I suspect that much of it is going to be used by the Trump admin for whatever purpose they want.

In Canada, they have pledged to use the retaliatory tariff money to compensate those affected most from the Trump tariffs.

I haven''t heard what the POTUS is planning to use his own tariff cash for. It will be in the billions even trillions you gotta think
