US President Donald Trump has once again made controversial remarks about Canada. During a conversation with reporters last evening, he expressed his affection for Canada and its people but stated that it is not right for the US to support Canada. He suggested that without US support, Canada would not exist as a country.
Trump claimed that the US provides Canada with a subsidy of $200 billion every year, suggesting that Canada would struggle to function without it. He also reiterated his idea of making Canada the 51st state.
However, Canadian experts have refuted these claims, pointing out that while the US has a trade deficit with Canada—meaning Canada exports more to the US than it imports—this trade relationship is beneficial for the US economy. Experts argue that the US receives goods at lower prices through this partnership, and such benefits should not be considered a subsidy.
