Donald Trump says he could consider Canada-EU partnership a ‘hostile act’

United States President Donald Trump has warned the European Union that he could consider a proposed partnership between the EU and Canada as a "hostile act." Trump threatened the European body with a new round of heavy tariffs and a potential cut to trade if their economic and political dealings with Canada do not meet his approval.
The friction stems from an EU proposal to make Canada its first-ever associate member. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen raised the prospect of this association just ahead of an address to the European Parliament by Canadian leader Mark Carney.
