Toronto – President Donald Trump’s tariff for Canadian goods, which comes in the wake of his ridiculous threats to make the 51st country in the American state, has been eroded by the eaters of the literature of North American neighbors and their weeds about their flag.
Canadians remove American wines and California from their store shelves. They are retreating from the future visits of the United States, which pay a “Canadian purchase” to face high costs and Trump. They are unusually waving the unusual anger about what they see as betrayal of a long -term friend.
“I will not visit America again,” Angela Chen, a university student, told NBC News as she left the ice skating circuit in the center of Toronto. “You don’t stab the back of your friend.”

Trump announced a 25 % tariff this week on most Canadian imports. His decision two days after exemption from the customs tariff about 38 % of Canadian goods that are compatible with the trade deal in North America, which negotiated during its first term, sparked more confusion and did a lot to calm its contempt throughout the country. His suggestion on Friday that he may hit Canada with new definitions on wood products and dairy products only nourish anger.
Trump told reporters at an event at the Oval Office: “Canada has been torn for years on a tariff of wood and dairy products,” Trump told reporters during an event at the Oval Office. He accused Canada of taking advantage of American farmers and threatened to respond similarly with more customs tariffs “early today or we will wait until Monday or Tuesday.
The president said: “This is not fair.”
For Canadians, what is unfair is to be a good neighbor and only friendly to make this friend run you. Now – from the highest levels of Canadian government to the bottom – the country seeks to send a message to America.
“Our grocery stores are really promoting our Canadian products, and I think many of us buy these products because of this,” said Liz Floyd, who indicated that there is more national unity in Canada.

British Prime Minister Colombia David Ebi was more severe.
He said: “We will ensure that the Americans understand the extent of our anger, the extent of our glory, and the extent of our commitment to work as a state to defend each other.”
Chen said it is difficult to separate the Americans from Trump, at least during the next four years.
She said, “We were in our comfort area with America for years.” “Therefore, this is an opportunity for us, as you know, to be stronger together.”
The others who were interviewed in the Toronto city hall had nothing nice to say about Trump or customs tariffs. But they have not been unprecedented. They stopped directing their contempt directly to the American people-even when they warned the costs for them, will also increase due to the retaliatory moves in Canada.

On Friday, the Canadian government launched a 5 billion dollar program to help companies in the country to move in definitions and find new markets for their exports.
Province governments take strong steps on their own to encourage consumers to “buy Canadian”. The government -run alcohol stores in Ontario sell approximately one billion dollars of American products every year, but this week it was requested to stop selling American wine and alcoholic beverages.

Ford threatened to cut Canadian electricity that is sold across the border, which operates about 1.5 million homes and companies in New York, Minnesota and Michigan.
“This is the last thing I want to do, but President Trump is trying to destroy our country,” he said.
Some Canadians support this move – and more.
“We are still very nice,” said Peterson. “I think we should cut everything. There is no electricity for you, comrades, no wood for you, comrades, nothing, until each of these definitions takes away.”
Peterson said Trump’s ambitions to make Canada’s 51st American state, “is not an opportunity.” “We will not go anywhere. We are Canada.”
