Prime minister says US president wants to see ‘total collapse’ Canadian economy
Justin Trudeau accused Donald Trump of launching a trade war against Canada, attempting to "annex" the country to weaken its economy, and appeasing Vladimir Putin. Trudeau announced retaliatory tariffs on over $100 billion of American goods in response to Trump's tariffs. Trump suggested reciprocal tariffs in response to Canada's retaliation, while the US Commerce Secretary indicated potential tariff relief. Ontario's Premier threatened a 25% export tax on electricity to the US.
