Trump Halts All Trade Discussions with Canada, Announces New Tariffs

Donald Trump announced today the immediate termination of all trade discussions with Canada, citing ongoing disputes over tariffs and the newly imposed Digital Services Tax. In a statement, Trump expressed strong disapproval of Canada's trade practices, particularly the "egregious Tax" on American technology companies and the "400% Tariffs" on US dairy products. "We have just been informed that Canada, a very difficult Country to TRADE with, including the fact that they have charged our Farmers as much as 400% Tariffs, for years, on Dairy Products, has just announced that they are putting a Digital Services Tax on our American Technology Companies, which is a direct and blatant attack on our Country," Trump stated. He added, "Based on this egregious Tax, we are hereby terminating ALL discussions on Trade with Canada, effective immediately. We will let Canada know the Tariff that they will be paying to the United States of America next seven day period. Thank you attention to this matter!" This move signals a significant escalation in trade tensions between the two neighboring nations, potentially impacting economic relations and various sectors. Further details regarding the new tariffs are expected to be announced within the next seven days.
