I can't stand the ignorance

“I’m not even sure it’s legal! We contracted for the price on delivery,” he told the magazine. “If your price of fuel goes up or your truck breaks down, that’s not my problem! That’s what the contract’s for.”

Yes. And if your government imposes a new tax, that's on you, not the foreign supplier. But in any case, I'm sure there are provisions in the contract even if Canada had imposed an export tax, it's not going to be absorbed by the supplier.

This buffoon seems to think he's operating on "handshake deals". And he's part of the food supply. Terrifying.
