Canada and Mexico Want US Billions, but Also a Fight - Victor Davis Hanson

Hello, this is Victor Davis Hanson for The Daily Signal. I’d like to talk about our two North American partners, Canada and Mexico. - Victor Davis Hanson@VDHanson

Recently, Canada decided that they were going to enforce the digital services tax...

And what it was is a 3% tax on our tech companies—Amazon, Apple, Meta, Google—by anybody in Canada who uses their service.

• You buy something online, you buy an ad, you pay a fee to any of these and you’re Canadian, then you’re going to pay 3%...
• And they don’t even have to be in Canada. 
• They can be in the United States. So, they’re going to charge them 3%.

And this is the killer. 

• They’re going to enforce the law all the way back to 2022...going to be gouged for $2 or $3 billion...
