U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday slammed Canada’s high tariffs on American dairy and lumber products, warning of retaliatory measures unless the tariffs are reduced.
Speaking to reporters from the Oval Office, Trump accused Canada of imposing excessive tariffs, particularly on dairy, with some tariffs reaching as high as 250%.
“Canada is charging us over 200% for dairy products—250% in some cases,” Trump said. “When I left office, we had that well taken care of. But under Biden, they just kept raising it. It’s very difficult to deal with the Canadian representatives.”
