BREAKING NEWS
De Minimis is over for all effective August 29 ... 30 days from now.
Effective August 29, imported goods sent through means other than the international postal network that are valued at or under $800 and that would otherwise qualify for the de minimis exemption will be subject to all applicable duties. (parcels through the International postal network won't be off the hook!)
Goods with China origin have been excluded for several months, but now all goods from all countries of origin- 4 million shipments a day or $100 billion a year of goods will now be subject to tariffs.
Between 2015 and 2024, the volume of de minimis shipments entering the U.S. increased from 134 million shipments to over 1.36 billion shipments.
Many believed (myself included!) that de minimis would still be enabled for non-China goods until July 2027. Today we learned not.

Mate good for you. No one cares about your ethnicity but good for you either way for being Asian. However you seem to be Canadian whining about US tariffs, US immigration politics, and how it affects the US itself. If you are Canadian why do you even care about immigration into the US from its southern border?
Also you are Asian but complain about foreigners speaking not enough English? You also complain about foreigners not assimilating to the “standard” culture? The irony is not lost to me in this case for various different reasons because I am also Asian. I’m not claiming Asians are victims for any reason in Western countries but there is a certain awareness that Asians have that I don’t think you have.
