Help Canadian books and bookstores survive the trade war. Give the government feedback on the tariffs on books.

The Canadian government is planning a 25% tariff on books imported to Canada starting April 2nd.

Because of the way books are printed and warehoused, this would apply to a significant number of books by Canadian authors.

As the sale price of books is fixed and printed on the cover, this would be a crisis that will shut down Canadian bookstores and subsequently the Canadian publishers and authors that rely on them.

This plan would not affect the American publishing business in any noticeable way, and they would likely take over the market share without the expense of supporting Canadian authors and publishers.

We can say with confidence that this deadly blow to readers, writers, publishers, libraries, schools, and bookstores in Canada is unlikely to impact the decisions made by the American Republican Party in any way.

We believe that the ramifications for our small but culturally impactful industry have been overlooked, and could be saved with the stroke of a pen at no political cost.

That's why we are asking you to help us communicate the concern at hand to the Canadian government. The government is seeking feedback with this form, where books are known as “Tariff item 4901.99.00” https://tinyurl.com/4v464dy6

I also urge you to share this message with your MP, regardless of party.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I hope we can count on your support and continue serving our community for another 50 years.

You've probably heard of word orders for adjectives, with the impossible acronym OSASCOMP - opinion-size-age-shape-color-origin-material-purpose Noun, as in "a lovely little old rectangular green French silver whittling knife."What's interesting is that this seems to be the case in many languages, and not just Indo-European ones. Apparently it has something to do with how close the adjectives are to the noun. An adjective denoting an opinion is not as close to the noun as its purpose.

Why it’s a “huge fuzzy blanket” and not a “fuzzy huge blanket.”
