Yet another American media outlet pointing the finger at tariffs, and not threats of annexation as the driver behind changes to consumer behaviour. Wild. They really, really don't seem to think that's a factor at all.
They so consistently downplay everything Trump says or does. It's kind of shocking. And it makes it impossible for them to contemplate real solutions, assuming they even see this as a problem.
They're going to be shocked when Canadians don't return to buying US goods after Trump dies, and they're going to be doubly shocked if and when Donny take further hostile action against allies.

This drives me nuts too. It’s not “buying fewer products,” it’s a BOYCOTT. It’s not because of Trump’s tariffs, it’s because he wants to ANNEX OUR COUNTRY. The sane-washing is frankly insane.

When it was just about tariffs I cut back on purchases from American-made goods and from American companies.
But once the seriousness of the sovereignty threat became more apparent I moved that to full scorched earth on my shopping lists. A company like Costco that treats its employees decently well? Nope, even they get the boot. Not just groceries — American media products, household goods, service companies, tech products — as much as I possibly can.
In the end it’s surprising how little they are actually needed.

A lot of them don't realize how far they have crossed the line. It's honestly shocking how casual some people in the US talk about it. They treat it like a football season where you start fresh next year.
This is a western country threatening to invade and occupy an ally. Canada won't forget this.

Regime propaganda's job is to make the regime look good when it is doing bad things...
They have zero incentive to provide proper analysis, in fact they would lose their job for being a shiti regime whore
