Which is pretty true. But it’s funny because Canada has tougher tariffs on the US meaning their people pay more for things there for exactly the same reason. Canada charges a 300% tariff on dairy.
So yeah. Tariffs are bad. Let’s get rid of them entirely.

70 percent of the revenue of US dairy producers comes from government subsidies lol. As a result they overproduce at less than half the real cost, all from your tax dollars. Pretending like everyone dropping tariffs on US dairy would make dairy trade “fair” is asinine.
The US and Canada both have dairy tariffs in place. However, they functionally do not exist because they are only applied after a quota is met. For example, last year Canada charged a 0% tariff on all US dairy imports because the total volume of trade never breached the quota limit. This has basically been the case since NAFTA.
Canada, on average, actually charges lower tariffs than the US. That was true before Trump’s trade war and remains true today.
That’s not true btw the only thing 300% or more is dairy products classified as other (dehydrated butter, ghee, anything not covered by other negotiations) and it’s only applied when the amount imported is higher than the agreed upon terms of CUSMA
Canada can also meet most or all of its own dairy needs. There’s no reason a Canadian should be buying dairy from other countries aside from a few niche/luxury products, so that tariff is fine.
Charging tariffs on things a country needs to import is crazy.
I’d do an ad that says: “We don’t pay the tariffs. You do” — Canada

How much product was tariffed at that rate in 2024?

Yeah, that’s only if they make too much. You’re being a jackass on purpose and are probably paid opposition here in the United States. Can it
