Why is Prime Minister Justin Trudeau confronting Donald Trump’s tariff threats?
And I think people south of the border are beginning to wake up to the real it reality that tariffs on everything from Canada would make life a lot more expensive. From uh for Americans.
We continue our reporting on world leaders standing up against Donald Trump, asserting their nation's sovereignty, and pushing back, saying, you threaten us, we threaten you. We'll be nice, but don't disrespect our nations. You're seeing right there, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of Canada. He did take a trip to Mar-a-Lago a few weeks back to try to explain to Donald Trump what tariff. SAR, but we see Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada, escalating right now his response to Donald Trump piece by piece. So Donald Trump gets the message. I'll show you a longer version of that video in just a moment. So you see, I think how articulate and reasonable Prime Minister Trudeau is being right here. Here's how it's being
Reported in the United States though. Donald Trump. Taunts Trudeau with new title as he continues tariffs push, the great state of Canada. Trump to Trudeau. I look forward to seeing the governor again soon. Donald Trump calling the Prime Minister of Canada a governor of the United States and saying that Canada is now the 51st state. Nothing says Donald Trump chaos. and Donald Trump offending our allies, like Trump at midnight making social media posts, attacking Canada and mocking its leaders. I mean, Canada's our one of our greatest trading partners here in the United States, as is Mexico. So Donald Trump's going to what alienate and isolate us from our top trading partners while currying favor to Viktor Orban of Hungary?
Are you kidding me? Because Victor Orban of Hungary got a warm welcome at Mar-a-Lago as Elon Musk greeted him and was conducting apparently official business for the United States, even though Elon Musk is an unaligned. elected uh bureaucrat who is now saying that he wants Americans to face economic hardship. Donald Trump posted the following on his social media platform. It was a pleasure, and this this is what he posted yesterday around midnight. It was a pleasure to have dinner the other night with Governor Justin Trudeau of the great state of Canada. I look forward to seeing the governor again soon so that we may continue our in-depth talks on tariffs and trade, the results of which will be truly spectacular for all.
DJT. Again, mocking the Prime Minister of Canada right there. Here's what Justin Trudeau said in his full remarks at the Halifax Chamber of Commerce. Commerce. Um, watch this. This is actual statesmanship right here. Um, and someone who's being careful and diplomatic with their words here. Play this clip.
First of all, let's not kid ourselves any way, shape or form. Uh twenty five percent tariffs on everything going to the United States would be devastating for the Canadian economy. It would require us uh to pull together and support each other and hang in there to prevent uh just horrific uh losses in all of our communities for everyone. Um They would also, however, mean uh real hardship for Americans as well. Um Americans import uh sixty five percent of their crude oil from Canada. Significant amounts of electricity. just about all the natural natural gas uh exported from Canada uh goes to the United States. Um they rely on us for steel and aluminum. They rely on us uh for uh a range of uh agricultural uh imports.
All of those things would get more expensive. Now, for years Americans have been paying more for their homes than they should because of unjust tariffs on softwood lumber. Um maybe this level of tariffs will actually have them realize that this is something they are doing to themselves. And President Trump got President Elect Trump got elected on a commitment to make life better and more affordable for Americans. And I think people south of the border are beginning to wake up to the real it reality that tariffs on everything from Canada would make life a lot more expensive. from uh for Americans. So that's part of the argument. The other part is we will of course, as we did uh eight years ago,
