Trump Threatens Economic Sanctions on Canada

 

In a dramatic return to the Oval Office, U.S. President Donald Trump has announced his intention to impose significant tariffs on Canada and Mexico. Trump, who was inaugurated for his second term just a day ago, stated that he plans to implement a 25% tariff on Canadian and Mexican goods starting February 1.

The situation remains fluid, with both countries bracing for potential economic fallout.
