Canadian liberal MP Charlie Angus dramatically declared President Donald Trump&#8217;s suggestion that Canada would be better off joining the United States as &#8220;an act of war&#8221; despite the northern neighbor&#8217;s military being less than 5% the size of America&#8217;s armed forces.
&#8220;When you say that someone doesn&#8217;t have a right to have a country, that&#8217;s an act of war,&#8221; Angus stated during an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lG3dZYfipOs">interview</a> with the left-wing MeidasTouch Network, where he also lamented the Trump administration attempting to &#8220;rip up&#8221; trade agreements and &#8220;break a country.&#8221;
Secretary of State Marco Rubio offered a more measured response when questioned about the tensions, <a href="https://www.state.gov/secretary-of-state-marco-rubio-remarks-to-the-press-at-fairmont-le-manoir-richelieu-charlevoix-canada/">stating</a>, &#8220;The President has made his argument as to why he thinks Canada would be better off joining the United States for economic purposes. There&#8217;s a disagreement between the President&#8217;s position and the position of the Canadian government. I don&#8217;t think that&#8217;s a mystery &#8230;&#8221;

Angus has been conducting what he calls an &#8220;elbows up resistance tour&#8221; across Canada&#8217;s industrial belt, claiming Canadian citizens are responding with significant boycotts against American businesses and travel.
The MP believes that his campaign is succeeding, claiming in the interview that “the United States has become a much weaker force on the stage of the world.”
Angus&#8217;s characterization of Trump&#8217;s comments as &#8220;an act of war&#8221; appears particularly hyperbolic when considering Canada&#8217;s military consisting of approximately <a href="https://www.canada.ca/en/department-national-defence/corporate/reports-publications/proactive-disclosure/nddn-supplementary-estimates-b-2023-2024/background-notes/personnel.html">70,000</a> active personnel compared to the United States&#8217; <a href="https://usafacts.org/answers/how-many-troops-are-in-the-us-military/country/united-states/">1.3 million</a>.

The Liberal Party chose banker and climate activist Mark Carney to replace Justin Trudeau as Canada’s next prime minister during the party’s elections on Sunday night. 
Carney, who has led the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England, easily secured the win, taking 86% of the vote during the Liberal Party election. During his victory speech, Carney took shots at President Donald Trump and claimed that America wanted to destroy Canada’s way of life. 
“America is not Canada. And Canada never, ever, will be part of America in any way, shape or form,” Carney <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2025/03/09/canadas-liberals-pick-mark-carney-to-replace-justin-trudeau-00220148">said</a>. “We didn’t ask for this fight, but Canadians are always ready when someone else drops the gloves.”
Since becoming president, Trump has suggested that Canada could become America&#8217;s 51st state and levied a series of tariffs against the country. 
&#8220;Canada will not bow down to a bully. We won’t stand by as illegal U.S. tariffs hurt our workers and their families. As Canadians, we need to face this challenge as one united team,&#8221; Carney <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/world/mark-carney-wins-liberal-party-nomination-replace-trudeau-canadas-next-pm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>. He added that the Americans would “destroy our way of life” if they succeeded in getting “our water, our land, our country.” 
Carney is expected to call for nationwide elections sometime in the next few weeks, which could shake up the political makeup of Parliament. Alongside Trudeau, the Liberal Party’s popularity has fallen in recent months, and the Conservative Party could be poised to take control, with polls showing the party with a <a href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/polling-federal-rapid-shift-1.7469312" target="_blank" rel="noopener">slight advantage</a>. 
During his speech on Sunday, Carney slammed rival Canadian politician Pierre Poilievre, who heads the Conservative Party. The banker said that Poilievre was too closely aligned with Trump’s agenda.
“Donald Trump thinks he can weaken us with his plan to divide and conquer. Pierre Poilievre’s plan will leave us divided and ready to be conquered,” he said. “Because a person who worships at the altar of Donald Trump will kneel before him, not stand up to him.”
Poilievre, who has rejected calls from Trump to make Canada the 51st state, said that Carney would be a continuation of the unpopular Trudeau.
“Liberals are trying to trick Canadians into electing them for a fourth term by replacing Trudeau with his economic advisor, Mark Carney,” Poilievre <a href="https://x.com/PierrePoilievre/status/1898886332211986502" target="_blank" rel="noopener">posted</a> on X on Sunday. “It is the same Liberal team that drove up taxes, housing costs, and food prices, while Carney personally profited from moving billions of dollars and thousands of jobs out of Canada to the United States. We need a new Conservative government that will put Canada First—for a change.”
Carney has a history of pushing climate activism, previously working as the U.N. special envoy for climate action and finance, and <a href="https://www.gfanzero.com/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">launching</a> the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero in April 2021 to push decarbonization and push &#8220;leaders from the financial services sector to support the transition to a net-zero economy.&#8221;

