On Monday, we talked about President Donald Trump’s new 50% tariffs on Canadian imports that will take effect Aug. 19. 

We asked what you thought of these new tariffs, and here’s what you said: 

💬 “Trump is incapable of admitting he’s wrong, so he’s going to plow ahead no matter how it impacts the rest of us. Tariffs are another financial burden that do nothing to help the American people. In this current economy—due to the war in Iran, the big, beautiful bill, and the wage gap compared to the general cost of living—going without is becoming a very sad part of life.” — Sue G. 

💬 “We were forced to go to Canada Rx in British Columbia for two of our prescriptions due to the high cost of those drugs in the U.S. Since Trump slapped the first tariffs on Canada, they of course passed them onto the bottom line that we pay for [these] drugs. This new tariff will add an increase of approximately 1/3 of the cost of our Rx.” — Prescott resident

💬 “The tariffs directed at Canada have had a real effect on the hospitality industry in Scottsdale. We used to see around 10 percent of our patrons as Canadian. Now, I can’t remember the last Canadian we have received in our restaurant. I would bet that every ‘Snowbird’ destination is feeling the same thing. … We had no closer ally than Canada. Tariffs are destroying that alliance. We are just beginning to suffer for that.” — Bob

💬 “[Tariffs} are stupid! It only gives Trump more money to play with. They only hurt Americans making it more expensive to live here.” — Linda N.
