    Not doing the full 25% on energy shows that the US can’t afford to do so. All Canada needs to do is make energy more expensive for the US. Top it up till 25%.

      Yes, please do it. Since everyone of these conservatives bitched so much about fuel prices the entire time, it would be so freaking poetic. It’s not like the US can just ramp up gasoline production because refineries cost billions and take years to get going.
