Trump Tariffs -- Canadian on eBay refuses to sell to United States.

This is a direct quote from the seller's item listing.

***ATTENTION***

I regret to inform the citizens of the United States that due to your government import policy change (Tariff of 15%)

that I will not be shipping to you.

I sincerely hope that this policy is temporary.

I trust, my friends, that you understand.

She tried to order snow boots (The Canadian ones are the best!) and was sent the identical message. She wrote back how sorry she is about our awful government.
