It’s like a fistfight between conjoined twins: The United States and Canada are throwing tariffs and insults at each other tit-for-tat in one of the most unnecessary trade wars in recent memory.
“I don’t want Canadian cars. I don’t want Canadian parts. I don’t want Canadian anything,” President Donald Trump posted Sunday, before comparing the tariffs on Canada to his administration’s war against Iran.
But while Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney try to check each other into the boards, China is skating free — scoring economic goals at will and choking out North American manufacturing.
Carney lies.
