An observation here as someone whose life kinda straddles both sides of the 🇨🇦 🇺🇸 border.
In the U.S. the tariffs are like one of 5 major political stories this weekend.
In Canada they are everything. Wall to wall coverage. The clicks on our tariff copy are setting records - never seen a reaction like this to a single-day news event.
