USA: Oye! Times readers Get FREE $30 to spend on Amazon, Walmart…U.S. President Donald Trump says he is ending trade discussions with Canada and will soon impose a blanket tariff on all of the country’s products in retaliation for Ottawa’s digital services tax.
In a Truth Social post Friday afternoon, Mr. Trump abruptly broke off talks, which Prime Minister Mark Carney has said were aimed at reaching a deal by late July.
“Based on this egregious Tax, we are hereby terminating ALL discussions on Trade with Canada, effective immediately,” Mr. Trump wrote. “We will let Canada know the Tariff that they will be paying to do business with the United States of America within the next seven day period.”
Canada is set to start levying the digital services tax next week.
Mr. Trump said Canada is already “a very difficult Country to TRADE with” because of its protected dairy industry. He described the digital services tax as “a direct and blatant attack on our country.”
