Ever since Donald Trump became the President of America, the condition of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has worsened. They are beginning to feel scared. They feel that Trump might take some tough decision against them or Canada. That is why Justin Trudeau ran away to America on Saturday. Talked with Donald Trump there for about three hours. The meeting between the two took place at a time when Trump had announced the imposition of huge tariffs on imports from Canada and China a day earlier. This is in danger of breaking Canada’s back. It is also being claimed that he has also talked about Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Nijjar and relations with India. But this has not been confirmed.
Even during Trump’s first term, his relations with Justin Trudeau were not good. He used to make statements about Trump every day. But now they are afraid that if Trump takes any tough decision, then difficulties will arise for them in the coming elections. Donald Trump follows the policy of America First. Because of this, business wars with many countries come out openly. He imposed tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminium. This increased difficulties for Trudeau. Because Canada exports large quantities of steel and aluminum to America.
How dependent is Canada on America?
Ever since the Trump administration has announced the imposition of new tariffs on Canadian exports, their problems have increased further. Canada’s economy is largely dependent on America. About 75% of it is exported to America. Canada has exported goods and services worth $423 billion to the US in 2023. In such a situation, such decisions of Trump can increase troubles for him. Canada is already struggling with many challenges. Inflation has increased rapidly. The popularity of Trudeau’s party is continuously declining. In such a situation, there is pressure on Trudeau to appear strong. US President Joe Biden had already said that if Trump wins, relations between America and Canada are going to deteriorate.
Will Trump really hurt Trudeau?
As soon as Trump made the statement, Justin Trudeau had said that whenever Trump makes such a statement, it clearly means that he is planning to implement it. And if they do this, it will not only cause loss to Canada, but all the businessmen of America will also have to suffer loss. It is our responsibility to tell the public about such things. Tell the American administration how much damage it can cause. Their decision will increase prices for American citizens and there will be loss there too.
