Trump says Canada wants ‘benefits’ of being US state after trade talks collapse
Americas2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported38m ago
Trade negotiations between the United States and Canada collapsed late Friday, leading the Trump administration to enact new 50-percent tariffs on a range of Canadian goods. Following the breakdown of talks, US President Donald Trump stated that Canada desires the benefits of being a US state without actually becoming one.
In the wake of the failed negotiations, the Trump administration warned on Sunday that Canada would be foolish to attempt a trade war with the United States. Officials predicted that the conflict and the newly imposed tariffs would have a devastating economic impact on the northern neighbor.
