Trump NEEDS Canada, and PM Mark Carney Knows It... Trump's Tariffs Are State Suicide
from The Bill Kelly Podcast · host Bill Kelly
For someone who thinks he’s “the king of the deal”, Trump sure sucks at negotiating. Did you know that Canada provides more crude oil to the US than Mexico, Saudi Arabia and Iraq combined? And that’s just the tip of the (Canadian) iceberg. So, is Canada “ripping off” America, as Trump claims? Is the USA “subsidizing” Canadian lifestyles, or is it the other way around…? Canada has done a lousy job of beating our own drum when it comes to the beneficial impact we have on the US economy, and Prime Minister Mark Carney is on a mission to change that. Because the fact is, the US economy needs Canada. Let’s talk about it!In Episode 137 of The Bill Kelly Podcast, host Bill Kelly discusses the critical trade issues between Canada and the United States, particularly in light of recent statements and policies from President Trump. He emphasizes the importance of understanding the economic interdependence between the two countries and the misinformation surrounding trade relations. Kelly critiques Trump's approach to tariffs and trade negotiations, highlighting the negative impacts on both economies and the challenges faced by Canadian officials in communicating these realities.
