Canada warns world about U.S. trade aggression
Canadian Foreign Minister Mélanie Joly has responded strongly to U.S. President Donald Trump's increased tariffs on Canadian goods. While Trump initially threatened a 50 percent tariff, he has now set it at 25 percent, which Joly criticized as unjustifiable. Joly emphasized that if the U.S. can impose such tariffs on Canada, then no country is safe. She rejected Trump's claims about national security and stated that Canada contributes to U.S. security through its steel and aluminum. The relationship between the U.S. and Canada has worsened, with Trump suggesting annexation of Canada. Joly firmly stated that Canadians will not yield to what she described as coercion from the U.S.
