Update: Of course, he got played like a fiddle, so no tariffs for now, at least not on Canadian, Mexican goods.Â
Irving Oil, based in New Brunswick, is alerting its New England heating-oil customers their bills are going up 10% Tuesday, when 47's new tariffs take effect (although the 25% figure is more widely known, it's actually 10% for energy products). And the Globe reports that 80% of all of New England's gasoline and diesel fuel comes from Canada - mainly from an Irving refinery in New Brunswick - along with 90% of Logan's jet fuel.

This was my urgency to buy one so quick... I was worried how much a car would increase after bozo pulls this nonsense.

Never has there been a more important time to get an apartment where heat and hot water are included in the rent.

that would have provided us with that hydro power. The NECED project, and the Twin State Clean Energy Link Both fell through, though, so we are still reliant on <a href="https://www.iso-ne.com/isoexpress/web/charts">natural gas</a> which is expensive due to several factors. We lack a pipelines to bring gas to the area, so it must come by ship, but if memory serves, due to regulations we can only accept fuel that has been repackaged under certain flags before it can be sent back to New England for use.

Did Irving rescind the gouge now that the Maple tariffs are on hold?

It was a direct pass through to US consumers based on US tariffs.
That's not a gouge in any sense of the word.
