Australia should look at the case of King Trump’s 25% Canada tariff and worry.
The excuses for the tariff—drugs and illegal immigrants—are nonsense.
President Donald Trump has repeatedly stated that Canada has allowed “millions and millions” of people to illegally enter the United States. However, with regard to Canada at least, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) data for Fiscal Year 2024 tells a different story. In that period, Border Patrol apprehended 23,721 people who illegally crossed the U.S.-Canada border, representing just 1.5% of nationwide Border Patrol apprehensions. In contrast, at the U.S.-Mexico border, Border Patrol reported more than 1.5 million apprehensions in the same year.
…In Fiscal Year 2024, USCBP seized 21,148 pounds of fentanyl at the southwest border, mostly smuggled from Mexico. In contrast, only 43 pounds were intercepted at the northern border. This means that less than 1% of all fentanyl seizures occurred at the U.S.-Canada border.
This looks personal to me. A King Trump 25% Trudeau tax for being an annoying woke imbecile.
Still, the personal humiliation of Trudeau has resulted in the same as Mexico.
