On August
25, 2026, Trump shared the message on Truth Social and reposted it widely,
stating 'Over the last 10 years, the United States lost, on average, 60 Billion
Dollars a year with Canada.
No more! President DJT.' Official data shows a 2025 goods deficit of $48.3 billion, narrowing to $27.35 billion when services are included, with energy imports like crude oil driving much of the gap.
The post comes as the U.S. slaps 50% tariffs on $20 billion of Canadian goods like dairy and lumber after talks collapsed, prompting Canada's retaliation pledge and renewed debate over trade balances under USMCA.