President Donald Trump on Tuesday threatened that Canada would face an even higher tariff after the country responded with a retaliatory tariff on U.S. goods.
Trump&#8217;s 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico &#8211; and increased tariff on China &#8211; went into effect Tuesday morning, and both countries vowed to respond with reciprocal tariffs on U.S. imports. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Tuesday that Trump&#8217;s decision to impose tariffs on its neighbors &#8220;is a very dumb thing to do.&#8221;
In a Truth Social post, Trump responded and warned Canada not to respond with its own tariff.
&#8220;Please explain to Governor Trudeau, of Canada, that when he puts on a Retaliatory Tariff on the U.S., our Reciprocal Tariff will immediately increase by a like amount!&#8221; Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114105388432604284" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a> on social media.
Canada immediately imposed a 25% tariff on $30 billion worth of American goods, according to Trudeau. Another $125 billion worth of U.S. products will be hit with a 25% tariff at the end of the month, Axios <a href="https://www.axios.com/2025/03/04/trudeau-trump-tariffs-canada-us" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>. The Canadian prime minister also addressed the American people on Tuesday, saying, &#8220;Your government has chosen to put American jobs at risk at the thousands of workplaces that succeed because of materials from Canada, or because of consumers in Canada, or both.&#8221;
&#8220;They have chosen to raise costs for American consumers on everyday essential items like groceries and gas, on major purchases like cars and homes and everything in between,&#8221; Trudeau added, arguing that the tariffs would cut off America&#8217;s access to energy and critical minerals.
In a <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/03/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-proceeds-with-tariffs-on-imports-from-canada-and-mexico/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> on Monday, the White House said that &#8220;while President Trump gave both Canada and Mexico ample opportunity to curb the dangerous cartel activity and influx of lethal drugs flowing into our country, they have failed to adequately address the situation.&#8221;
&#8220;Both nations’ failure to arrest traffickers, seize drugs, or coordinate with U.S. law enforcement constitutes an unusual and extraordinary threat to America’s security—demanding IEEPA (International Emergency Economic Powers Act) action to force accountability and protect American lives.&#8221;
Trudeau dismissed Trump&#8217;s argument that the tariffs were to protect American security, claiming that Trump wants to &#8220;see a total collapse of the Canadian economy because that will make it easier to annex us.&#8221;
&#8220;First of all, that&#8217;s never going to happen. We will never be the fifty-first state,&#8221; Trudeau added.

