Summary

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau denounced Trump’s sudden 25% tariffs, warning they threaten American jobs and will inflate consumer costs.

He revealed that Trump refuses to take his calls and sharply criticized claims linking tariffs to illegal immigration and fentanyl crossing U.S. borders.

In retaliation, Canada and Mexico imposed matching tariffs, targeting crucial American exports like auto parts, agriculture, and red-state staples like famous Kentucky bourbon.

Trudeau warned American factories may shut, citing integrated supply chains.

    He’s acting like his allies are enemies and not countries you want to cooperate with for the common good.

      First you have to have an understanding of “the common good”, which I’m quite certain he is lacking. There is only “the good for me”.

      The US’s allies ARE his enemies, because his allies are our enemies.

      Our allies are sensible and question his stupidity. Our enemies are also sensible and so they applaud his stupidity, because they’re our enemies.

      When everything in the world is zero sum, there is no cooperation.

      Such a sad way to view the world.
