The "threat" went away Dec 17 but chimps buried the fact and kept screaming. The orangatang hates screaming chimps so he's been feeding them rotten
. This hype is all the chimps doing.
I hope you’re right. I really do. I’m working away on the assumption that you aren’t.The "threat" went away Dec 17 but chimps buried the fact and kept screaming. The orangatang hates screaming chimps so he's been feeding them rotten
He truly does hate the media and they hate him.
Problem is, his abuse of media has been used by our Feds for election chatter.
Northwest Indiana. Google earth the Middlebury Elkhart Goshen Shipshewana area and try to count the RV manufacturing plants. It’s crazy. That’s where about 99% of this industry is located manufacturing wise with a dribble in Idaho, a couple in Oregon, a bit in California and Pennsylvania, etc…
The left ventricle of the heart of tornado alley. Go figure.
So if tariffs were real, a short rush of getting as many to Emmerson and stockpiling would would be your last stand.
We are already doing that. Anything for any of our BC & Alberta dealers is piling up in a holding yard in Manitoba.
We’re still running stuff to the Saskatchewan in Manitoba dealers directly.
We have been “short rushing” like this as fast as legally possible since mid January, without pause.
We ourselves, for our 25-ish Canadian dealerships that we haul to, deal with about 60 manufacturing plants in that area above that I’m describing, and that’s not all of them by any means.
Trump says tariffs on Canada, Mexico will proceed as planned — The Globe and Mail
The U.S. had paused the threatened tariffs for 30 days after the two countries pledged new border measures
Mr. Trump had paused the threatened tariffs Feb. 3 for 30 days after Canada and Mexico pledged new measures to strengthen surveillance of their shared borders with the United States as well as more efforts to fight the illegal production and distribution of the opioid fentanyl.
Public Safety Minister David McGuinty, Immigration Minister Marc Miller and Ottawa’s new fentanyl czar are in Washington for several days of meetings as Canada tries to persuade the Trump administration to relent the March 4 tariffs. The threatened tariff on Canadian energy shipments and critical minerals would be 10 per cent, etc…
The ministers and fentanyl czar Kevin Brosseau are scheduled to meet with U.S. border czar Tom Homan Thursday, etc…
Mr. Trump also reminded Canada and Mexico that additional tariffs will be applied on countries April 2. “The April Second Reciprocal Tariff date will remain in full force and effect,” he said.
Additionally, the United States has announced 25 per cent tariffs on global imports of steel and aluminum, including from Canada.
U.S. tariffs will stack on top of each other, meaning Canadian steel and aluminum shipments to the United States could face a combined total of 50 per cent tariffs.
Has Canada put a tariff on motor homes and accessories ? Trump’s tariffs are on imports not exports .
When an election is called before April 2 the threats go away. Maybe it was a bad idea to bury the Dec 17 deal and pimp the now.gone threat?

. Until that point, unless that happens, we’re doing everything we can to try and bulletproof our dealers from as much of the potential tariffs and reciprocal tariffs and reciprocal-reciprocal tariffs as we possibly can.That is a reasonable position. I’m more familiar n with the softwood lumber tariffs than anything, and that was a push by US timber barrons with connections to get more money for their inferior lumber.
Or another 11%? Going to really suck for people trying to to rebuild in LA. Obummer and Biden put a significant crimp on US timber supply on Federal lands. Simple fact is, they do not have the timber volume to meet their own needs.
