    U.S. President Donald Trump says he is terminating all trade negotiations with Canada over an advertisement by the Ontario government that uses the late U.S. president Ronald Reagan’s own words to send an anti-tariff message to American audiences.

    In a late-night post to his Truth Social platform, Trump attacked the ad, which he attributed to Canada rather than Ontario, as fraudulent and fake.

    “TARIFFS ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO THE NATIONAL SECURITY, AND ECONOMY, OF THE U.S.A.” Trump wrote. “Based on their egregious behavior, ALL TRADE NEGOTIATIONS WITH CANADA ARE HEREBY TERMINATED.”

    So I guess CUSMA is dead?

    No, why would it be? It’s already in effect, Trump would need to explicitly withdraw from it to make it stop being in effect.

    He might do that, of course. He’s randomly throwing tantrums and his dementia-riddled brain could come up with any random impulse for him to follow. But this isn’t that.

      Trump can fuck off.

      Fine, they need us more than we need them right now. I’m confident in that.

        He is not a politician with grace; he is a whiner with a baby attitude, one who also gets mad when he doesn’t get his own way. All I can say is, what a sad situation the Americans are in.

        It took ~16 years for Chile to get rid of their US installed military dictatorship when the US decided to ruin their popular social democracy and slaughter people and fuck up countless lives. And much longer to rebuild after Pinochet fell. I wouldn’t be suprised if it takes at least 16 years for parts of the US to start crawling out of their current dictatorship (with or without donny). And it sure looks like it’s going to be just as brutal if not more. It’s just getting started and there is a very long way for them to fall. 2025 is going to look like a very tame year compared to what is coming, I suspect.

            Once again proving what a trade deal with this person is worth. We should definitely be making sacrifices to secure a deal with this calm, level headed, emotional rock. It would surely not be casting pearls before swine.

              It’s called economic terrorism. Fascists try to financially harm anyone they disagree with… until they gain enough power to murder anyone they disagree with.

                      Yeah we will see 2025 as the year one elected official was not sworn in (they were elected in a bi-election), because of Trumps “big Beautiful Bill.” 2026 will be the year that elections are cancelled.

                      Remember there are still 2 and a bit months left for the US to collapse this year, and the government shutdown is still on!

                          At this point they should just put a travel ban on the Trump family from entering Canada.

                          I’d love to see Donny Jr and Eric cry getting turned away from visiting Vancouver.

                          DJTJ is only going to cry if that is where he was planning on getting his next bump from, Eric is going to cry when his Dad tells him that Vancouver is the one place that he will get emotional attention.

                              Canada/Ontario is not allowed to have the Reagan opinion that tariffs are bad in order for (totally constructive with progress) negotiations to resume?

                                  No problem, let’s also stop supplying power for the entire Northeast then. At this point our population is nearly 100% committed to dealing with the difficulties of cutting ties with the US.

                                  Just export tariffs on electricity, other energy, metals and potash. This still makes energy, manufacturing, cheaper for Canadians, while generating social revenue.

                                      why? genuinely curious why that would be bad to not have open borders with a country that clearly loves to threaten and extort and blackmail?

                                      if my street neighbours did that to me, I’d never grant them access to my property either.

                                        In 2026. That’s decades away.

                                        The US could announce withdrawal at any time with six months’ notice, sure, but that has not happened yet.
