    Trump wants Canada's digital services tax gone before trade talks resume | CBC News

    U.S. President Donald Trump says he's ending all trade discussions with Canada to hit back at Ottawa for slapping a tax on web giants — and he wants it removed before negotiations can begin again.

    That’s what they call a power move, Becky. “This conversation ends now” shows who’s really in control, Becky. OMG, look at her butt.

        Great. The US can fuck right off and when it’s done fucking off, it can fuck off some more. Until the end of time.

            I guess Carney was getting too much attention as “the Trump whisperer” for his ego to handle, so he wants to punish Canada and put Carney back in his place as he sees it.

            I kind of suspected we would see something like this after seeing so much in media about Carney’s success in managing the Trump relationship.

                    We can’t do “business” with an unstable idiot.

                    It’s best we ignore him, and keep working with countries who aren’t lead by a total shit stain.

                    As an individual, I’m happy continuing to rapidly cull any American ties I have with brands and services.

                      I’ve been petitioning the councillors of my rural municipality to do this. I’ve sent them articles of much larger governments doing the same worldwide ceaselessly. I’ve emailed, called and texted (small towns are beneficial sometimes) every councillor personally. I have given them the number of several local computer techs who specialize in Linux systems and Foss software.

                      I encourage you all to do the same. Municipal governments are a great place to start pushing this trend and saving them money and adding security in the process.

                          U.S. President Donald Trump says he’s pulling back from the bilateral trade discussions because Canada plans to move ahead with its digital services tax.

                          U.S. President Donald Trump says he’s ending all trade discussions with Canada while signalling he may impose a blanket tariff to hit back at Ottawa for imposing a tax on web giants.

                          Gotta earn his bribes. As opposed to doing anything useful or competent.

                                [Canada] has just announced that they are putting a Digital Services Tax on our American Technology Companies, which is a direct and blatant attack on our Country," Trump said.

                                Taxing Meta, Apple, and Amazon for business they do in Canada is an attack on the United States?

                                  Try telling Carney, or your MP, that. My MP is a back bencher do nothing, Brad Rediccop, who has said that he has no plan on doing anything (in more professional words).

                                    Great news. But my Trump-BS-translator is going haywire: since this is a lie like everything Trump says, next week Carney is going to have some sort of deal with Trump.

                                    Please don’t say that, I am scared Carney with bend over for him if it goes that fast! Luckily e do have a few agencies pushing for this.

                                      Not sure what applies o amazon. They do have advertising/sponsored listings, but don’t know if tax applies on overall business.

                                        Trump wants Canada's digital services tax gone before trade talks resume | CBC News

                                        U.S. President Donald Trump says he's ending all trade discussions with Canada to hit back at Ottawa for slapping a tax on web giants — and he wants it removed before negotiations can begin again.

                                        Why is it only 3%, what is it about being digital that avoids standard tax rates?

                                          [Canada] has just announced that they are putting a Digital Services Tax on our American Technology Companies, which is a direct and blatant attack on our Country," Trump said.

                                          Taxing Meta, Apple, and Amazon for business they do in Canada is an attack on the United States?

                                          We didn’t “just announce” it materialized three years ago and makes total sense to have in place from Canada’s POV. Dumbass Trump is wrong and lying or both - yet again.
