BREAKING NEWS / President Trump Makes Massive Announcement about trade talks with Canada

Trump admin will inform Canada within the ‘next seven day period’ of what tariff it will pay to do business with the US.

President Donald Trump said on Friday that the U.S. is terminating all trade discussions with Canada.

Trump cited Canada’s digital services tax on American tech companies as the reason for ending trade talks.

“They are obviously copying the European Union, which has done the same thing, and is currently under discussion with us, also. Based on this egregious Tax, we are hereby terminating ALL discussions on Trade with Canada, effective immediately,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.

Trump said the administration will inform Canada within the “next seven day period” of what tariff it will pay to do business with the U.S.

The president added in his post that Canada is “a very difficult Country to TRADE with” and claimed that Canada has levied tariffs of up to 400% on U.S. dairy products.

Following Trump’s announcement, the U.S. dollar gained 0.7% against the Canadian dollar.

Stocks pared their earlier gains on the news. The benchmark S&P 500 index reached an all-time high after rising 0.59% as of early afternoon, though it sank on the president’s announcement to a gain of about 0.21% as the market neared the end of this week’s trading.

Canada’s digital services tax took effect in June 2024 and requires large businesses, whether they’re headquartered in Canada or elsewhere, to pay a 3% tax on revenue earned from engaging with online users in Canada if they meet certain conditions.
