Here's one thing I don't understand: On Tuesday, March 4, tariffs were issued on Canada under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to curb the flow of illegal border crossings and drugs into our country. What do drugs and border crossings have to do with economics? Now, 8 days later, everybody is talking about tariffs because of Canada's trade surplus, because of unbalanced trade. Why were tariffs put in place? Because of drugs? Because of border crossings or because of unbalanced trade? I wish Americans could decide why they are punishing Canada.
