    I’m still pissed that Canada dropped theirs. It’s not discriminatory, it’s for all online services. Trump just wants to make his tech billionaire friends happy.

        The online services tax. Right now foreign companies can exploit the Canadian internet users and not pay a penny in taxes for it.

        They dropped it because Trump was using it as an excuse to block trade negotiations. They dropped it and the negotiations still went no where. Canada is still paying higher tariffs than Russia. Let that sink in. Canada needs to speed up their decoupling if their economy from the US and bring back that tax.
