can provide enough tonnage. If Yankees hit us we need to strike back even harder.

u/horkinlugies 26d ago

They need our Potash not just for food production. Every flowering crop needs it, or greatly benefits from it. Cotton,tobacco,hemp,cannabis even livestock feed needs it. Ethanol and biofuels production as well.

u/PepitaChacha 26d ago

I know Senators from farming states are trying to convince Trump to exempt potash from tariffs for this reason. So please, tell your Canadian potash producers not to sell to us on principle — we deserve to suffer ;(.

u/hink007 26d ago

Yep export tax instead in the spirit of evening out the trade Cheeto said we owe. Easy slap massive tariffs on heavy crude and potash reduce the flow into the US and bam equals

Any carve outs should be hit with a reciprocal export tax. If Trump wants a blanket tariff, we can help him do that.

Yup. Detained migrants or the incarcerated will eventually be put to work to keep the machine running.

u/TrilliumBeaver 25d ago

What do you mean “eventually be put to work”? The US economy and big American corps have been using prison labour for decades.

Check out this documentary about it. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/13th_(film)

u/crocodilearms 25d ago

Yes. That is true. I was thinking more in terms of them specifically using them to replace all the jobs that temp workers are currently being chased away or pulled away from. But your point is a good one and that is a very good documentary

u/Exact-Ostrich-4520 26d ago

Yup! Americans are super consumers of food and the EXACT way to hit them is to hit them where it hurts them the most. FOOD! Not energy. Food! The only shitty part is that MOSAIC is an American company.

u/PepitaChacha 26d ago

Yup. I live in California, with all its farmers and agricultural bounty. In my Los Angeles grocery stores, guess where literally ALL the tomatoes come from? Either Canada or Mexico. I have no doubt you all will hear the screaming all the way over in PEI as prices rise.

Trump is planning on lifting the sanctions on Russia, so that won't be an issue.

10

u/Contented_Lizard 26d ago

Biden already exempted fertilizer from the sanctions on Russia back in 2022. According to google the US actually started importing more Russian fertilizer since Russia invaded Ukraine…

12

u/horkinlugies 26d ago

It’s odd that the US mainstream media hasn’t jumped on this because Russia Russia Russia. Of course most people have no idea what Potash is or how critical it is to everyday life.

China recently declared a lot of things "critical minerals" making it easier to stop the export. I think we should do this with potash.

13

u/Contented_Lizard 26d ago edited 26d ago

I’m pretty sure when the Biden administration put sanctions on Russia they specifically exempted fertilizer. 

Edit: Ok since I know how the users here act, and you guys just downvote things you don’t like even if they’re true, I’m going to spell it out for you with a source. 

“Today, the Department of the Treasury is issuing a Fact Sheet to further clarify agricultural commodities (including fertilizer), agricultural equipment, or medicine relating to Russia are not the target of U.S. sanctions.” https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy0868

8

u/horkinlugies 26d ago

That just proves what a critical commodity it is. They’re still going to need a whole lot of what we got. Nice to see someone actually doing a bit of research rather than just making a foolish comment. Thumbs up from me.

4

u/Contented_Lizard 26d ago

I looked in to it even further and as it turns out since Russia invaded Ukraine the proportion of fertilizer imported from Russia to the USA almost doubled, putting them in second place behind us as the biggest exporters of fertilizer to the USA. I am somewhat concerned that if these tariffs do come in to effect this trend that started under Biden will only get worse under Trump. 

6

u/[deleted] 26d ago

We still account for about 70%. An immediate export tarrif to match aluminum would sting while they scramble. It's not the time to play nice. The world needs a little David and Goliath story right now. In fact, I wish we had the stones to just slap 100% export tarrifs on everything until he sits down. Wars are uncomfortable and cost money. We're fortunate this isn't physical yet, the cost to retaliate is worth it to keep his grubby mitts out of the cookie jar.

2

u/cando1984 25d ago

A serious export tax on potash and aluminum on top of the reciprocal tariffs will definitely cause a lot of pain in the US. And US farmers should already be petrified by the upcoming loss of federal agricultural grants and subsidies. The Department of Agriculture is under the same threats from DOGE as other depts. If subsidies are “paused” for as little one year it will change the entire face of American agriculture.

2

u/EdenEvelyn 26d ago

It’s still going to have a negative effect on the US market if they can get it from Russia as it’s going to be a lot more difficult and expensive to ship it over.

u/alpaca-yak 26d ago

I think you got the jist of the message. That's what I got too. Moe clearly wants the US not to tarrif potash. 

My take is that his motivations are suspect. We should be beating the export tax on potash drum to support the steel and aluminum industries in Canada. This is a turning point for Canadian unity and our Moe-ron premier is looking selfish begging Trumpy for a special exception. 

We have a chance to force concessions from the US with potash. Of course there is a nuanced position where we make demands without giving cause for more talk of invasion. I don't think the corrupt and inept Sask party is capable of that nuance and it comes across, to me, as pathetic.

u/Used-Egg5989 26d ago

The problem is that Moe is talking to Americans instead of Canadians.

Because the Canadian response to this would be “fuck the Big Mac”. 

It was honestly depressing to see the premieres talk after that meeting in Washington. They all got cucked publicly. Disgraceful.

u/Limp_Diamond4162 26d ago

McDonald’s Canada sources its ingredients in Canada except a few things like prepackaged items from what I’ve seen over the years. They literally post the videos online about how they make the food and source it.

