All of the screaming about tariffs is fun, but did you sit down at your keyboard and look and see what protectionist tariffs are changed against US goods and products going to many of those countries?
Fair Trade My Donkey!!
Even Canada had a 270% on US dairy products.
This is just trying to roll the playing field flat.

I think you must have drank the Kool-Aid.
Under NAFTA the US has a VERY favourable trade quota with Canada.
Americans sell almost $800 million in dairy products to Canada annually. Canada sells about $150 million in dairy products to the U.S., a trade surplus for the U.S. of nearly $650 million a year.
The 200% to 300% tariff is applied to any imports OVER the quota imbalance of about 4.33 to 1 in favour of the US.
