Halifax rage room offering framed pictures of Donald Trump, Elon Musk to smash

A rage room in Halifax is giving Canadians an outlet for their frustration over rising political tensions between Canada and the US. Customers now have the option to break framed photos of US President Donald Trump, and others.

“Fed up with the chaos? News cycle getting you down? We hear you—and we’ve got the perfect way to let it all out,” Rage Room Halifax shared in an Instagram post.

The business has launched a “smash the tariffs” event, offering each participant a free framed photo of Trump to destroy, plus a 25 percent discount on additional breakable items to “extend the destruction.”

The rage room also provides a $5 portrait pack featuring US Vice President JD Vance and Elon Musk. The business stated that all proceeds from the event will be donated to Feed Nova Scotia.

Terry LeBlanc, owner and CEO of Rage Room Halifax, told Global News that the idea came to him one night, and he felt it was something people needed.

“Normally, I don’t really get political. However, I feel with everything going on in the world and what’s happening these days … this is needed,” LeBlanc said.

Rage rooms allow customers to release stress by smashing electronics and household objects in a controlled environment. This event comes amid growing frustration over Trump’s tariff threats and comments from the president suggesting Canada will become the 51st state.

“We’re entertainment first,” LeBlanc said. “If you get a little stress relief out of it while you’re here, then it wins both ways.”

LeBlanc assured that the framed pictures would be available “for quite a while, or until the tariff war ends.”

The portraits have been donated by Quinprint, a Halifax-based printing business. The photos are printed on Canadian paper.

Scott Gillard, the owner of Quinprint, said his company is preparing for the impact of Trump’s proposed tariffs and is concerned about his customers.

“People are feeling the pinch,” Gillard said to Global News. “As far as my clients are concerned, it’s the folks who can afford the pinch the least.”
