(Finance) – The President of the United States, Donald Trumpordered his administration of Increase the duties on the Canadian imports of steel and aluminum of a further 25%, bringing the total duties to 50% from Wednesday morning.
“On the basis of Ontario, Canada, which imposes a 25%rate on the electricity coming in the United States, I commissioned my secretary to the trade to add an additional rate of 25%, 50%, on all steel and aluminum coming to the United States from Canada, one of the nations with the highest rates in the world – wrote on its social profile Truth – this will enter into force tomorrow morning, March 12. Canada must immediately eliminate its anti-American rate for farmers From 250% to 390% on various US dairy products, which has long been considered scandalous “.
“Soon I will declare a national emergency for electricity in the threatened area – he added – this will allow the United States to quickly do what must be done to alleviate this abusive threat from Canada. If other striking and longtime rates will not be eliminated from Canada, I will substantially increase, on April 2, the rates on cars coming to the United Stateswhich, essentially, will definitively close the automotive production activity in Canada. Those cars can be easily produced in the United States! In addition, Canada pays very little for national security, counting on the United States for military protection. We are subsidizing Canada for a total of over 200 billion dollars a year. WHY??? This cannot continue. The only sensible thing is that Canada becomes our beloved fifty -each state. This would make all the rates and everything else completely disappear. The Canadian taxes will be reduced substantially, they will be safer, militarily and in another way, that ever, there will be no more northern border problems and the largest and most powerful nation in the world will be bigger, better and stronger than ever “.
