Donald Trump’s tariff threats have sent most Canadians into a panic. But for the country’s corporate class, the crisis has spelled opportunity.
They’re pushing their long-standing wishlist of corporate tax cuts, deregulation, and austerity—and even expressing appreciation for the U.S. president’s bullying.
The head of the country’s most powerful lobby group, the Business Council of Canada, sounded positively grateful while attending Trump’s inauguration.
“I think we owe the president a thank you,” CEO Goldy Hyder told journalists in Washington, D.C. “He’s woken us up.”
Yeah, if you actually know where it’s from exactly it’s different. Reselling stuff at farmers markets is a very well-known hustle, though.
Thing is, at my local farmer’s markets, the prices are lower than the grocery stores, so that scam wouldn’t work.
Oh yeah, that’s legit then. Lots of people get BC fruit for canning that way in the summer.
I’m not trying to shit on it as a concept, but I hear people pushing farmers markets as a cure-all sometimes, sometimes literally a health cure-all, and it’s just not.
