In a post earlier on Truth Social, U.S. President Trump claims that he has instructed the Secretary of Commerce to add an additional 25% tariff on all steel and aluminum coming into the United States from Canada, in response to a recent retaliatory tariff of 25% by the Province of Ontario, on electricity used to power 1.5 million homes in Michigan, Minnesota and New York; with Trump stating that he will be declaring a National Emergency on Electricity within these States.
President Trump then threatens to “permanently shut down the automobile manufacturing business in Canada” if Canada does not drop a 250% to 390% tariff on U.S. dairy products, which he doesn’t state only kicks in after a certain quantity of tariff-free U.S. dairy enters Canada, a quantity that was originally negotiated and agreed to by Trump during the USMCA in 2018.
Finally to end out the post, President Trump then goes on a several sentence “rant” about how all tariffs will end and taxes will be reduced if Canada agreed to become the 51st State of the United States, with him stating, “The artificial line of separation drawn many years ago will finally disappear, and we will have the safest and most beautiful Nation anywhere in the World — And your brilliant anthem, “O Canada,” will continue to play, but now representing a GREAT and POWERFUL STATE within the greatest Nation that the World has ever seen!”
