How many blast furnaces do we have making steel from Iron ore? Is Trump only targeting “premium” aluminum (?) or all aluminum imports?

Who’s Trumps aluminum tariff really targeting? Who’s Trumps steel tariff really targeting? US President Donald Trump’s threat to impose 25 per cent tariffs on all aluminium and steel imports will have a limited effect on the Gulf region’s exports of these metals, although further clarity is...

About 90 per cent of the aluminum produced in Canada comes from Quebec and about 60 per cent of the aluminum used in the United States in turn comes from Quebec. Steel imports accounted for about 23% of American steel consumption in 2023, according to American Iron and Steel Institute data, with...

Define “they.”

Not that far fetched in the Union of economies & currencies & what have you according to Pete & Kevin O’Leary. United States of Canada, being a monarchy republic something something. We’d take 56 electoral votes (based upon population & not acreage), 6 senators, common currency, the Gulf of...

(For Tec, YouTube & “The Trump & Trudeau Tariff Trials & Tribulations Toonie”) Saskatchewan guy here.

It’s been more than seven years, meanwhile, since TC Energy, known as TransCanada at the time, officially terminated its Energy East pipeline. The Liberal government insisted TC Energy’s decision to cancel Energy East was a “business decision,” but in 2019, a senior vice-president at the...

No idea yet…& the same for everybody else. Again, all that was said was all steel and aluminum imports into the US at 25%, on a Sunday…so, who are the suppliers of aluminum and steel to the US? Canada was the top steel supplier to the United States, followed by Brazil, Mexico, South Korea and...

If at a game, & one feels the need to protest, do it with your silence. Don’t boo, just don’t sing. Being an adult. Be respectful at all times.

“Well, that’s reassuring. Phew!!”
