Umm, how much orange juice is shipped to BC. I haven't had any orange juice for years as there is too much sugar in it.

Who gives a **bleep** ?

Maybe I'll finally be able to afford to build that garage / shop with BC grown 2 X 4's & 2 X 6's...

If I still have a job, that is.

Wait and see some woke company will start and make a plant based orange juice made in canada just a matter of time.... and the orange juice folks will have to suck it up for a few months.... I am sure Florida will survive not selling OJ to western canucks... !!!

I hope for all, worrying about losing their earned paycheck jobs.
It's best to leave the negotiations in Danielle's hands, the Trudeau and the rest of the few WEF globalist cult followers left are not the people kind Trump takes serious in negotiating the shared responsibilities, accountability and funding for securing North America from foreign terrorists and threats.
Once this is done, the tariffs issue will be wrapped up pretty quick, however Ford and Ontario may not like seeing cuts in Ontario's vehicle manufacturing for export to the US.
Ford the West would have stood by you, but.......

Danielle Smith went down, kissed the Emperors ring and still came back with a empty sack.
She isn't part of the circus show.

So happy that there are a few with confidence in the Trudeau, making up the 16% of support. These are the followers who most likely profiteered over the backs of the taxpayers, supporting hers, or addicted, suffering and in denial from the fear, propaganda & brainwashing.
Danielle has represented Canada and Alberta the best, to state the Canadian case with the new administration.

I did not see Eby going south... he is busy talking the big guy thing... like watch out for BC, we will counter act with tariffs.. what a joke he must think it is April fools day...
We have the LNG plant in place but all that is going over seas as far as I can tell
The so called tourist industry is on its last foot out the door ,,,costs to much to holiday here is the truth..
The forestry industry for what we have left is going to be hit hard... as why would trump buy stuff here,,, maybe offer to low ball the logs and process in the USA remember he says employ US folks so he can do what he says
Other than those above we do have our shipping ports which are on strike most of the time and no wonder we can not make Asia deals or Europe..
Just goggle the europeons wanted our NG when russia wanted to play hard ball and good old Trudeau told them where to go and they did .... lol p;oof gone a choice of markets for our raw liquid natural gas ....
That leaves the winnnnnnnne industry and that is a gong show to say the least... trying to have all the Alberta people join wine clubs and then can not ship it... cause it costs money for pay the Alberta Liquor control board
Please chirp in on this issue and let me know what I am missing ,, not a trump guy but 400 million people to our 40 million mostly immigrants and drug dealers is not a laughing matter . They laugh at the system !!!

The socialist left and their inability to think two days ahead have put us in a tough spot. And now we have those same idiots, Trudeau and Eby, talking out of their butt.

Should the tariffs go on and the idiots have their way, life in BC will get a whole lot tougher and don't expect Eby and the NDP to cut back on spending or give us tax breaks. That's not how socialists brains work.

But Eby is thinking of taxing American trucks traveling to Alaska. That'll send a message to those Americans. [icon_lol2.gif]
