Canada didn't effectively do more than posture because the tariffs were canceled. He claimed intent to cancel a starlink contract and supported tariffs on energy. I'd give him (and gave him at the time) fair credit for his response. I fucking hate him - but his response was supportive of a unified Canadian response which contrasted with our permanent least favorite premiere fucking Smith who tried to weasel out of tariffs in the hope that Trump might roll back oil tariffs specifically.

Since push didn't come to shove we can't be certain if it was all posturing but I think it was genuine and I'd even say that the posturing he did was likely helpful in showing Trump that we weren't going to be pushovers.
