Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau issued a response to US President Donald Trump’s Saturday order imposing a 25 percent tariff on imports from Canada, announcing that the country will be implementing a 25 percent tariff of its own on American goods.
Trudeau argued that the tariffs would inevitably raise the costs of goods for American consumers. He suggested that this course of action may not be the best economic option for the US, saying, “If President Trump wants to usher in a new ‘golden age’ for the United States, the better path is to partner with Canada, not to punish us.”

Trudeau also said the country is considering non-tariff measures, including “some relating to critical minerals, energy, procurement, and other partnerships.”
Trump’s executive order places a 25 percent tariff on all Canadian goods except for “energy resources,” such as oil and gas, which will face a 10 percent tariff. The order also applies a 25 percent tariff on Mexican imports and a 10 percent levy on Chinese goods. These tariffs are set to take effect on Tuesday.
In anticipation of the tariffs, Canadian officials have considered imposing retaliatory measures. However, Trump’s order warns that if Canada, Mexico, or China were to “retaliate against the United States in response to this action through import duties on United States exports to Canada or similar measures, the President may increase or expand in scope the duties imposed under this order to ensure the efficacy of this action.” […]

Independent Journalism Is Dying
Ever since President Trump’s miraculous victory, we’ve heard an incessant drumbeat about how legacy media is dying. This is true. The people have awakened to the reality that they’re being lied to by the self-proclaimed “Arbiters of Truth” for the sake of political expediency, corporate self-protection, and globalist ambitions.
But even as independent journalism rises to fill the void left by legacy media, there is still a huge challenge. Those at the top of independent media like Joe Rogan, Dan Bongino, and Tucker Carlson are thriving and rightly so. They have earned their audience and the financial rewards that come from it. They’ve taken risks and worked hard to get to where they are.
For “the rest of us,” legacy media and their proxies are making it exceptionally difficult to survive, let alone thrive. They still have a stranglehold over the “fact checkers” who have a dramatic impact on readership and viewership. YouTube, Facebook, and Google still stifle us. The freer speech platforms like Rumble and 𝕏 can only reward so many of their popular content creators. For independent journalists on the outside looking in, our only recourse is to rely on affiliates and sponsors.
But even as it seems nearly impossible to make a living, there are blessings that should not be disregarded. By highlighting strong sponsors who share our America First worldview, we have been able to make lifelong connections and even a bit of revenue to help us along. This is why we enjoy symbiotic relationships with companies like MyPillow, Jase Medical, and Promised Grounds. We help them with our recommendations and they reward us with money when our audience buys from them.
The same can be said about our preparedness sponsor, Prepper All-Naturals. Their long-term storage beef has a 25-year shelf life and is made with one ingredient: All-American Beef.
Even our faith-driven precious metals sponsor helps us tremendously while also helping Americans protect their life’s savings. We are blessed to work with them.
Independent media is the future. In many ways, that future is already here. While the phrase, “the more the merrier,” does not apply to this business because there are still some bad actors in the independent media field, there are many great ones that do not get nearly enough attention. We hope to change that one content creator at a time.
Thank you and God Bless,
JD Rucker
