It simply raises the price to Chinese, Called inflation, Populations never stop buying a product for a few cents change in price. Instead higher wages to maintain same living standard. Part of overall plan that in the end will benefit all. Simply a method of equalization. Not a big deal. Canadian Gas price in 1950's was 35 cents per imperial gallon (4.54 liters) which = 29 cents per US gallon Today Gas in Vancouver is over $5.82 per US Gallon and expected to be over $6 by summer. Gas is consumed at a greater rate in both the US and Canada now, than when it was 29 cents.

That's a great idea to reduce food miles and promote local production for food security. Japan for decades has grown rice locally where it's obviously not economic unless one thinks food security. I have advocated tax at borders rather than in local transactions because a country is its borders and citizens. Any talk of trade balances is a waste of thinking space. But government bludgers love it as it gives them a reason for being. Otherwise they'd have to get real jobs. Maurice
