Got anything more recent than 2020?
The last time a trade deal was negotiated between USA and Canada was 2020.
No changes have been made – everyone in the US and Canada have honoured and followed the deal until Trump reneged on it last month.
At that time, in 2020, Trump claimed he made a deal that was a historic win for the USA.
Now he says that Canada is ripping off USA – still the same deal he thought then was great , now it’s terrible ????
He says first – Jan 2025 – it’s all about Fentanyl, when only 1% of all Fentanyl snuggled into USA is from Canada , 99% from Mexico – and Canada immediately agreed to “Step Up” and stop that 1% – we spent $1.3 Billion right away and we are working on it big time.
So then he changes his tune and starts to say the deal from 2020 is awful, Canada is ripping off USA ??
So Canada says OK let’s re negotiate it then.
Trump says no – we are going to hit Canada with devastating Tariffs so their economy crashes .
Sooo What does Trump actually want ?
Trump Does not respond to asks to re negotiate the trade deal to stop the war on Canada he has started, at least so far.
If Trumps trade war continues, both economies will be devastated.
I actually agree with Trumps idea to get business to build more in the USA, Canada needs to do the same , time we both stopped buying all our poop from China, I just don’t think you need to destroy all relationships with your allies and their countries economies to do it.
