President Donald Trump will speak with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday afternoon before the reciprocal 25 percent tariffs between the United States and Canada take effect on Tuesday.
In a Truth Social post, Trump revealed he spoke with Trudeau on Monday morning and would talk with him again later in the day:
Canada doesn’t even allow U.S. Banks to open or do business there. What’s that all about? Many such things, but it’s also a DRUG WAR, and hundreds of thousands of people have died in the U.S. from drugs pouring through the Borders of Mexico and Canada. Just spoke to Justin Trudeau. Will be speaking to him again at 3:00 P.M.

I’m willing to bet the farm that the meeting will result in a deal where the tariffs will be suspended and Trudeau will do what Trump wants.
Mexico just caved today
The only question is how long it will take for Trudeau to cave.
You got a farm?
Trudeau has already resigned. Maybe better to talk to potential replacements?
My gentle Canadian wife believes that Trudeau’s stupidity is exceeded by his narcissism. She has even learned to appreciate Trump’s approach, noting that after a bold opening move, he is willing to pivot or walk things partly back, driven mainly by getting the best deal he can. Not her style, but she also understands that these are times that call for something out of the ordinary.
Not much of risk predicting that.
Mexico and Canada realizing the Chinese are a very large ocean away and USA is right here.
Someone in Canada my have a clue.
That was obvious from day 1.
I just wonder if he quits on the spot after speaking to Trump—that would be epic!
Trudeau will cave. He had to pretend to act like an actual man yesterday but we all knew that was just posturing and he would back down like the little bitch he is today.
We have to acknowledge that American demand for drugs is a part of this problem. We have a right to insist that Canada get control on its side, but Canada has the right to ask what we’re doing to squelch the insane appetite for street drugs in our country. Same with Mexico.
Canada has been run by outright globalist commies for going on 10 years now. Enough is enough. Time to play hardball with these people.
100%
Farmers for Chuck Grassley will get a carve out or supplement for 15 million.
You are right. We are responsible. Not Mexico. Not Canada. 0bama was right - we are the ones we’ve been waiting for. The only possible ‘fix’ is to somehow lower demand. The stuff will always be available. It cannot be completely eradicated. Never has been. Never will be.
Just Say “No”
