Replies to a challenge that he's just looking out for his bottom line with this:

Shopify is unaffected by all this.

The Canadian small businesses that run on Shopify are the ones that are not so lucky. They are the bedrock of our economy providing 70% of all jobs. We all ought to fight for them.

I'm dumbfounded. He must think Canadians are so stupid they can't see the contradiction in this statement.

Canadian small businesses that are not simply resellers of US products, actually gain from tariffs on US competition. The US tariffs on Canada hurt them, but the retaliation directly helps them.