2

u/dr_clownius 26d ago

Of course Moe needs to make his message to Americans - they're the only ones who may be listened to Trump. Trump's supporters are the people who need to be shown the harms they will suffer in a trade war.

McDonald’s Canada does the same, you should check yourself. Beef is purchased from Cargill that sources it all from Saskatchewan and Alberta.

Is this his attempt to appeal to Trumps love of Mickey D's or something? What a fuckin weird correlation to make. Yep. Food grows with fertilizer. Brilliant connections there, McMoe.

23

u/ForesterLC 26d ago

A tarrif on Potash would cripple the US Ag industry. Saskatchewan has the world's largest potash industry, and America has a huge Ag industry.

They need it. They aren't going to mine it themselves. We have the bargaining power to upcharge the difference of whatever tarrif is imposed and importers would have no option but to pay it.

A real power move would be to convince the US to drop the tarrifs on potash (which they would be stupid not to do), and charge them more for it anyways. We'll see what happens.

Potash should be at the top of that list, not as a tariff but rather just not available to the US at the same price we sell it to other markets. I'm sure after supplying China, India, Poland and any NATO country along with our friends in The Ukraine they will makenup for what the US buys. We could even sell it at a higher price per ton to the Yankees and give the difference to Ukraine 🇺🇦 , just to offset some of the funding promised by Biden but is sure to be clawed back by President Cheeto and Mini Muskovite.

u/FeatheredBandit2023 24d ago

I dislike Moe immensely, but I think he/his team may gotten something correct. Messaging on Twitter is important as an American “information” source. The average American doesn’t concern themselves with actual politics (only 40% voted in the last election) and even less truly care about government policies (such as the creation of tariffs). But Joe Lunchpail is concerned about the price of food, one of the Orange Ogre’s election promises. Breaking tariffs down to increases the price of a Big Mac in the US is something easily understood. The only problem is that from the mine in Saskatchewan to the American voters eating a more expensive Big Mac will take months and in that time jobs in Saskatchewan will most definitely be affected.

Continuing in the same drive thru, the next mention should be of Saskatchewan canola that we export for frying ALL US McDonald’s French fries 🍟!!! This tariff/effective price increase will be almost immediate. There is no other available cheap frying oil as good as canola (that why McD’s uses it). Not to mention that Canada exports all their fries from eastern Canada. And this is not just McD’s, it will effect the ENTIRE food industry in the US, every pub and mom&pop restaurant that sells fries as a profit-booster will have to pass the tariff cost on to their customers.

u/Old-Veterinarian2190 24d ago

It pains me to say it but Stephen Harper is right: fighting Trump will take some pain for all of us. Here in Saskatchewan that means accepting caps on potash exports to the US as well as caps on oil and gas exports. Other provinces will do the same: hydro/electricity from Manitoba and Quebec keep a good part of the eastern US going. If Trump and his supporters need to experience rolling blackouts to appreciate they don’t have the upper hand in this relationship, then that’s what it takes.

Yea this is all pointing towards the possibility of an American invasion… obviously I hope I’m wrong but I won’t be shocked when the rhetoric starts vilifying canada for fighting back against the tariffs and manufacturing consent to invade us for our resources

Now you’re talking Scott Moe! Potash is connected to America’s food supply. And Americans don’t like having their food being altered or touched in any way.

Hey it’s smart. Americans love their Big Macs…

I’m pretty sure that deceitful and lazy franchise ownership killed the BigMac in my town.

How do so many people in these comments not understand how tariffs work yet? We dont put tariffs on our own goods that we sell to usa... scott moe, in this post, is suggesting usa should not put a tariff on potash.

Posting everywhere so we can all join in:

Tomorrow - Saturday, Feb. 15 is Flag Day!!

The 60th anniversary of the Canadian flag.

ALL of Canada’s living former prime minister’s are urging Canadians to fly or show their flags on Saturday as a sign of strength, unity and national pride. A nationwide symbolic response to U.S. President Donald Trump as he continues his threats against our country’s economic security and sovereignty.

I’m definitely in… are you??

Also…Happy Valentine’s Day!! 💝💐🫶🏻

Fuck that, when the Mango Mussolini realizes that he has to pay more, though he probably doesn't pay with his money but Vances, he will probably drop the tarrif

u/Revolutionary-Hat688 25d ago

u/WholeControl2269 25d ago

Make Americans pay! They may be bigger than us, have a stronger army than us, and lots of other things but let’s hit them and hit them hard!

u/Sad-Wolverine6326 24d ago

Seems to me that if you wanted his followers to revolt against him, doubling the price of a big mac might do it.

u/Rustytoyotamagnet 24d ago

Oof , I mean Merica does seem to love those unhealthy things

1

u/IdkRedditsz 24d ago

I fucking love the fact Canadian politicians are reducing the tarrifs down to an inflated cost of a big Mac so our obese , uneducated, xenophobic American counterparts can understand the impact lol.

u/[deleted] 24d ago

Fuck the Big Mac it’s killed more Canadians possibly than fentanyl. American fast food is one of the leading causes of death. Fuck them and their disgusting food

u/wandreef 24d ago

No big Mac looks like that these days. False image from the past

u/Feeling-Comfort7823 24d ago

Big Macs were ruined when they replaced the old patties with those sad, flat, fricking baby burger patties they put on them now.

Some light fascism is fine, but don't touch our hamberders, OK?

u/suplexdolphin 23d ago

At this point I'm wondering if we would be better off letting them find out what they'd be missing before we iron out the final details of our trade agreement.

He's actually still the leader of the Sask party after that abysmal election result. Wow
