Canadian PM Carney Shuts Off Trumps G7 Speech as It Was Self-Promotional and Headed Off The Rails
MIFFED Trump Left G7 Summit Shortly After Due to 'Important Situation', and Refused to Sign G7 Statement in Canada PLUS Called for Russia to be Re-Admitted to G7 Trump Cancels on Australia at The G7 ?Albanese Had Hoped to Meet Him at The G7 Summit. But Trump Met With PM Starmer and Signed The 'Special LOW TARIF' They'd Agreed Because 'He liked Him And The UK' The Guardian 17 JUN 2025 Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney interrupted a question and answer session with Donald Trump at Mondays G7 summit before the U.S. president got too much into the weeds discussing ICE raids on blue cities As Trump began to rehash his usual talking points, claiming former President Joe Biden allowed murderers, killers, people from gangs, people from jails into the United States, the Canadian leader and host of the meeting which is being held in Alberta stepped in. If you dont mind, Im going to exercise my role, if you will, as G7 CHAIR, since we actually have to start the meeting to address some of the big important issues, Carney said. As the press yelled questions, and Trump appeared willing to talk more, the event was hurriedly ended. Holmes noted the significance of Carneys action when MIFFED Trump Left G7 Shortly After Due to 'Important Situation', without naming what Trump Called Russias Exclusion From G7 a Very Big Mistake As the Group of Seven leaders gathered for a summit in Canada on Monday focusing on conflict and trade, US Donald Trump bemoaned the exclusion of Russia. I think you wouldnt have a war right now if you had Russia in, he told Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, referring to Moscows full scale invasion of Ukraine, launched in 2022. He added that Russian President Vladimir Putins absence from the table made things much more difficult. The G7 format of talks between the seven major industrialized nations has existed since 1975. Russia became a full member of the group in 2002, and the format was called the G8 for 12 years. But Russia was excluded in 2014 after Moscow annexed the Black Sea peninsula of Crimea. Since then, the format has continued as the G7, made up of Canada, the United States, Britain, Germany, France, Italy and Japan. Putin was very offended when he was banned from the group, Trump continued. He said that was why Putin talks to no one but him.....

Blatant ATTACK- Trumps REVENGE on Carney- RAGES at Canada as He Kills Trade Talks
Trump says US terminating trade talks with Canada Effective IMMEDIATELY REUTERS 28 JUN 2025 ![]() Trump announced on Truth Social that Canada will impose an additional tax on U.S. digital services. We have just been informed that Canada, a very difficult Country to TRADE with, including the fact that they have charged our Farmers as much as 400% Tariffs for years, on Dairy Products, has just announced that they are putting a Digital Services Tax on our American Technology Companies, which is a direct and blatant attack on our Country, claimed Trump. Based on this egregious Tax, we are hereby terminating ALL discussions on Trade with Canada, effective immediately. We will let Canada know the Tariff that they will be paying to do business with the United States of America within the next seven day period. Thank you for your attention to this matter Trump said. Trump appeared to announce in passing on Thursday that he reached a trade deal with China; however, Kevin Hassett, director of the National Economic Council, told Fox News that there was NO deal with China, and that the deal with India was pending. Trump aimed to have 90 trade deals in 90 days however, the only one the administration has managed to secure is with the United Kingdom. ![]() https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xuaw0tnzu6M |

Tariff CHAOS; DICTATOR Trump Threatens Canada With 35% Tariff Sending Market Tumbling
-MORE MONEY For CUNNING Trump When He Back-Tracks & Markets Climb Again Trump Threatens 35% Tariff on Canadian Goods Says May DOUBLE What Other Nations Are Charged REUTERS 11 JUL 2025 ![]() DICTATOR Trump has threatened a 35 percent tariff on Canadian goods and says he may soon double what other nations are charged. ![]() Trump is playing hardball with countries yet to make fresh trade deals with his administration following his so called Liberation Day in April. In a letter sent to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney late Thursday, Trump said the U.S. will charge a 35 percent tariff on goods imported from Canada starting 1 August. Trump posted a copy of the letter on his Truth Social account. Its unclear if the new threatened tariff rate will apply to all imported goods. Trump has already imposed hefty levies on Canada, one of the largest trading partners of the U.S., since taking office. In Thursdays letter, Trump told Carney it was in response to his countrys, failure to stop fentanyl from pouring into our Country. In February, Canadas then Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said fewer than 1 percent of street fentanyl in the U.S. comes from Canada. To justify some of his latest tariffs, the president has declared national emergencies involving illegal immigration, the fentanyl crisis, and the trade deficit, relying on a 1977 law called the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, or IEEPA. Trump added in his letter, The flow of Fentanyl is hardly the only challenge we have with Canada, writing that the country charges extraordinary Tariffs to our Dairy Farmers He said his administration will, perhaps, consider an adjustment to this letter if Canada works to stop the flow of fentanyl into the U.S. Canadian goods that are not under the U.S. Mexico Canada trade agreement Trump brokered during his first term are already subject to a 25 percent tariff. Canadian energy imports face a 10 percent levy. Canada has also hit the U.S. with retaliatory tariffs, including a 25 percent levy on live animals, meat, dairy, eggs and honey https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Brxs3tCXvC0 I Dont Deal With That Kind of Bullsh*t?

