B.C. Premier David Eby plans to toll U.S. trucks enroute to Alaska
Eby says the move against Alaska-bound trucks is part of a series of responses the province in planning after the "unprecedented attack" from the United States that put a 25 per cent tariff on Canadian goods.
I'm here for it. They are always welcome to go around. maybe through the frozen ice sheets of the Bering Strait?
Nice
They don't already?
The US government built the Alaska Highway. And then gave it to Canada, effectively.
The US also doesn't toll Canadian vehicles going around Northern Ontario.
We used to be friends and neighbours
100% tariff! Make them fly their shit into alaska
They send a lot by tug and barge. Some of the loads you see going up there are quite precarious looking, containers stacked 6+ high with all sorts of "loose" cargo on top, from RVs to excavators to small boats on trailers. It would be a real shame if they had to travel through international waters instead of the nice, sheltered inside passage.
