I anticipate unpredictable tension at the very least.
Believe me, it’s very, very easy to think “we are so fucked up here”.
Talking heads on CTV say that the Tories are pressuring Trudeau to recall Parliament; Trudeau may be asking for some guarantee that they won’t vote non-confidence in this crisis.
I wonder if a grand coalition may be needed.
All they want is to call an election. I trust nothing they say. Nothing. I also wouldn’t trust the Liberals,… but I ALWAYS trust the Tories less 
I am disgusted. I’m four miles (straight-line distance) from the Canadian border on the Salish Sea. I’m ashamed. The United States was once the Beacon of Democracy. Now we’re 1930s Germany.
If Trump were to have a very noisy and very smelly and very public bout of explosive diarrhoea, and then have a stoke that left him capable of only uttering animal sounds, I’d laugh and laugh.
Stand up to us, Canada! 
Listening to CBC. They are saying this has something to do with fentanyl. Nonsense! Trump does not care about that. He just pardoned Ross Ulbricht! Drugs are just the legalistic excuse he needs to make an emergency generation stick in our court system.
Oh, but it very much is.
What a waste of time. The fuck would that accomplish?
You can’t blame Trump for being worried about fentanyl. Oh wait… you can blame Trump. Didn’t he just pardon the Silk Road guy?
The federal government has lots of discretionary regulatory powers under existing laws, but if new laws are needed, only Parliament can do that.
Yes. Trump wants to destroy Canada.
From cp24:
In retaliation for U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs, Canada is responding with 25 per cent tariffs on $155 billion worth of American goods.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is announcing the federal government’s phased countermeasures in an address to Canadians from Parliament Hill. In his comments, Trudeau noted the “real” consequences for Americans after Trump’s actions.
The major announcement comes on the heels of weeks of anticipation and diplomatic efforts to avoid this moment, and after Trudeau meet with his cabinet and premiers on Saturday to discuss the national and historic response.
Please, my friend, do whatever you can to look after yourself!
Not much I can do on the micro level, but I’ll do what I can.
I’ve already written to my representatives, both local and national, and exhorted them to do all they can to put a stop to this madness.
I will increase by a lot my consumption of Canadian goods, even if they are much more expensive.
I have a fair bit of mature timber that loggers regularly sniff around and offer to harvest. I expect its value is about to go higher now. I won’t harvest it.
I am so sorry to all my Canadian friends. Americans need to fight this as hard as Canadians will.
Thank you. I am doing my best.
It’s difficult to adjust to daily insanity.
My email to my House and Senate representatives:
Donald Trump is already performing illegal acts as President. His threats to use military force against our allies violates Congress’s authority over treaties and declarations of war. Donald Trump is systematically dismantling the very fabric of the United States. There is ample evidence that he is allied with Russia and wishes to withdraw from NATO. He is a clear and present danger to our democracy. For these reasons, Donald Trump must be impeached, convicted, and removed from office.
I encourage everyone to contact their Senate and House representatives.
Totally agree. And what you wrote is really good. Wish I’d waited till I’d seen what you wrote – I’d have lifted it verbatim!
I should have mentioned that he is in clear violation of the RICO Act.
ETA: Thank you for saying you’d lift it verbatim. There is so much I wish to convey to our lawmakers, and whatever I send seems utterly inadequate.
You hit the most important points very well. That’s the main thing.