Trump and Von Der Leyen Announce 15% Tariff US/EU Trade Deal
Agreement includes 15% baseline tariff for most EU exports to US after deal reached at Scotland crunch talks Trumps Deal With The UK Remains at 10% The Guardian 29 JUL 2025 ![]() Trump has announced a deal with the EU to end four months of difficult negotiations between Washington and Brussels and avert a damaging transatlantic trade war, imposing a 15% import tariff on most EU goods half the threatened rate. The European Commission chief, Ursula von der Leyen, said we have a deal after a 40 minute meeting with Trump at his Turnberry golf resort in Scotland where the US president is on holiday for the weekend. She described it as a big deal, a huge deal that would bring stability and predictability to both sides.. The two biggest economies should have a good trade flow, she said. It solves a lot of stuff and was a great decision, said Trump, describing the agreement, which also involved the EU agreeing to spend tens of billions of dollars more on US energy products, as a powerful deal and an important partnership. This is this is really the biggest trading partnership in the world, so we should give it a shot, he had said before the private meeting started. Keeping the EU delegation, who had flown in on Sunday for the meeting, on tenterhooks to the end, the US president had repeated less than an hour earlier that the chances of a deal were only a 50/50, and that three or four sticking points remained. Von der Leyen said the meeting was tough and very difficult. Referring to a pre meeting with Trump in front of the cameras, she later told reporters at Glasgow airport You saw the tension at the beginning. So we had to work hard to come to a common position. Under the agreement, the US will levy a 15% baseline tariff for most EU exports to the US, limiting a higher tariff. However, the rate is higher than before Trump came to power, and a 50% tariff remains on steel exports a setback for that industry. There was initial confusion over pharmaceuticals after Trump said the sector would not be included. Speaking to reporters at Prestwick airport in Glasgow a short time later, von der Leyen said they were included but there were no guarantees of later increases in import duties. It is agreed that we have 15% for pharmaceuticals. Whatever the decisions later on is of the president of the United States how to deal with pharmaceuticals in general Globally, thats on a different sheet of paper, she said. She also revealed zero tariffs will apply to a range of other sectors including all aircraft and component parts, certain chemicals, certain generics, semiconductor equipment, certain agricultural products, natural resources and critical raw materials German Chancellor Friedrich Merz welcomed the deal, saying it averted a trade conflict that would have hit Germanys export driven economy and its large auto sector hard. German carmakers VW, Mercedes and BMW were some of the hardest hit by the 27.5% US tariff on car and parts imports now in place. Italys prime minister, Giorgia Meloni, said it was positive that a trade deal had been reached but added that she needed to see the details. Italy is one of the biggest European exporters to the US, with a trade surplus of more than ?40bn. Under the terms of the deal, Brussels will agree to buy, over three years, $750bn worth of oil, gas, nuclear fuel and semi conductors, including liquified gas, while at the same time agreeing to invest $600bn in the US, a deal that includes purchases of military equipment. However, Trump retains the ability to increase the tariffs in the future if European countries do not live up to their investment commitments, a senior US administration official told reporters on Sunday evening. The deal stabilises the ?1.4tn trade between the EU and the US and avoids a 30% tariff rate Trump threatened to impose on 1 August if talks had collapsed. Speaking on a plane back to Brussels, the EU trade commissioner, Maros Sefcovi, said Trump was a very tough negotiator and the atmosphere was very intense AND..
