Trump Warns Canada of 100% Tariffs Over China Trade Deal
“If Canada makes a deal with China, it will immediately be hit with a 100% Tariff against all Canadian goods and products coming into the U.S.A.”
President Donald Trump sharply escalated trade tensions with Canada on Saturday, warning that any move by Ottawa to deepen economic ties with China would trigger sweeping retaliatory tariffs from the United States. In a lengthy Truth Social post, Trump accused Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney of positioning Canada as a backdoor for Chinese goods into the U.S. market.
“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. If Canada makes a deal with China, it will immediately be hit with a 100% Tariff against all Canadian goods and products coming into the U.S.A. If Canada does not want to trade with the United States, they should just say so. Canada survives because of the United States, not the other way around. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
According to Reuters, Trump’s warning follows Carney’s recent outreach to Beijing, where the Canadian leader praised China as a stable economic partner and encouraged deeper trade and investment ties.
Trump said China would attempt to use Canada to evade U.S. tariffs, warning that any such arrangement would be met with immediate retaliation.
Fox News reported that Trump repeatedly framed Canada as a potential “drop off port” for Chinese goods, warning that such a move would undermine U.S. trade enforcement and broader national interests.
Trump referred to Carney as a “governor,” echoing comments he has made previously about Canada’s reliance on the United States, and warned that Canada “should be grateful” for what it receives economically from its southern neighbor.
The remarks underscore the administration’s increasingly confrontational posture toward China and signal that Canada could soon find itself caught in the crossfire if it proceeds with further trade agreements involving Beijing.

VegemiteMarmiteMoulson.djt has handled the tariffs like the boss
if not for the msm

Canada needs us.
We DO NOT need them.
And yes, many, MANY people have said this was what China was planning on doing to try to evade US tariffs.
Canada will really do ANYTHING other than just cut their tariffs on US imports, won’t they?
Yeah seems so and maybe including the secession of Alberta. If that gets on the ballot that’s a big deal and it looks as if the petition drive is gonna wildly exceed the initial estimates, which seems to indicate a sting level of support within Alberta to go Indy.
Can we trade Alberta for Minnesota? Please?
Lets go further. We get Alberta, most of Saskatchewan and all of BC minus Vancouver. We trade Coastal CA from Los Angeles North, Coastal Oregon and Coastal Washington. We keep everything east of the mountains that more/less bisect those States. Vancouver can be the capital of ‘West Canada’. We give Canada everything North and East of Pennsylvania and maybe take the Eastern maritime provinces. Give Denmark NYC in a one foe one swap for Greenland but they gotta take Puerto Rico to go with it. We throw in Chicago and Minneapolis to Canada but keep the rest of Illinois and Minnesota.
That would pretty well solve our domestic political division in the USA.
Unfortunately we cannot cede all the western ports. The people, surely
What do you mean cede ‘all the western ports’? We’re keep San Diego and Alaska. Plus ‘the port of Los Angeles’ isn’t IN Los Angeles it’s located to the south in San Pedro CA So no the commies don’t get to keep it.
What about all of OUR China deals?
I’ve read [true??] that CCP PLA has military exercises and a contingent of soldiers on bases in Canada. Can this really be true?
