I agree it's a time to buy.  But I hold my stocks for a very long time...decades.

I also agree fairness is fairness.  The questions I have are this.  What was Canada's tariff on steel and aluminum before Trump imposed a 25% tariff?  What was Canada's tariff on autos and auto parts?  What was Canada's tariff on oil, natural gas or potash?  Trump complains about a high tariff on US dairy but he fails to mention that US dairy is heavily subsidized and has a tariff on imports of 71 cents per liter.  He also fails to mention that the US has a tariff free quota into the Canadian market that they have never ever filled.

Fairness is fairness.

  Great buying opportunity approaching.

Pre-markets today are indicating a strong dislike of Trump's tariffs.  We will all get a little poorer soon.

  Equality for everyone.

Someone on another forum said: "There's nothing wrong with wanting to be successful but it would be nice if you didn't kick your friend in the teeth to do it".

So today is the day Trump announces his tariffs on the rest of the world.  So far the effect has added zero to his treasury but cost a heck of a lot of good will.  Personally I no longer buy US made products.  Last week I bought a new gas insert fireplace MADE IN CANADA!!  In honour of Trump's tariff day I found this song on the internet.

Herb Alpert was one of my favourite entertainers in the 60's.

This song was first performed live in the late 60's.  It's a story of a guy who wants to take a train but keeps screwing things up by going too early, forgetting his ticket etc.  It's a bit of a comedy of errors.
