Expect higher prices and less selection in stores in the coming
weeks due to the trade war Trump started.
""For Canadian households, this means an increase in prices of
multiple consumer goods, including groceries, appliances and
especially vehicles," Tu Nguyen, an economist at RSM Canada,
said in a statement, adding that Canadians should also expect a
smaller selection of goods as the importing of U.S. products
slows down."
Expect layoffs and increasing unemployment with restaurant,
hospitality and entertainment industries hit hard.
