Canada shoots back against Trump tariffs: Letters to the Editor - March 14, 2025
Briefly

The article discusses the implications of President Trump's executive order on reciprocal tariffs, as Canada and the EU retaliate. It emphasizes the potential for tariffs to escalate into a larger economic crisis reminiscent of the Great Depression. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is portrayed as attempting to guide Trump through the economic realities of such actions. Critics argue that the tariffs, while aimed at protecting American workers, ultimately harm them by raising consumer prices and creating tensions not only with allies like Canada but also within the economy at large.
It's shocking that our friends in Canada are outraged over tariffs on their goods while ignoring the imbalance in their own favor. Canadians are fine with imposing tariffs on US products but furious when Washington does the same.
Sadly, all Americans will get kicked. When Trump's tariff wars worsen - and they will - remember that Canada didn't start this. When Americans face higher prices there will be one man to blame: Donald Trump.
