Canada’s Revenge: Trudeau Targets Red States After Trump’s Tariff War

Canada’s Revenge: Trudeau Targets Red States After Trump’s Tariff War

Welp, that escalated quickly. The New York Times just dropped a bombshell: Canada is plotting its revenge against Trump’s new tariffs, and they’re specifically targeting Republican-led states. Yes, you read that right—Trudeau’s about to make MAGA country feel these tariffs in a way that’s going to hurt.

Earlier today, Trump slapped a 25% tariff on Canadian imports and a 10% tariff on Canada’s oil and natural gas exports—a move that, if history tells us anything, means we’re all about to pay more for everything. But now, Canada is getting ready to hit back where it hurts: Red America.

While Trudeau hasn’t yet announced exactly how Canada plans to retaliate, the report says the goal is clear: maximize pain in Republican states to pressure Trump. And here’s the kicker—Trump’s executive order gives him the power to expand tariffs even further if he thinks Canada’s response is a direct attack on him.

So what happens next? Either:

1️⃣ Trump escalates this into a full-blown trade war that makes everything stupendously expensive, OR

2️⃣ Republican governors start begging Trump to walk it back when their states’ economies get kneecapped.

Stay tuned—because this one’s going to get messy.
