    Crete ideas?

    Individual purchases from sellers in Canada... anyone know what the tariff situation is now?

    Tjhat would raise the prices both ways to and from the lower 48 even more than the 25% tariff toll. There is not easy way out of this other than rescinding all the tariff.s

    Individual purchases from sellers in Canada... anyone know what the tariff situation is now?

    Today I heard that the toll for all trucks is 25% of the value each way. That is raising the costs of all goods in Alaska. The Alaska governor concerned about the rising costs and supply line problems.

    I heard that since the lower 48 is not directly connected to Alaska, that Canada has turned the major highway into a $35CA or $40CA tollway for vehicle transporting goods to or from Alaska. Does anyone have more information on that?
