Today, Canada’s premiers met in Charlottetown to discuss how we can stand up to tariffs, support our workers and unlock our country’s incredible potential.
Team Canada is united as we work to protect Canadians.
WATCH: “Because this is just silly. And, at the end of the day, the United States needs to decide what they want. Do they want a strong partner in Canada, where we work together? Or are they keen to go it alone?” - Premier David Eby

Rep. Smith: "Apparently this fire's up in Canada and the wind is blowing south, so it's Canada's fault. We have to slap a 50% tariff on them. This is the way we govern? It's insane."
Donald Trump is facing intense scrutiny over the billions his administration has raked in from Venezuela that now appear to have vanished into thin air. https://t.co/BZkOCe4eZ5
As an Iraq and Afghanistan combat veteran who lost 13 of my brothers in combat, hear me when I say this:
F#CK YOU @POTUS and your lap dog @PeteHegseth.
Wab Kinew on Donald Trump's remarks about Canadian wildfires: "Anybody who's making comments like that is not showing basic human decency. And I would remind our American friends that Manitoba had wildfire fighters in your country this wildfire season helping to put out American wildfires. And we'll continue to do that no matter what the Trump administration says because that's what decent people do."
President Trump promised to lower prices. Instead, he's slapping a 50% tariff on many Canadian goods that economists warn will raise costs for American families and businesses. Americans don't need another self-inflicted tax hike—they need an economic strategy that brings prices down, not another reckless trade war. https://t.co/7OMOiBZiNF
Nothing new to use as an excuse?
Around 90% of firearms seized at the Canadian border originate in the United States, and about 88% of crime guns recovered in Toronto that can be traced are linked to the U.S.
The U.S. is also the primary source of cocaine and methamphetamine entering Canada. Border seizure data show that roughly two-thirds of narcotics seizures involve drugs entering Canada from the U.S., while fewer than one-fifth involve drugs headed south into the U.S.
I support stronger border security to stop guns and drugs from entering Canada, just as I support the United States doing the same.
But if we’re talking about accountability, it’s worth looking in the mirror, Chad.
Once again, President Trump is picking a fight with our closest ally and next-door neighbor: Canada. He's reaching back to a Depression-era law that hasn't been touched in nearly a century, and legal experts already expect it to be struck down in court.
Western New Yorkers understand this relationship better than almost anyone in the country. Our industries thrive because we grow our trade with Canada, not because we tax it. These tariffs will raise prices for every American, and my community will be among the first to feel it.
Instead of picking fights with our closest friend, President Trump should be focused on doing the job he was elected to do: making life more affordable for working families.

I took the 8 and 11yo to @agotoronto today for The Impressionist Revolution: Monet to Matisse from the Dallas Museum of Art.
I didn’t say a word about Monet or why he matters.
So it was interesting when they both just stopped dead in front of The Water Lily Pond (Clouds) and stared for a few minutes.
Then my daughter turns to me and says, “Dad, I think Monet’s better than Bob Ross.”
🙂
This isn't just about Canada. It's a warning shot to every trading partner: even if you have a deal, retaliation may bring tariffs anyway. That makes deals less credible.

Trump will do just about anything except lower costs for Americans.
His reckless proposal to slap 50% tariffs on Canadian goods would raise prices on families and small businesses already shouldering the burden of this administration’s chaotic policies.
