WINNING! President Trump Responds After Trudeau Caves to Tariffs, Celebrates “FAIRNESS FOR ALL!”
President Trump has responded to Canada’s decision to work with the United States to secure the northern border just two days after he imposed tariffs on Canada’s imports.
President Trump imposed his long-awaited 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada and 10% tariffs on China on Saturday. This was met with pushback from Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who announced he would impose his own tariffs on the United States, which many in Canada think would be a big mistake.
In the fallout from the tariffs, within 24 hours, the Canadian dollar’s value reached a record low not seen since 2003, and Mexico’s peso also dropped 2%.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Sunday agreed to implement a $1.3 billion border plan to reinforce border security. He promised “new choppers, technology and personnel, enhanced coordination with our American partners, and increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl.”
“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,” Trudeau wrote. “Nearly 10,000 frontline personnel are and will be working on protecting the border.”
“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,” he added. “I have also signed a new intelligence directive on organized crime and fentanyl and we will be backing it with $200 million.”
“Proposed tariffs will be paused for at least 30 days while we work together,” he concluded.
