Trump Threatens 100 Percent Tariff on Canada Over China Trade Deal

Addressing Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney as governor, Trump said that China “will eat Canada alive” if the deal goes through.

“If Governor Carney thinks he is going to make Canada a 'Drop Off Port' for China to send goods and products into the United States, he is sorely mistaken. China will eat Canada alive, completely devour it, including the destruction of their businesses, social fabric, and general way of life," Trump wrote on Truth Social.

The Republican, who in the past has said that he wants Canada to be the 51st state of the US, said that he will impose a 100 per cent tariff on Ottawa if it makes a deal with Beijing.
