   Fuel is understandable because with the threat of a world wide drop   
   in business, and possible recession, the price of oil has dropped.   
      
   The other things will take a little longer. Imported food will   
   obviously go way up in price but American grown stuff shouldn't   
   change, other than they may lose markets outside of the USA and   
   have to charge more to stay afloat.   
      
   Power.. If we finally hit back with reciprical tariffs on the   
   electricity that Canada sells you, that will make a pretty big   
   difference to millions of people close to the border, and then   
   shortages caused if you stop buying from us will possibly raise   
   prices for everyone as the power companies have to come up with   
   ways to generate more electricity..
