IT'S NOT ABOUT THE FUCKING TARIFFS!!!

For fuck's sake, Canada is boycotting US goods because of that 51st state bullshit. Threatening our sovereignty makes banning American liquor decidedly NOT a "disproportionate response". Where do these fucking reporters come up with this shit?

I like that this segment of quote was taken. In the original he also said afterwards that Canada accounts for 1% of their global sales so it really makes little difference to them.
