With the support of Donald Trump, the United States risks tying up deals with one of its closest allies and its neighbor Canada, which is also one of Ukraine’s important partners. On the first day of his presidency, Trump plans to impose 25% tariffs on all Canadian goods, which will hit the country's economy, as stated by Truth Social.

What respect Trump has for Canada

Trump has two main claims to Canada: the security of the border and the imbalance in trade.

The United States is raising a land border with the two countries. Daytime with Mexico and nighttime with Canada. According to Trump, illegal migrants are smuggled through the Canadian border to the States and drugs arrive. Zokrema, language about fentanyl. This is a synthetic opioid, on the basis of which drugs similar to heroin are produced. He became a leading killer in the USA. Up to 70 thousand die soon in the region. people.

From June 2023 to Spring 2024, the US border border service (CBP) registered just under 199,000 “knots” of illegal immigrants at the border with Canada. These are the individuals who were caught illegally entering the United States and those who did not have the right to enter and tried to get into the country. In that same hour, the US government obtained approximately 5,245 kg of drugs, most importantly marijuana. This is less, less than 25,000 kg, gained during the same period earlier.

At one time, the amount of water is an order of magnitude less than that which will seep to the United States through the cordon with Mexico. During that same period, CBP recorded over 2.13 million border crossings between the United States and Mexico.

Canada is one of the United States' largest trading partners. Both countries, as well as Mexico, are included in the USMCA free trade zone – a name similar to the countries' first letters.

In this area, approximately 60% of the crude oil imported into the United States comes through pipelines from Canada. Through the production of shale oil, the United States is once again the largest oil producer in the world. However, many US naphtha refineries are built to process important crude oil from Canada, not light American oil. Therefore, the United States exports most of its products and continues to import naphtha from Canada. Also, some American companies have located their production facilities in Canada. As a result, in 2023 the trade deficit from Canada will amount to $119 billion.

Trump plans to correct the trade deficit with Canada in the same way as with other countries – through additional tariffs. In addition, tariffs may be subject to special restrictions and barriers.

Trudeau and Trump – a complicated relationship

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will make a private visit to Trump's residence at the Mar-a-Lago resort near Florida on the 30th of November.

< p dir="ltr">Having appointed Trudeau after the war, Russia and Trump agreed on the supply of trade and the security of cordons. In official reports, she was described as “good.” The Canadian prime minister informed the incoming US president that the number of migrants who cross the Canadian border illegally is dwarfed by those who arrive from Mexico.

According to Fox News, Trump was even more direct when he heard about the claims in Canada. In response to the threat of trade tariffs, Trudeau said that this time “the Canadian economy will be completely destroyed,” he said, according to the announcement of the two-day resolutions, which are present at the time of the resolution of both leaders.

Trump simply repeated: “Your country cannot survive without fleecing the United States by 100 billion dollars?” Trump further trolled by promoting Trudeau to make Canada the 51st US state and sarcastically adding that Trudeau could become his governor. Trump made it clear that there would be changes in Canada's order even before his inauguration – the 20th anniversary of the coming fate.

What can you say about Canada

In response to Trump's call, Canada will strengthen control over the border against illegal migrants. The Minister of Public Security of the region, Dominique Leblanc, stated that his government “can make additional investments” at the border, without providing specific details. Strict restrictions will be imposed, and migrants will not be able to travel through Canada to the United States without a valid permit.

“We will continue to tighten the nuts in this process so that they can move so that we continue to “The immigration system and the cordons that actually maintain the integrity and security that Canadians and Americans work on every day,” LeBlanc said.

The evidence for the possibility of tariff reductions is not so obvious. According to Radio Canada, the country is considering increasing its tariffs on American goods.

A tariff war could cause much harm in Canada and the United States. There are no less areas in which tariffs will be painful for Washington from a political point of view. Zokrema, Canada may threaten to impose tariffs on the US agricultural kingdom, such as dairy products and grain. This is aimed at the farmers of the central states, who consistently support Trump.

The same is seen as an attack against companies whose leaders are close to Trump. Among the options is Tesla, the remains of which are headed by Elon Musk and will now enter the hands of the closest elected US President.

It seems that earlier RBC-Ukraine wrote that Trump is planning a trade war with China and the European Union and how this could affect Ukraine.
