One of the world’s most durable and amicable alliances is broken. Canadians are absorbing U.S. President Donald Trump’s trade war and his threats to make Canada the 51st state.

Summary

Canadians feel betrayed after Trump launched a trade war, threatening 25% tariffs and even suggesting Canada become the 51st U.S. state.

Prime Minister Trudeau secured a 30-day tariff delay after pledging border cooperation, but tensions remain high.

Canadian officials announced retaliatory tariffs, while citizens boycott U.S. goods and boo the American anthem at sports events.

Experts warn the damage to U.S.-Canada relations could be long-lasting.
