'Would get wiped out without US trade': Trump launches scathing attack on Canada amid trade tariff
President Donald Trump claimed that Canada would face severe economic consequences without trade with the United States, saying 95% of its business with the US could disappear if Washington stopped trading with its northern neighbour. Trump also said cutting trade with Canada could save the US between $60 billion and $90 billion annually, arguing that Canada would be “in a heap of trouble” without access to the American market.

On September 4, Trump again attacked US-Canada trade relations, claiming that the US could save approximately $90 billion annually if it completely stopped trading with Canada. He also criticized US interest rates as being too high, advocating for a significant rate cut to 1% or even 0.5%. Analysts believe these remarks are more likely a pressure tactic in trade negotiations.