Trade War Intensifies: Trump Vows To Increase Tariff After Canada Reciprocates

Mexico

One of the easiest ways to tell you&#8217;re dealing with an honest person is seeing how they react when some of their most basic, fundamental assumptions are proven to be completely wrong. A few weeks ago, for example, we talked about how some Flat-Earthers responded when they went on a trip to Antarctica that debunked their entire belief system. They sat there and watched 24 hours of sunlight, and they realized that the Earth has to be rotating in space. And to their credit, a few of these Flat-Earthers admitted their mistake, on-camera. They said that, from that moment forward, they would be whatever the opposite of a Flat-Earther is. Sphere-earthers, I guess.
On the other hand, malevolent liars will never admit that they&#8217;re wrong. Even when they&#8217;re confronted with the reality of the situation — which is that everything they&#8217;ve been saying for years was actually wrong — they&#8217;ll find some way to deny it. They&#8217;ll absolve themselves of any responsibility for their deception. And if they can, they&#8217;ll blame you for challenging them. These are people who are not interested in the truth. They have no integrity whatsoever. And therefore they have no business being in any position of power or authority. Trustworthy leaders will admit their mistakes. Corrupt and incompetent leaders will obfuscate, deny, and double down.
With that distinction in mind, recent events have made it abundantly clear that our neighbors to the north in Canada are ruled by the latter group of people. These are people who have no interest in the truth. They are driven entirely by an ideology that, it just so happens, is explicitly anti-Christian and anti-American. And as I&#8217;ll explain in a moment, that has significant implications for the United States, as Canada becomes increasingly hostile towards our country.
But before I get into those implications, I need to explain what exactly the Canadian government has just done. As you may remember, for several years, Canada&#8217;s government, along with the country&#8217;s state media, has been advancing an extraordinary claim as if it&#8217;s the truth. They&#8217;ve said, again and again, that unmarked mass graves had been found at Canada&#8217;s &#8220;residential schools&#8221; — which were boarding schools for Indian children that existed for around 100 years, peaking in the early 20th century. And the discovery of these unmarked mass graves was significant, Canadians were told, because Christian churches were running these residential schools.
In other words, for years, the dominant narrative in Canada has been that Christian schools were so horrific that Indian children died all the time, and they were just tossed in unmarked graves when they expired. Therefore, Canadians were told that Canada is a genocidal state, and Christianity is bad. So predictably, dozens of Christian churches burned. And in response, the country&#8217;s outgoing prime minister, Justin Trudeau, said the arson was &#8220;understandable.&#8221; They only made one arrest in the wake of those arson attacks on churches, by the way — some of which were within a few miles of the U.S. border. Canadians, for the most part, stopped celebrating their independence day, out of shame over this story. Canadian secondary schools put images like this one up on the wall:
<div class="image"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-large wp-image-884523 aligncenter" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/02/GipULN0XwAAM5jF-432x576.jpeg" alt="" width="432" height="576" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/02/GipULN0XwAAM5jF-432x576.jpeg 432w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/02/GipULN0XwAAM5jF-225x300.jpeg 225w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/02/GipULN0XwAAM5jF-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/02/GipULN0XwAAM5jF-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/02/GipULN0XwAAM5jF.jpeg 1512w" sizes="(max-width: 432px) 100vw, 432px" /></div>
As you can see, it tells students that nearly 2,000 &#8220;unmarked graves&#8221; have been found. This has been an all-out, all-encompassing narrative in Canada. But to be clear, this narrative about the residential schools was not simply pushed by Canadian state media. In fact, the narrative actually had its origins in U.S.media — including in outlets that, we now know, were taking money from the Biden administration.
The New York Times, for instance, was one of the <a href="https://quillette.com/blog/2024/09/20/when-will-the-new-york-times-correct-its-flawed-reporting-on-canadas-unmarked-graves/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">first outlets</a> to report back in 2021 that <a href="https://nationalpost.com/opinion/the-year-of-the-graves-how-the-worlds-media-got-it-wrong-on-residential-school-graves" target="_blank" rel="noopener">&#8220;unmarked graves&#8221;</a> had been discovered in Canada. They did a whole series of reports on the topic over the summer, all of which were premised on the idea that &#8220;ground-penetrating radar&#8221; had discovered evidence of grave sites. 
Then &#8220;60 Minutes&#8221; joined in, with reports like this one. Watch:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="002 60 Minutes Graves" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/YKHM1uLs_zc?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
So Anderson Cooper is very concerned about the hundreds of unmarked graves that have supposedly been discovered. He specifically mentioned the hundreds of graves that were allegedly discovered at a residential school in Kamloops, British Columbia. And Canada&#8217;s state media said much the same thing. The CBC for example <a href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/tk-eml" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>: &#8220;Preliminary findings from a survey of the grounds at the former Kamloops Indian Residential School have uncovered the remains of 215 children buried at the site, the Tk&#8217;emlúps te Secwépemc First Nation said Thursday.&#8221;
When you see television segments and news articles like this, you might assume — naturally — that some amount of vetting has been done to ensure that these claims are at least potentially accurate. These are obviously incendiary claims that are being made, so presumably, you might think that someone would have looked into them before publishing. But that was never true in this case. More than three years later, not a single body has been found in an unmarked grave at any residential school in Canada. And they certainly haven&#8217;t been uncovered in Kamloops. It turns out that, in fact, the alleged &#8220;unmarked grave site&#8221; in Kamloops was, in reality, a 2,000-foot long, 3-foot deep trench that was established in 1924 as a septic field to store sewage from the school. As the Dorchester Review <a href="https://www.dorchesterreview.ca/blogs/news/the-kamloops-discovery-a-fact-check-two-years-later?srsltid=AfmBOopXCdjxqY3JXETULV7I9BJZfAioMCrMF0Bv2anSJXCnX9tSnsUe" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>, &#8220;Ground penetrating radar cannot distinguish between a trench lined with clay tiles and a putative child’s grave.&#8221;
This is the kind of information that, if you&#8217;re dealing with honest people, would lead to mass resignations and terminations, for starters. Obviously, no one with any self-respect in the Canadian media or in the Canadian government should keep their job after spreading an anti-Christian lie that caused dozens of churches to go up in flames. But instead of admitting they were wrong, Canada&#8217;s government is of course taking the dishonorable approach. They&#8217;re slowly slinking away like the cowards they are.

