And that's also illustrated by the fact that It's one of a half a dozen. You mentioned banks and there are U.S. banks that operate in Canada, including retail, but not in every single sector. And there is protectionism associated with that. But Trump has also mentioned the amount that Canada puts into NATO. There have been a number of different rationales for this.

I think the best way to understand what Trump wants to do with tariffs is that Trump wants to do tariffs. He modeled himself after William McKinley. He likes to call himself Tariff Man. All of these things. He truly believes that we can swap the federal income tax with the tariff system, as was indeed the case in America between 1870 and 1913. So let's do that all over again.

It can't happen because the president can do the tariffs, but cannot necessarily do the tax reform exactly the way that he wants to do it. That has to go through Congress. But he really, truly believes this. And so he's going to because precisely his second administration is a lot more lubricated. It's just going. It is getting things done in a way that the first administration is on.

You'll see the rhetoric associated with his first State of the Union much different than his first, as you rightly pointed out, Megan. But one of the things that he has wanted to do for a really long time is tariffs. And so that's why they are done. I don't think it's a negotiating tactic at this point.
