Canada and Mexico Respond to Trump’s Promises of Tariffs if Border Isn’t Operating Properly

President Trump shared last night the he will enforce additional tariffs with Mexico and Canada when he steps in office on January 20 if these two countries don’t begin preventing the massive invasion of illegals into the US from their respective borders. 

President Trump isn’t playing around.  He let Mexico and Canada know it.

In response, Canada’s tremendously unpopular Prime Minister Trudeau called President Trump within hours.   He shared that he was going to meet with others in Canada to address President Trump’s call for action.

Mexico too responded to President Trump. It’s communist and cartel linked leader responded that she may increase tariffs on US goods.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum on Tuesday warned U.S. President-elect Donald Trump of dire economic consequences for both countries from tariffs and suggested possible retaliation following his threat of across-the-board tariffs of 25% on Mexico and Canada.

“To one tariff will follow another in response and so on, until we put our common businesses at risk,” Sheinbaum said in a letter to Trump, which she read at a press conference and planned to send later in the day, warning that tariffs would cause inflation and job losses in both countries.

Sheinbaum added she would also seek a call with Trump and send a letter to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
Trump, who takes office on Jan. 20, said late on Monday he would impose a 25% tariff on imports from Canada and Mexico until they clamped down on drugs, particularly fentanyl, and migrants crossing the border.

Mexico is the United States’ top trade partner as of September, representing 15.8% of total trade, followed by Canada at 13.9%. The U.S. is also Mexico’s top trade partner.

Tariffs instigated by Mexico will fail badly for the communist leader and cause Mexico’s economy to fail.

President Trump is already ruling the world.