<blockquote>Canada is pulling funds from groups still searching for alleged bodies buried at Indigenous residential schools funded by Catholics and other Christians. An organization and a committee of experts formed to search for the elusive remains have both lost funding in the past month, following four years of searches that have found zero remains.</blockquote>
We&#8217;re talking about organizations that have received millions of dollars from Canada&#8217;s massive, 300 million-dollar &#8220;Residential Schools Missing Children Community Support Fund.&#8221; These nonprofits have fancy names like &#8220;Survivors&#8217; Secretariat&#8221; and the &#8220;National Advisory Committee on Residential Schools Missing Children and Unmarked Burials.&#8221; And now, after collecting millions of dollars in taxpayer money, they&#8217;re finally getting cut off, because it turns out that the entire animating idea behind their &#8220;nonprofit&#8221; was in fact a scam. The Canadian government is now rolling back its financial investments in this deranged and destructive lie. For all intents and purposes, the residential schools hoax is finally dead.
But that does not mean that the Canadian government is admitting, outright, that it was wrong. That would take an ounce of integrity that they simply do not have. So instead, both political parties in Canada are now rallying around the idea that no one should be able to question the narrative that they&#8217;re now retreating from. In other words, Canada has now entered a kind of reality distortion field, where everyone knows the government was wrong for the last several years, but no one can admit it.
This is footage from just a couple of days ago. It aired on CBC. Watch:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="003 Conservative MLA" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/965JEm88974?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Those were conservative politicians in that clip. That&#8217;s Canada&#8217;s conservative party — supposedly the opposition to the liberals. They&#8217;re telling this politician to retract her factually accurate statement about unmarked gravesites in Canada. No one in that clip actually refutes anything she said. Instead, they just tell her that it&#8217;s inappropriate to state the truth about these unmarked graves, because it contradicts a broader narrative they want to establish.
As tempting as it may be to think that nothing in Canada affects us here in the United States, the truth is that we can&#8217;t ignore what&#8217;s happening there. And that&#8217;s not just because of the cruelty that&#8217;s been inflicted on Christian Canadians in recent years. That&#8217;s because, at the same moment that Canada is uniting behind malicious, anti-Christian defamation, the country&#8217;s leaders are desperately seeking to expand their power globally.
In particular, some of Canada&#8217;s most prominent politicians — like Chrystia Freeland, who could be the country&#8217;s next prime minister — are openly suggesting that Canada should join a nuclear alliance to handle the &#8220;threat&#8221; that, in her view, is posed by the United States. Watch:

This is the same woman who gleefully froze truckers&#8217; bank accounts when they committed the crime of peacefully protesting her government&#8217;s unlawful COVID mandates. She cheered as journalists were arrested and elderly women were trampled with horses in Ottawa&#8217;s downtown core, as a result of her declaration of martial law. She was one of the leading proponents of the mass-graves hoax. And she&#8217;s never apologized for any of it. Instead, now she wants Canada to join a hostile military alliance with foreign powers, while she&#8217;s contemplating the use of nuclear weapons against the United States. And at the moment, it&#8217;s not a stretch to say that she could replace Justin Trudeau as the leader of Canada&#8217;s liberal party — a party that, as we just saw, isn&#8217;t much different from the conservatives.
What this means is that, while the conclusion of the mass-graves hoax was anticlimactic at best, Canadian leaders actually see it as a springboard for more authoritarian crackdowns and more overt anti-Christian, anti-American hostility. Whatever credibility Canada had as a staunch American ally, or a legitimately Christian nation, is now completely gone. Canadian leaders would rather lie than admit the truth that everyone can clearly see. No country can survive for long when it&#8217;s committed, to such a great extent, to the denial of reality. And though they don&#8217;t seem interested in admitting it, that is the commitment Canadian politicians have now made.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau pushed back on President Donald Trump’s suggestions that Canada might become the 51st state after Canada defeated Team USA in the 4 Nations Face-Off hockey championship Thursday night. 
Trudeau’s comments came as Canada defeated Team USA 3-2 in an exciting overtime game in Boston. Just days before, Team USA dominated Canada in a 3-1 victory in Montreal after Canadian fans booed America’s national anthem. American fans returned the favor on Thursday, booing during the singing of &#8220;O Canada.&#8221; 
“You can’t take our country — and you can’t take our game,” Trudeau posted on X shortly after the championship game concluded.

Trump wrote on Truth Social on Thursday that he hoped Team USA would defeat Canada, which he said would “someday, maybe soon, become our cherished, and very important, Fifty First State.”
“I will be speaking before the Governors tonight in D.C., and will sadly, therefore, be unable to attend. But we will all be watching, and if Governor Trudeau would like to join us, he would be most welcome,&#8221; Trump said. 
While he couldn’t attend the championship, Trump called Team USA and General Manager Billy Guerin before the game. Guerin put Trump on speakerphone in the locker room.

“You guys are really talented,” Trump said. “I have great respect for hockey players. I’m a hockey fan. I love hockey. The talent, the skill that you have is crazy and just go out and have a good time tonight and I just want to wish you a lot of luck. You really are a skilled group of people.

“I could tell you honestly every person in here, players, staff, management, coaches, we are all proud Americans and we want to represent our country the best way we can and do our best to bring in a win tonight,” Guerin told Trump. “Thank you again on behalf of everybody.”

