Since this article was written, the US Senate has voted to block Trump's tariffs on Canada, specifically. The majority agreed: there is no "national emergency" caused by fentanyl coming in from Canada.

As for the other two comments that are here, by Justin Swanson and Jesse Smith, I have no idea what they are trying to say, but I can see that one of them used the space as an opportunity to push his site.

I can appreciate the perspective that the Trump admins demands have not been made clear on fentanyl. As far as not being relevant to the scale of the trade war itself, I would disagree. Yes a little decline in deaths last year… but since the year 2000, in Canada overdoses are up over 562%.

That is a very serious concern, if he was serious about it he would want to see the Liberal Party fail at all costs but endorsed them to win the federal election.
