Keep the liquor bans, keep the tariffs on US products until the 30 days are up. A month of pain to make the point that Canada is not just an economic appendage.
We can do it the olde fashioned way, by not buying American booze. That is my plan.
Totally, most of the beer I drink comes from the GTA and I can make sure all the produce I get comes from Canadian green houses or Mexico.
I have 5 excellent local breweries to choose from here in the Comox Valley, and an embarrassingly rich array of BC beer to choose from. I have a few California wines that truly like but wont be buying them any more. I have a lot of friends and family in that state who are appalled by the behavior of their president, but I will avoid sending my money to the US where I have alternatives.
While tempting, such a move would guarantee the trade war actually begins. Ideally, Canada isn't slammed with tariffs in the first place.
He is wiling to play "I'm gonna fuck you so hard-- just kidding" and Canadian's don't have the finances to deal with that every 30 days. A line in the sand that says "we are willing to continue to be your partner but will not tolerate ANY fuckery" is worth a some economic pain as long as it is predictable.