After a phone call with President Donald Trump on Monday afternoon, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that Canada will immediately enhance &#8220;coordination&#8221; with the U.S. and send 10,000 troops to the U.S./Canada border.
Canada&#8217;s change in policy comes after Trump imposed a 25% tariff on Canada and Mexico, along with a 10% tariff on China, until the countries did more to prevent the flow of illegal immigrants and drugs through U.S. borders. In response to Trump&#8217;s tariffs, Canada and Mexico retaliated with 25% tariffs on American goods. Trudeau said that after his call with Trump, the &#8220;tariffs will be paused for at least 30 days while we work together.&#8221;
&#8220;I just had a good call with President Trump. Canada is implementing our $1.3 billion border plan — reinforcing the border with new choppers, technology and personnel, enhanced coordination with our American partners, and increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl. Nearly 10,000 frontline personnel are and will be working on protecting the border,&#8221; Trudeau said in a <a href="https://x.com/JustinTrudeau/status/1886529228193022429" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> posted to X.
&#8220;In addition, Canada is making new commitments to appoint a Fentanyl Czar, we will list cartels as terrorists, ensure 24/7 eyes on the border, launch a Canada-U.S. Joint Strike Force to combat organized crime, fentanyl and money laundering,&#8221; he added. &#8220;I have also signed a new intelligence directive on organized crime and fentanyl and we will be backing it with $200 million.&#8221;
Trump confirmed the details of Trudeau&#8217;s announcement, <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/113942189236610107" target="_blank" rel="noopener">writing</a> in a post on Truth Social, &#8220;Canada has agreed to ensure we have a secure Northern Border, and to finally end the deadly scourge of drugs like Fentanyl that have been pouring into our Country, killing hundreds of thousands of Americans, while destroying their families and communities all across our Country.&#8221;
&#8220;As President, it is my responsibility to ensure the safety of ALL Americans, and I am doing just that. I am very pleased with this initial outcome, and the Tariffs announced on Saturday will be paused for a 30 day period to see whether or not a final Economic deal with Canada can be structured. FAIRNESS FOR ALL!&#8221; the president added.
Trudeau&#8217;s announcement comes just hours after Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum agreed to send 10,000 troops to the U.S./Mexico border in return for the U.S. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-pauses-tariffs-on-mexico-after-it-agrees-to-send-thousands-of-troops-to-border" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pausing</a> its proposed tariffs for one month.
Earlier on Monday, Trump <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-defends-tariffs-on-canada-we-dont-need-them-for-anything">reiterated</a> to reporters in the Oval Office that he would like to see Canada become &#8220;a state.”
“We give them protection, military protection. We don’t need them to build our cars. I’d rather see Detroit or South Carolina or Tennessee, any one of our states build the cars. They could do it very easily,” Trump said. “We don’t need [Canada] for the cars. We don’t need them for lumber. We don’t need them for anything. We don’t need them for energy. We have more energy than they do.”
“Why are we willing to lose between a hundred billion and two hundred billion dollars a year?” Trump asked. “We don’t need them. As a state, it’s different.”

Trudeau Caves To Trump: Canada To ‘Ensure’ Border Security After Tariff Threats

Canada To Send 10,000 Personnel To U.S./Canada Border, Appoint 'Fentanyl Czar' After Trump Tariffs

Border

U.S.

Trade networks in North America are under stress after Canada and Mexico promised to raise import duties on goods from the United States in response to tariffs from the same.
Though President Donald Trump promotes tariffs as an antidote to trade deficits and shrinking domestic industry, the budding trade war in North America has little to do with trade. Washington has accused its international neighbors of not doing enough to combat drug cartels and human traffickers, and that failure has had harmful spillover effects on the United States.
As a result, Trump has demanded Canada and Mexico crack down on cartels and illicit drug makers or suffer a 25% tariff on all exports to their number one trading partner, except for Canadian energy, which will be under a lesser 10% tariff. The tariffs, originally set to go into effect this week, are already being delayed.
Talks over the tariffs began on Monday with Trump speaking with Trudeau at least twice and Mexico now agreeing to <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/03/trump-tariffs-mexico-canada-china-sheinbaum-responds.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">send up to 10,000 troops</a> to police its border with the U.S.
“Mexico sends [a] ton of fentanyl into our country. Canada has seen a massive increase in fentanyl trafficking across its border. There are three ways of stopping this. The first is [to] ask nicely, which we’ve done. It’s gone nowhere,” Vice President JD Vance posted on Sunday. “Now we’re on to the consequences phase.”

