Tariffs are eliminating markets. March 20, 2025 10:29 am RobVG

It’s not just prices going up, some US businesses are losing markets.
Canada has pulled US liquor off their shelves. One distiller in California will see their market shrink by $200 million. Same with companies back East.
It’s not going to amount to much nationwide, but Canada is also looking at cancelling their F-35 order.
Canadians can hold a grudge. These markets won’t be coming back anytime soon, if ever.

And from the rumor mill; Some Canadians coming into the US are having their cell phones searched for anti-trump sentiment. I have my doubts it’s true, but the fact that it could be is frightening.
