i'm here with canadian member of parliament charlie angus charlie last week donald trump back down he was trying to bully canada he imposed the tariffs the american markets started to crash then donald trump withdrew the tariffs canada didn't budge canada still has retaliatory tariffs on right now charlie what's your message to donald trump and his regime who may be watching this now
Well, Donald, it's become really clear after 60 some days of your chaos, you ripped up your European treaties, you sold out the people of Ukraine, you've acted in a disgraceful manner towards our allies, you're running a chainsaw through American democracy, but you made it clear that Canada is your number one enemy, your next door neighbors. So here's the thing.
You're threatening us with tariffs. You're going to bring him in. You're going to bring us to our knees. And then you start panicking because we don't back down. And now you're trying to hem and haw and change what you said just a couple of days ago. We don't care. It doesn't matter.
Until you bring all the tariffs off, until you stop harassing us and threatening our border, the punishment is going to keep coming from Canada because we realize right now that Canada has become the number one line of resistance to you and your regime. So since you've... backtracked, we've upped the ante.
Whether it's going to be energy exports, whether it's critical minerals, Canada will not back down at this point. So just you need to do a rethink because this is not going to work well for you.
Charlie, you talked about in previous interviews how the Canadian people were prepared if Donald Trump imposed tariffs, that they understood it could be tough, but they were ready for it. And you said, what I'm warning the Americans, though, is that you aren't prepared. You aren't being told the truth about tariffs and the markets are going to crash.
Do you feel that what you said back then when you and I started talking a few months ago now seems to be pretty prescient, doesn't it?
Well, we talked on a previous show about what will happen in auto when within four days, Toledo and Lansing, Bowling Green will start going down. And the day after the tariffs were announced, he immediately backed down on auto. Why wasn't he taking advice from the big automakers in the first place of the chaos that he would cause?
Now in agriculture, it's going to be another big area with $73 billion shared trade. This is a totally integrated market. And Donald promised lower grocery prices in his first hundred days. Americans like Canadians have already seen the shocks of inflation, the shocks of post COVID.
