It is a miniscule amount. The fentanyl that came in through Canada is less than 1% of the fentanyl in the US. This is just a pretext to be able to use the law that allows Presidents to set their own tariffs (instead of Congress) in cases of national emergency. And Trump is claiming the fentanyl from Canada is a national emergency. Total bullshit and misuse of the law.
