Yes but the funds should be used to develop new industries and technologies. So Canada has a head start in the next technological race.
@B4YNM4D1mo1MO
No, because tariffs hurts us. Use export tax on key goods for US instead. And use *that* revenue to help our businesses
@B4VTNY72mos2MO
No. Use it to support the future economic replacement of damaged industries . Not to prop up the past.
@B4VB3F32mos2MO
Yes, and distribute it broadly to all taxpayers and use the revenue to reduce national debt and and focus funds on industries hit hardest by tariffs
@B4SQW7C2mos2MO
Yes, but focus on supporting specific businesses and services impacted rather than entire industries
@B4SCVGF2mos2MO
Yes, and no. Some funds should go to the people and businesses most affected and some should go to the national debt .