Canada and Mexico coordinated over the weekend to announce their own plans for 25% retaliatory tariffs on a slate of American imports. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Canada would target $155 billion-worth of U.S. goods. The details of Mexico’s response have not been finalized, but officials are considering a carousel tariff that would rotate to different U.S. goods, according to <a href="https://www.wsj.com/economy/trade/canada-mexico-want-america-to-feel-the-pain-of-tariffs-too-f8119ccd?mod=hp_lead_pos1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Wall Street Journal</a>.
“The coming weeks will be difficult for Canadians, and they will be difficult for Americans. The level of cooperation, the level of effective partnerships between our two countries that have been established over decades and generations means that this trade action by the Americans and our response is going to have real consequences,” Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau <a href="https://x.com/JustinTrudeau/status/1885873761343480109" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> reporters.
Those consequences are projected to fall much more heavily on Canada and Mexico than the United States, an outcome that Trump likely intends to use as leverage in negotiations.
While the United States <a href="https://wits.worldbank.org/#" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sends</a> about a third of its exports to its northern and southern neighbors, Canada and Mexico send about 80% of their exports to the U.S. International trade also <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/02/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-imposes-tariffs-on-imports-from-canada-mexico-and-china/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">comprises</a> much larger portions of Canada’s and Mexico’s economies than the United States’.
If just the U.S. tariffs on Canada and Mexico were implemented, U.S. consumers would suffer an extra half-point of inflation over the next year, <a href="https://www.piie.com/microsites/2025/future-usmca" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according</a> to projections from the Peterson Institute for International Economics. The added inflation is likely to be concentrated in certain affected goods, such as fuel.
In contrast, Canada and Mexico would suffer an extra 1.7 and 2.3 points in inflation, respectively. The tariffs could also devastate some of their largest industries, such as vehicle manufacturing and oil and gas, because of the extent to which both countries rely on American markets.
The negative effects of tariffs projected by the Peterson Institute will be magnified with the addition of tariffs going from Canada and Mexico on exports from the U.S., according to experts.
To ratchet down trade tensions between the three countries that in 2019 signed the USMCA trade agreement, the White House has demanded action against drug trafficking and illegal immigration.
Mexico and its drug cartels are major pipelines for illegal drug smuggling and human trafficking into the United States. Canada has been, as well, to a much lesser extent. Trudeau appeared surprised that Trump initiated tariffs against Canada because of the flow of drugs and illegal immigration coming from Canada.
“We have one of the strongest, most secure borders between Canada and the United States. As I said, less than one percent of fentanyl going into the United States comes from Canada, less than one percent of illegal migrants going into the United States come from Canada,” Trudeau told reporters over the weekend.
The illicit movement and <a href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/fentanyl-produced-in-canada-1.7275200" target="_blank" rel="noopener">drugs</a> and <a href="https://cis.org/Bensman/Canadian-Policy-Behind-Surge-Illegals-and-Mexican-Cartel-Operatives-Northern-Border" target="_blank" rel="noopener">people</a> into the U.S. from Canada has surged in recent years, though it still remains low relative to the U.S. southern border.
Over the weekend, Trump and Vance have added on to the list of grievances with Canada its failure to meet NATO obligations on military spending and restrictions on imports from the U.S. as well as other issues.
&#8220;Canada has been very abusive of the United States for many years,” Trump <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-defends-tariffs-accuses-canada-being-very-abusive-united-states-video" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> Saturday. “I love the people of Canada. I disagree with the leadership of Canada and something is going to happen there.”
The White House accused Mexico of collaborating with the drug cartels that operate widely throughout the country. The collaboration has been widely recognized in Washington, though a formal accusation against the Mexican government has not been made until now.
“The Mexican DTOs have an intolerable alliance with the government of Mexico. This alliance endangers the national security of the United States, and we must eradicate the influence of these dangerous cartels from the bilateral environment,” Trump’s February 1 <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/02/imposing-duties-to-address-the-situation-at-our-southern-border/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">order</a> directing tariffs on Mexico says.
“The government of Mexico has afforded safe havens for the cartels to engage in the manufacturing and transportation of illicit drugs, which collectively have led to the overdose deaths of hundreds of thousands of American victims,” the order continues.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum called the White House’s accusation “slander,” <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/mexico-us-claim-cartel-alliance-slander-vows-tariff-retaliation/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according</a> to CBS News.
“If the United States government and its agencies wanted to address the serious consumption of fentanyl in their country, they can combat the sale of narcotics on the streets of their main cities, which they don&#8217;t do, and the money laundering generated by this illegal activity that has done so much harm to their population,” Sheinbaum said.

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/canada" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canada</a> and <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/mexico" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mexico</a> announced tariffs against the United States on Saturday in retaliation for a slate of new import duties President Donald Trump ordered against the U.S. neighbors and China.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Saturday that Canada is working with Mexico to push back against Trump’s tariffs. Trump ordered increased tariffs on goods from Canada, China, and Mexico over lack of sufficient action against human and drug trafficking that has poured into the U.S.
“I think Canadians understand that we need to respond to this,” said Trudeau, who is expected to leave office in a matter of weeks after stepping down as his party’s leader. “We’re certainly not looking to escalate, but we will stand up for Canada.”

