Not really. Both nations need the American market more than America needs them. And both economies are way too small to shake the US.
When you export products that are not unique or spectacular, you have zero control over the market but when you are the world's biggest market, you control everything

They will cave in to America las las.
Mexico is already feeling it.
Canadian economy is not even as big as texts economy.
It is like ghana trying to fight nigeria.
Donald trump is trying to make America a production centred economy again.
God bless America.
How will that work with US domestic labour cost so high? It will slow down consumer spending, which the US economy can't do without.

Huge tarrifs as well can't stop the drug epidemic in the US.

and you think Trump is in good terms with Europe?
OPICANTO2223:
The truth is that Canada will suffer more. Forex inflow will reduce the purchasing power for other trade Canada will get involved outside USA.

Exchange rate will skyrocket in Canada and Mexico. USA can seek alternative route possibly from Europe

Canada will feel the tariff hit most.

China cant even be bothered. China is now too strong and economically too powerful to be bullied by some nonsense tariff. Americans would be the ones to pay for the tariff imposed on Chinese imports.
The tariff import Trump levied on china in his first tenure is still there, Biden increased it yet china export to USA soared from 450 to 560 billion dollars within same period. 10% tariff will change nothing.
It will take more than tariff to shift manufacturing away from china.

25% tariff on Mexico import is the most foolish decision of all. Most American companies manufacturing in Mexico are those who moved their factories from china to be closer to home.
These companies produce some of their cheaper products in Mexico so they can stay competitive. It's an integrated manufacturing assembly line btw Mexico and USA.
The truth is if USA wants to move his manufacturing back home and remain competitive, they NEED MEXICO.

Canada economy is heavily dependent on export to America. 75% of their products ends up in the USA. 25% tariff will be a killer on Canada's economy.
Unfortunately, Trump doesn't want to talk to Trudeau, He even insulted him by calling him Canadian governor.
Trudeau should swallow his pride and do what's best for canada. He should call for general election and Canadians better vote in conservative govt, that's their only saving grace. Maybe, Elon Musk can help them talk to trump.

The fentanyl and immigration thing is a ruse. Only 4000 migrants crossed illegally to USA from Canada last year and only 40 pounds of fentanyl out of 21,000 pounds imported to USA came from Canada.

Trump is simply looking for ways to bring manufacturing back home and it seems Canada is a soft target.

fergie001:
United States President , Trump posted on social media that the tariffs were necessary “to protect Americans,” pressing the three nations to do more to curb the manufacture and export of illicit fentanyl and for Canada and Mexico to reduce illegal immigration into the U.S. The action fulfilled one of Trump’s commitments to voters but threw the global economy and Trump’s own political mandate to lower prices into turmoil.

Trump’s order includes a mechanism to escalate the rates charged by the U.S. against retaliation by the other countries, raising the specter of an even more severe economic disruption.



The White House

CANADA, MEXICO & CHINA respond:



Justin Trudeau
Outgoing Prime Minister of Canada





David Eby
Premier, Province of British Columbia, Canada




Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo
President of Mexico




China's Ministry of Commerce


In his reaction, the Governor of Texas, Greg Abbott has reacted to Trudeau's, press conference;



Governor of Texas
This doesn't look good for everyone.

Same thing happened in 2020. Nobody bothered to scrutinised Biden during the campaign. They just wanted Trump out.
Most Americans didn't even know Biden had dementia until.he became President.
Now history is again repeating itself.

But I still like Trump sha. His madness no be here but his determination to get things done is very impressive.

This is not a fair fight. The US has much upper hands. All these countries rely heavily on the US import to grow their economy. Even the retaliation may harm their economy more than it would do to the US economy.

For fact check.. The US is China's biggest importer. The US import from China more than the whole EU combined.

As of Canada, they are literally reliant on the US importation (of raw materials).
Alternatives choke
Try China na

China can manipulate their economy to survive,but I pity Canada and Mexico.

Trump wants fair trade and balance in trade. If he does fight now, Americans will become consumers like Nigerians in the next decade.
America cannot survive in a fair trade. Stop lying to yourself

This is unnecessary. Politics is being discussed, yet chose to insult the Prophet.
All that separates you from the terrorists is the opportunity and the access to lethal weapons. The hatred you carry is a poison and will lead you to your doom.
