Our government has finally struck back against the american regime for their stupid tariffs, except not until Sept 8. Gym bros in Canada will be hit particularly hard with 50% duty on whey protein and gym equipment. It is all so stupid.

In this episode I talk about what I'll do as a designer now that my export market to the USA has shut for our precious metals jewelry products. A product design came to me that incorporates my anger at the USA so I am making a prototype now. It incorporates Canadian aluminum, Canadian design, and Canadian anger into beautiful organic-shaped hefty key fob aimed at Canadian, US, and Asian customers.

Also, how the small animals on the property are reminding me to prepare now for winter.
