Who will have the last tariff laugh now?

It might be me.

I have all ways had squirrel instincts and stocked up food for winter. Last year I stocked up for winter and then when the dock workers went on strike - I stocked up some more.

Then Trump got back in the WH and started his tariff BS so I stocked up some more. Shortly after that the buy Canadian stickers on the store shelf's started to appear. Then as consumers started buying more Canadian food products the demand for US products shrank. 

So the stores sold the last of their US products and started putting stickers on the empty shelf spaces that say – Coming Soon New Exciting Product - and you can bet those new exciting products won’t be from the US.

A very wise man once said – I’m sorry that it turned out this way but someone’s got to lose - it’s just the nature of the business - its the tariff blues.
Actually he said smugglers not tariffs and that wise man was – Glenn Fry.

Cheers!