Trump issued his own <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/113934450227067577">statement</a> on his social media platform Truth Social on Sunday condemning his critics and supporters of “the decades long RIPOFF OF AMERICA, both with regard to TRADE, CRIME, AND POISONOUS DRUGS that are allowed to so freely flow into AMERICA. THOSE DAYS ARE OVER!”
Trump ordered 25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico, with a lesser 10% tariff hike on Canadian energy imports. Trump also ordered a 10% additional tariff on Chinese goods. In return, Canada and Mexico announced their own 25% tariffs on a slate of U.S. goods.
Canada and Mexico are at a stark disadvantage in the brewing trade war with the United States, with their combined gross domestic product equaling about a seventh of the United States’. The United States also receives a significant majority of the exports from both countries, roughly three-quarters, according to <a href="https://www.wsj.com/economy/trade/canada-mexico-want-america-to-feel-the-pain-of-tariffs-too-f8119ccd?mod=hp_lead_pos1">The Wall Street Journal</a>.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum issued her own statement on social media <a href="https://x.com/Claudiashein/status/1885857655094415528">denouncing</a> the tariffs and claiming that Trump falsely accused the Mexican government of having ties to criminal cartels.
Chinese precursor chemicals have flowed into Mexico where drug cartels manufacture addictive and deadly drugs such as fentanyl that is trafficked into the United States, the White House said.
“In addition, the Mexican drug trafficking organizations have an intolerable alliance with the government of Mexico. The government of Mexico has afforded safe havens for the cartels to engage in the manufacturing and transportation of dangerous narcotics, which collectively have led to the overdose deaths of hundreds of thousands of American victims,” a White House fact sheet on Trump’s tariff order <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/02/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-imposes-tariffs-on-imports-from-canada-mexico-and-china/">says</a>.
Mexican drug cartels have a growing presence in Canada that is contributing to the flood of human trafficking and drugs that is surging into the United States as well, according to the White House.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said during an interview this week that &#8220;proud Canadians&#8221; specifically find their identities in &#8220;not&#8221; being an American.
Trudeau — who announced he was resigning as the leader of the Liberal Party, thus bringing his tenure as prime minister to a close in the coming months — made the remarks during a CNN interview on Tuesday afternoon.
CNN&#8217;s Jake Tapper asked Trudeau about President-elect Donald Trump mocking him as the &#8220;governor&#8221; of Canada and saying that Canada should become America&#8217;s 51st state.
&#8220;Did you have any interaction with him today?&#8221; Tapper asked.
<a href="https://get.dailywire.com/subscribe/plus/">JOIN THE MOVEMENT IN ’25 WITH 25% OFF DAILYWIRE+ ANNUAL MEMBERSHIPS WITH CODE DW25</a>
&#8220;No, not today, but that&#8217;s not going to happen,&#8221; Trudeau said. &#8220;Canadians are incredibly proud of being Canadian. One of the ways we define ourselves most easily is, well, we&#8217;re not American.&#8221;
&#8220;There is such a depth of pride that that&#8217;s not actually an issue,&#8221; he said. &#8220;What I think is happening in this is President Trump, who&#8217;s a very skillful negotiator, is getting people to be somewhat distracted by that conversation, to take away from the conversation around 25% tariffs on oil and gas and electricity and steel and aluminum and lumber and concrete, and everything the American consumers buy from Canada is suddenly going to get a lot more expensive if he moves forward on these tariffs.&#8221;

Justin Trudeau: ‘Incredibly Proud’ Canadians Define Ourselves As ‘Not American’

