Airships? Airships?!? Fuck yeah!!! Seriously though, the idea of an international rules-based and climate-aware free trade alliance is brilliant. I hope it happens. And I hope I'm alive to see the airships!
"Where countries looking to lessen the impact of Trump’s tariffs will negotiate themselves out of the trade war, likely at the expense of other free-trading nations."
Or negotiate themselves into perhaps unintended but equally harmful ones. China's response to Canada matching America's 100% import tariffs on EVs was to slap 100% import tariffs on many canola products. If these stay in place they will wreak havoc on Saskatchewan farmers and goes to show the follie of trying to placate the Trump administration. If you love irony you'll love Premier Moe's attempt at getting Carney's ear on this given the Saskatchewan sovereignty play-acting he likes to get up to but that's another story...
Great bit of history, here's hoping it doesn't repeat itself. And another great article. Love the vintage posters they're beautiful.
From anywhere, and to anywhere, except the USA, until their President respects treaties again....

I've definitely heard people talking about buying Canadian, then not American if Canadian isn't available. Like Mexican avocados, etc
The US tariff on imports from China is 20%, I do believe. Trump's 10% was additional to Biden's 10%.
A long read to look forward to by Justin Ling.
