They haven't been planning blanket tariffs on everything, at least not initially. If you've been following the news, officials specifically said they were trying to avoid tariffs on things that affect average Canadians as much as possible. The starting plan was to target red states and Tesla, last I heard. We've also got a deal with Japan for selling oil and likely Europe will want some too. Then there's turning the lights off via the Hydroelectric supply.