World

Canada is shaving off its creepy mustache (or is that peach fuzz?).
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that he is stepping down after nearly 10 years in power.
Trudeau quickly made a name for himself after taking over in 2015 and became a worldwide embarrassment for the male sex as he frolicked around Ottawa. Trudeau will mostly be remembered for opposing Canadian truckers in 2022 – who wanted the basic human freedom to make their own medical decisions – and for caving to Left-wing lunatics who push <a href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/trudeau-responds-danielle-smith-trans-policies-1.7103250" target="_blank" rel="noopener">transgenderism</a> on children and <a href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/trudeau-medical-assistance-dying-euthanasia-1.5307408" target="_blank" rel="noopener">euthanasia</a> on the disabled and depressed. But that wasn’t the only way Trudeau undermined masculinity with ineffectual leadership.  
Justin Trudeau was a “leader” who encapsulated the spirit of the woke age. 
In 2016, shortly after he took over as prime minister, Trudeau <a href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/trudeau-transgender-rights-1.3584482" target="_blank" rel="noopener">made</a> “gender identity” a protected class under the country’s discrimination and hate speech laws, a major step that led to Canada <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/canadian-father-jailed-after-misgendering-daughter-lands-win-in-appeal-court" target="_blank" rel="noopener">jailing</a> a father who “misgendered” his daughter. 
Trudeau also failed to stand up for the dignity and respect of Canadian women when, in 2023, he declared that men can be women if they want to be. In a <a href="https://x.com/JustinTrudeau/status/1633468195813330946">post</a> celebrating “incredible girls and women in our lives,” Trudeau claimed that women aren’t really that special at all because dudes are actually women too. 
“When women and girls are empowered, entire families, communities, and societies succeed. So today, as we mark #IWD2023 and celebrate the incredible women and girls in our lives, let’s keep working to build a more equal and equitable future. And with a disturbing rise in anti-transgender hate here in Canada and around the world recently, I want to be very clear about one more thing: Trans women are women. We will always stand up to this hate – whenever and wherever it occurs,” he wrote on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/JustinPJTrudeau/posts/when-women-and-girls-are-empowered-entire-families-communities-and-societies-suc/759160075566385/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">social media</a>.
How pathetic. 
Then earlier this year, as anti-Israel rioters set cars on fire in Montreal, Trudeau danced at a Taylor Swift concert in Toronto. 
At every turn, when the world needed strong men to lead us out of the darkness of leftism, Trudeau either failed to show up or caved to the leftist mob. And today we say good riddance. 
At Jeremy’s Razors, we know the importance of true unapologetic masculinity and good leadership: qualities desperately needed in our world today. <a href="https://www.jeremysrazors.com/tools/recurring/checkout_link?magic=eyJpdGVtcyI6IFt7ImlkIjogNDgyNzM0NDQ4OTY5ODEsICJxdWFudGl0eSI6IDEsICJzZWxsaW5nX3BsYW4iOiAzODIwODgwMDg1LCAic2VsbGluZ19wbGFuX2dyb3VwX2lkIjogMjY3MjI5NjE0OX1dfQ==&amp;store_id=152830" target="_blank" rel="noopener">JOIN JEREMY’S RAZORS TODAY</a> with our low-priced starter set for men, <a href="https://www.jeremysrazors.com/tools/recurring/checkout_link?magic=eyJpdGVtcyI6IFt7ImlkIjogNDgyNzM0NDQ4OTY5ODEsICJxdWFudGl0eSI6IDEsICJzZWxsaW5nX3BsYW4iOiAzODIwODgwMDg1LCAic2VsbGluZ19wbGFuX2dyb3VwX2lkIjogMjY3MjI5NjE0OX1dfQ==&amp;store_id=152830" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shave Boldy, Live Freely</a>!

Canada’s Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre on Tuesday blasted Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s defense against President-elect Donald Trump&#8217;s taunts of Canada becoming the United States’ “51st State.”
Trump has repeatedly <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/113782682597333035">hounded</a> Trudeau even as the struggling prime minister’s popularity has plummeted in Canada. The president-elect’s taunts came after weeks of threatening Canada with 25% tariffs and a demand to secure its border and stop illegal immigration into the United States.
Poilievre is the favorite to replace Trudeau as prime minister as soon as new parliamentary elections can be held. The Conservative Party leader in a statement Tuesday defended Canada against Trump’s calls to join the United States while simultaneously attacking Trudeau’s government and party for its feeble response.
“Canada will never be the 51st state. Period,” Poilievre said in a post on X. “We are a great and independent country.”

“We are the best friend to the U.S. We spent billions of dollars and hundreds of lives helping Americans retaliate against Al-Qaeda’s 9/11 attacks. We supply the U.S. with billions of dollars of high-quality and totally reliable energy well below market prices. We buy hundreds of billions of dollars of American goods,” he continued. “Our weak and pathetic NDP-Liberal government has failed to make these obvious points.”
Poilievre summarized what his agenda would be as prime minister, promising to build up Canada’s military and strengthen its borders and immigration policies. He also promised to cut taxes and regulations and support economic development.
“In other words, we will put Canada First,” Poilievre said.

Hours before Poilievre’s post, Trudeau put out a short statement asserting that “There isn’t a snowball’s chance in hell that Canada would become part of the United States.”
“Workers and communities in both our countries benefit from being each other’s biggest trading and security partner,” he <a href="https://x.com/JustinTrudeau/status/1876712025725796712">added</a>.
Poilievre’s Conservative Party is overwhelmingly <a href="https://newsinteractives.cbc.ca/elections/poll-tracker/canada/">favored</a> to win an outright majority in Canada’s parliament in the next election. The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) currently projects that the Conservative Party will win 227 of 338 total seats in the House of Commons. CBC projections show Conservatives with a 98% chance of winning a majority.
