Summary

Canada launched an ad campaign in the U.S. denouncing Trump’s tariffs as a “tax on hardworking Americans.”

Billboards in 12 states, including key Republican areas, urge Americans to oppose the tariffs, which could cost households over $1,200 annually.

Polls show most Americans fear economic harm from the tariffs, despite Trump’s claim they are a “tax cut.”

Canada is also preparing retaliatory tariffs while rejecting Trump’s repeated calls to annex Canada as the 51st U.S. state. Officials labeled the annexation rhetoric “absurd.”

      500% tariff for Americans importing. And who will buy? They’ll just put you on the shelf (upside down actually!) and that’s it.
