Trump agreed to delay tariffs on Canada and Mexico after their leaders agreed to measures to stop the flow of the opioid fentanyl into the United States.
Sort of, I’d say he winced. He still got a stronger boarder which was something he was wanting (cause Canada is the problem /s) but obviously the trade deficit didn’t change.
We’ll truly know if he is blinking if he follows through on the tariffs in a month. I just hope Canada (and others) wake up and realise they can’t depend on the US anymore. They should diversify themselves as much as possible as quickly as possible
The increase in border security spending was announced back in December. The only real change announced today is that Canada will now stick the bogus title of Fentanyl Czar on someone. Oh, and the fact that Canadians now will actively avoid any American products. Great job mango Mussolini.
And… Trump blinked.

For the record, a trade deficit is not a bad thing, Trump is just obsessed with it because he’s an idiot.
Border.
And he didn’t get a “stronger border”, he got Canada to pretend to take a non-problem seriously.
Myself and a lot of other Canadians have already started avoiding American goods, even before these tarrifs were set to go into place
I can’t wait until Trudeau makes an innocent joke and Trump bans him from his communities.
