'Very Dangerous': Trump Hits Canada With His Strangest Warning Yet
HuffPost
Critics on social media gave the president the cold shoulder over this comment.
President Donald Trump on Thursday warned Canada that China could force the country to stop playing hockey.
Trump was asked about British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Chinese President Xi Jinping working to improve trade cooperation when his answer took a sudden turn.
“It’s very dangerous for them to do that, and it’s even more dangerous, I think, for Canada to get into business with China,” Trump said. “Canada’s not doing well. They’re doing very poorly and you can’t look at China as the answer.”
China and Canada earlier this month struck a deal to reduce tariffs on canola and electric vehicles, and agreed to work on increasing cooperation.
Trump ― who has long had a tense relationship with Canada ― hasn’t been happy about that, threatening tariffs of up to 100% against Canada, and lashed out again in his Thursday comments.
