Summary
The White House claims Canada has “misunderstood” Trump’s new 25% tariffs as a trade war, while Mexico is cooperating.
Trump justified the tariffs by citing trade imbalances, illegal immigration, and fentanyl trafficking.
Canadian officials view the move as an economic attack, while Trump insists it is a negotiation tactic.
